It doesn't fit with the current trend, that's for sure. Jason Williams is flat out a great kid. Jim Boeheim coached him during a summer league, and said he was the best kid he had ever been around. I think him returning to school is a good idea. He could jump to the NBA, and do well, but he still has room for improvement. He had a ton of turnovers in the Final 4. I feel there are very few players who don't benefit from staying in college.

The funny thing about all these kids leaving early is that it has hardly hurt the college game, certainly not the Final 4 or Final 8. But, it is killing the NBA, because the players are stunting their careers and suffering permanent "game" damage. That's backwards of what one would first think.
