I support rule changes that keep kids in school longer. I would like to see some of the great players opt to stay in long enough to earn their degrees. Many of them return later, but it is often difficult to do so. I know there is a risk of injury and that is one reason why they opt to leave when they can. I don’t know how big the risk is when they stay in school. It isn’t often in basketball that they have a career ending injury. I don’t recall seeing it more than once or twice, but I guess it happens. I think even the great players would benefit by having another year or two to mature before they go pro. I think it would be a good change.
