He doesn't often go out on a limb and usually has reliable info. We've been hearing that from other sources too. I am definitely starting to get worried about this. We really have to stop the bleeding. He did say it's not a done deal yet though.

Big mistake!
These kids wanna get paid, well stick around another year and then GET PAID!Agree! Would not be a smart move on his part.
To be honest, I'm fine with guys leaving who are solid in all 1st round projections. But for guys who's best chance is to end up in the G-league or Europe, well, that's just silly and is beginning to be annoying. I know Cal can't make these kids stay, but for ones even he knows have no business leaving just yet, he and his staff should work a little bit harder on ways to convince them that they in fact should come back and get better before bolting.

I don't know about that, but it's close.That would be a dumber decision than Daniel Orton
Cal has said it and so have former players: "It's hard". Some of these guys don't want to go through a 2nd or 3rd year of boot camp, so they take or consider taking the easier way out. Hope he stays.

If they can't handle college bootcamp, how are they going to handle the pros? Fairly sure it only gets harder.
But the NBA isn't easier. In fact it would have to be so much harder it's basically in another universe.
Playing overseas would even be harder than that.
The where-are-they-now article that came out about Goodwin and Teague and Orton recently should be gleefully shared by Cal. This team we just saw was straight mediocre. We have a lot of weirdos in the fanbase, but we've also got people who've seen a lot of pros come through here in the last nine years. Many UK fans know what they're seeing when they look at some of these guys.
It was easy to see a lot of mediocrity on the court this past year. It was always called "youth," but it was also guys who just weren't even on the same plane as most of our other first-round picks.
We've entered an era of delusions of grandeur.
Not siding with PJ at all. Made that as clear as possible.
I have said this a week ago. He wants to go. Doesn't mean he will but he really wants to
If they think Cal's boot camp is "too hard," they don't have the work ethic to make it in the NBA.
And we have seen a few of those kids not make it in the NBA. The NBA is supposed to give the players their feedback of where they stand next week. Hopefully when PJ hears mid-to-late 2nd round that he decides to come back.If they think Cal's boot camp is "too hard," they don't have the work ethic to make it in the NBA.
I will be devastated if he leaves. I was expecting him to have a better sophomore campaign than Terrence Jones did. Imagine if PJ starts stepping out and hitting the three.
