I'm sure his stock would be a little higher if he stayed another year or two.

unreal

[Brutus8907]

he's not ready, terrible decision

[RamRodBulldogs44]

This is a bonehead move.

[BigMcCauley55]

DUMMY

lost an education and will not have a big pay day

watch and see he become a bust and then be messed up

[TrojanXplosion]

Bad move. Not his time.

[RVRaiderFan]

STUPID.......not even close to being ready.

[LICKING COUNTY FAN]

Of course he isn't ready but the way the pro game is some team will draft him and pay him six figures while he sets on the bench and learns the game.

[Eagle82]

What is he thinking.

[91blue14]

someboy lied to him

[LICKING COUNTY FAN]

I heard on ESPN Radio that he will be a top ten pick maybe even a top five.

Hello money and bench.

[seofan_via_dublin]

Stay another year, develop more, but split time at center with an actual big man next year, and struggle to have lunch money because the NCAA doesn't allow you to work and the scholarship you have only covers tuition and room and board.

Or, go Pro, sign a contract for millions of dollars, still develope, have millions of dollars, be a 7 foot tall player with an outside shot, that can learn low post moves wherever he is, have millions of dollars, possibly play in the eastern conference where he will make an immediate impact with his size and range, and finally make millions of dollars.

Sure, he could use some more development time, but he is 7 feet tall over 250 pounds and can shoot from behind the arc.
He won't be drafted lower than 10th.

He probably left because Buckeye fans cant spell his name

that is a bad choice b/c he is a post player that is not strong enough to bang down low very long

He's NOT a post player.

He's a european style big man, meaning he is more comfortable facing the basket
than with his back towards it.

Not every 7 foot player is a Post player, this is no longer the 20th century.

He is a Dirk Nowiski type player, with potential to improve to a Dirk type talent.

In the west, he'll get killed. Put him in the eastern conference though and he'll be a solid
big man with a deep range and a soft touch.

[noreply66]

He will go overseas

[fightingtigers45]

He wont ever be as good as Nowitzki, maybe not even Bargnani, but he will be a solid role player for any team...

Kosta Koufos

I'd bet that more Buckeye fans could spell "can't" correctly, compared to his name.

[seofan_via_dublin]

What makes you say that?

I'd take bets on him being better than all 5 of Florida's guys from last season.

[Tartanblue]

on All Bets are Off on STO, they said that he is not going to hire an agent and could return if he doesnt like his draft spot
