I am sorry, Mrs. Carter, but what does this have to do with intercollegiate athletics? It's 100 percent the NBA. The NBA does not allow players to enter the league until one year after HS graduation. Wendell could play any place on earth except the NBA and take whatever is offered as salary. As it turns out, the colleges offer the exact same deal to every athlete -- free education and some stipends in return for joining an athletic team. Why are the NCAA and the colleges at fault?

'When I got on the bus for my first road game at Duke, I saw that every player was carrying textbooks or laptops. I coached in the SEC for 25 years, and I had never seen that before, not even once.' - David Cutcliffe to Duke alumni in Washington, DC, June 2013
