I think it has. They struggled to get top guys to begin with and now the top guys will earn more going to elite programs. I think this experiment will be over in a couple years.

How much does elite CBB players go to class?Still gives kids a chance to earn money without having to go to class, but the whole thing was based on the premise that you could make money right out of HS and that’s no longer a unique situation. It’s definitely hurt it and will probably kill it eventually.
Based on my experience working at 4 different universities in or closely tied to athletics, they go to class all the time, except if they are on the road traveling.How much does elite CBB players go to class?
Long way to draft dayYeah they have several in next years’ mock drafts.
Yeah, that will work until the NBA decides to sign a player that had entered the draft but returned to college and leaves right before March Madness.Hopefully
And its time for ncaa to make rules that benefit .... college basketball.
Let players be eligible even if entering the draft.. don't like it nba? Well, work with the ncaa in rules that benefit Both..
NIL is hurting them and also G League Ignite.I think it has. They struggled to get top guys to begin with and now the top guys will earn more going to elite programs. I think this experiment will be over in a couple years.
Green I think would of slightly hurt himself because his J wasn't ready. Kuminga went lotto, I think he was fine. Todd I think is who he is and wouldn't of been much different in college. Now hardy, I think he would of improved his stock.NIL is hurting them and also G League Ignite.
Plus, most of the guys who are opting for the G-league options are losing stock.
Kumgina lost stock.
Isaiah Todd lost stock.
Jaden Hardy plummeted from top 5 to the 37th pick.
The only guys who held serve were Green and Daniels, and it's doubtful they would have hurt themselves by going to college for a year.
Except at North Carolina, the diploma is in the mail.Based on my experience working at 4 different universities in or closely tied to athletics, they go to class all the time, except if they are on the road traveling.
Kuminga went from projected 1 or 2 to #7. That's a stock drop.Green I think would of slightly hurt himself because his J wasn't ready. Kuminga went lotto, I think he was fine. Todd I think is who he is and wouldn't of been much different in college. Now hardy, I think he would of improved his stock.
Kuminga wasn't a predicted top 5 pick. They had huge questions on what his position was. Green benefited from college spacing and a lot of being on the ball. Todd was just a 4 that only wanted to shoot 3s and not well. He's remained that kind of player because it's just a DNA thing, he doesn't like a physical game.Kuminga went from projected 1 or 2 to #7. That's a stock drop.
How would Green have hurt himself by playing for Coach K or Cal as opposed to some 2nd tier G-League coach?
Todd could have been a top 20 pick if he picked the right college.
They didn’t create a minor league. It’s the G League and they have a team they play on that plays those teams.G-League Ignite probably played a big role too. I think the best recruits who skip college will be choosing to play for the minor league team that the NBA created specifically for those types of players.
The G League is the minor league. The G League Ignite is the minor league team the NBA created specifically for elite kids who want skip college.They didn’t create a minor league. It’s the G League and they have a team they play on that plays those teams.

We Have Liftoff!
G League Ignite gave top prospects an alternative to college and produced two likely top-five picks.www.si.com
Everything I posted was correct.
Actually, I have it on good authority their diploma is on the back side of their national letter of intent. So they sign the NLI, fax it in to Chapel Hill, and then they turn it over and frame their diploma months before they ever set foot on campus.Except at North Carolina, the diploma is in the mail.
Whether Overtime’s business succeeds is still an open question, but it seems to me that NIL is probably a bigger problem for the G-League program than it is for Overtime.I think it has.
