Big Slick Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Why not? He can make money and concentrate 100% on hoops, hire strength coaches, trainers, agent, etc. If he went to college he would take 9 hours first semester and probably not go to class second semester.

Correct. Zero interest in college , he hasn't qualified. Trend? Doubtful. We may see one kid per year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 This deserves another reading ... The only downside I see for Jennings is if he goes over there and flops. Then what? If he does well, its a plus for him - gets paid and an NBA team looks favorably upon his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
