If you where McDermott and got into the top five, which of the two scenarios would you choose?
A) Head into the NBA after your senior season was over, and make millions?
B) Transfer to another school and play one year as a graduate student, with the possibility of becoming the NCAA all-time leading scorer, then go into the NBA and make millions?
Obviously the safe bet would be to head to the NBA, because you never know what might happen during that extra season that could put your NBA career in jeopardy.
But on the other hand, you could break a record that has stood for almost 45 years, and with the way college basketball is now with players leaving early, could almost never be broken again.
Just wondered what everyone thought was on this scenario?
P.S. Not sure about anyone else, but this eight day break is killing me. I am ready for some Duke bball tomorrow night!
