January 26, 200917 yr "I've gotten paid on time once this year. They treat me like I'm a little kid. They don't see me as a man. If you get on a good team, you might not play a lot. Some nights you'll play a lot; some nights you won't play at all. That's just how it is." Jennings
January 26, 200917 yr I dont know if its a "bad" decision due to the fact that he had zero interest in education. I have read that this also hasn't hurt his NBA draft status so, again, while its been a rough year for him he's getting paid and he'll still be in the NBA.
January 26, 200917 yr ^ Some reports I saw had him slipping to late 1st round and possibility of him falling to the 2nd. I would say horrible decision.

January 26, 200917 yr It's not like he had many other options... Well he burned his own bridges on that one.

I just looked at a few mock drafts and some have him back in the top 15. So we agree then that it was not a bad move for him?
January 26, 200917 yr Author His contract was worth 1.2 million. I wouldn't mind waiting on that check. If he ends up doing well in the draft, I could see more kids heading in this direction.
January 26, 200917 yr He only decided to go this route once he knew his test scores weren't going to get him in the NCAA...
