If they did have that rule last year then UK probably would have won it all again this year and next year too..they lost all of their freshmen starters from last year to the NBA..They only lost 2 games last year.There is no telling how good they would have been if they had to stay 3 years
They wouldn't have all gone to UK if that was the case. Cal's selling point to these guys is come in play with a bunch of 5 stars, with a NC, and then go to the NBA after a year. That is how he recruits. All 6 of these 5 stars simply wouldn't want to share the spotlight if they had to stay 3 years.
