What?
In reply to: El Duque 's message, "I actually don't have a problem with the 1-year rule. The cream of the crop flows through the factories like Kentucky, but good players who want a degree go elsewhere. Butler was a great example this year." on Thursday, September 16, 08:49:03pm

Butler has averaged over 23 wins per year over the last 15 years, had been two Sweet 16s in the last 6 years BEFORE last season, and are 14th in weeks in the Top 25 over the last 5 years (Top 25 in the last 10).

They will start the season in the Top 15 again this year.

They are a Top 20 national program, there's no gain in comparing to that, there isnt a comparison.

Edrick, do you have a problem reading or comprehending what you read? The discussion is about the rule that permits kids to play a year and leave school. I used Butler as an example of a program that gets kids for four years, and is able to build a "program," as opposed to a system like Calipari's, which feeds off kids with NBA talent and dreams. That was the essence of my post. (NT) -- El Duque, Sunday, September 19, 09:28:46am
