But the notion that he "might only spend a year or two at Xavier before turning his sights toward the NBA" is laughable. Even if he qualifies, he won't see the court next year.

    Agree, this is all about putting him in the best position to qualify academically. Not going to pick up a lot of basketball skill joining a team halfway through the season.

    The last sentence of the article......middle Georgians will be deprived of being able to watch his final semester. Who,is the writer REALLY concerned about here....the kid or the fans? Seems to me he Igor be more concerned about the fans getting what they want, and not really concerned about what is really best for the kids. Does he even know that Xavier has never even had a one-and-done? That Xavier has such a great record of graduating kids, with REAL degrees? He should have done HIS homework.
