No way Oden stays for his sophmore season. I think this is just a one year pitstop for him.

He has indicated on several occasions that he intends to stay for more than one year, that his offensive game needs more than one year's worth of work, and that education is a top priority for him. Does that mean he's a lock for a second year? Of course not. But to say that there's "no way" he plays as a soph omore is just silly.

has a college player EVER admitted that he's "one and done?"
Oden can say whatever he wants, but it means absolutely zero right now.

And according to your vote in this poll, you think he'll be done at the end of the Big Ten Conference tournament.

I'm not saying it doesn't. What I am saying is that to automatically assume the opposite is just as misguided.
I think it counts for something that he's been so steadfast in his commentary on the issue. He hasn't said, "I'm thinking about staying." He's been saying, "I'm planning on staying." While college players rarely (if ever) indicate otherwise, they're generally pretty wishy-washy on the issue. Obviously it is my hope that he stays, but I think even an unbiased party would be wise to put their money on him being on the floor for the '07-'08 season.
