I agree with what most of you are saying, if you are mentally not ready for the NBA then you should wait and go to college first. BUT college is not all that it is made out to be...as a matter of fact the only reason I'm here is because in order to accomplish my career goal I need this degree. If my goal was to be in the NBA...honestly that would be my first priority not college. Once I'm in the league I can ALWAYS go to college...but if I post pone the NBA for college I'm risking getting an injury or them losing interest in me because I'm gone for 4 years. I think that once you are in the league it is important for these players to get some education in whatever they could see themselves doing after the NBA, just in case their time in the NBa was cut short unexpectedly. But to risk getting a spot in the NBA to take philosophy 101 is crazy to me. Don't get me wrong I value education, but some of the wisest/smartest people I know never went to college...College will always be there for an NBA player...but the NBA may not always be there for a college student.
