June 24, 201610 yr My buddy text me last night and said that he thought the new draft rules seemed to hurt Kentucky. Thinks Skal & Ulis would have came back if they didn't have the extra time to decide. I'm not sure I agree or disagree. How do you all think the new draft rules affected this year?
June 24, 201610 yr Exactly 50% (30 of 60) of the college early entries went undrafted. Notables: Jalen Reynolds, Xavier Cat Barber, NC State Robert Carter, Maryland Brannen Greene, Kansas Jermaine Lawrence, Manhattan (formerly UC) Wayne Seldon, Kansas Isaiah Taylor, Texas Devin Williams, West Virginia Troy Williams, Indiana

Thinks Skal & Ulis would have came back if they didn't have the extra time to decide. I'm not sure I agree or disagree. How do you all think the new draft rules affected this year? I disagree. Both made their decisions long before the deadline. On the flip side, someone like Briscoe is probably gone had he not had the extra time.
June 24, 201610 yr Author Is there some Star Trek-type mirror universe where Vandy was good this year? Trying to figure out how two their guys who I don't even know got picked first round. And I watched Vandy at least a half-dozed times this past season. I was thinking the exact same thing.
June 24, 201610 yr Baldwin and Jones are really good. They had to deal with that idiot Kevin Stallings though, which could explain the confusion.
June 24, 201610 yr Author With the way the NBA is going I think Skal sticks around 4-5 just off potential alone. I hope he does well. Seems like a really nice kid.
June 24, 201610 yr Ulis family reaction: Kennedy Hardman on Twitter: "Countless hours in the gym. 4 years of HS. 2 years at Kentucky and 1 call that made it all worth it. @tulis3 @Suns https://t.co/aW
June 24, 201610 yr @seanCunningham Vlade Divac considers Skal Labissiere to be the steal of the draft to fall to Kings at 28th. The Kings should implement random drug screening.

And I watched Vandy at least a half-dozed times this past season. Vandy was probably the most underachieving team of the college basketball season. Couldn't be happier for them.
June 24, 201610 yr Looks like Skal made the right call. Happy to see Ulis get to team up with Booker again. I was really hoping for almost anywhere but Denver for Murray. He'll fade into oblivion there. Kentucky, Vanderbilt, & Washington all had 2 1st rounders. No other school had multiple 1st rd picks. I agree on Murray. Stuck in 33-37 win purgatory.
June 24, 201610 yr The more I think about it, the more I'm excited to see what Dunn can do in Minnesota. Sure he's not a great shooter but he's a complete player and it sounds like he can't wait to learn from Tibbs. Selfishly I wanted Murray, but I was under the assumption Dunn would be off the draft board. Nobody hit it bigger than the TWolves yesterday. Got to get some perimeter shooters, though. #PowerOfThePack
June 24, 201610 yr I love that the Wolves wouldn't give up LaVine for Butler. I'm very high on LaVine also.
