Fueled by the Labron James frenzy I'm sure this year the networks will have a tremendous amount of discussion on the high school to NBA trend that is becoming so prevalent with good players.
I used to be in the camp that said that all players should go to college but I've changed my mind over the last few years, mainly because of why I'm going to college. I'd like to say I'm going to college to become a better person and all that crap but in reality the reason I’m here is so I can make more money in the future.
If someone would have offered me a 2 million dollar a year contract for 3 to 4 years when I left high school to do something I loved I wouldn't have thought twice about going to work for them, so why should any high school athlete who can make that much think twice?
