I am thrilled to announce my 10th Scorum Sports Cast! You can find me @thesportsguru and I will be giving you the best 5-10 minute sports rants here on Scorum every day. On today’s episode, I will cover the new ruling in the NCAA that will affect College Basketball and the NBA Draft.
The rule was that if you entered the NBA Draft and hired an agent, you could not come back to play in college if you are not drafted. But that rule has now been changed to allow the basketball player to return to his school and keep his eligibility if he is not drafted. That is a great move by the NCAA and is much more fair to the players.
One of my favorite players, Fred Van Vleet, was considering testing the NBA Draft a few years ago when he was a junior, but due to the old rule, he decided not to. Fred grew up not too far from where I am writing this and is a great success story. He just signed a two year 18 million dollar contract with the Toronto Raptors after starting his NBA career in the G League.
I would love to tell you all about it in my new Scorum Sports Cast. To check out my 10th show, just click the play button below. I look forward to hearing your input and comments. Cheers!
