This is what I was trying to say when I posted this a couple posts above this one.

Lebron, Bryant, and KG and others. There Is no sense to make that type of kid go to college even for one year. It is not going to do him any good to go to school for one year, and you can be probably even say two years, if they really don't want a college education. They will just study enough to stay eligible
