All the new NBA Draft prospects and Brandon Rush

Silock · 04-13-2007, 11:12 PM

With all of the guys declaring for the draft, like Oden, Hibbert, Green, Aflalo, Wright, etc., do you think that with each one that declares, it makes Brandon more likely to come back to KU next year? I think all those guys hurt his draft stock so much that he'll likely be back.

Thoughts?

I think Julian Wright would have only hurt his stock by returning this year, but Rush has a real chance to improve his status if he keeps up the improvements he made at the end of the season in terms of being more aggressive.

Most mocks and draft type people assumed all of these people were coming out.......Rush is a fringe first rounder.

At the very least, I'd expect him to declare and not sign an agent....leaving the option open to come back.

One of the guys at the KU board said if you declare twice you are gone agent or no agent. And he said Rush declared out of HS so this would be twice for him. I don't know how accurate that is.

Rush could be Big 12 player of the year if he comes back, both on the front-end and the back-end. He'll gets a chance to put a little more on his own back and be more of a team leader.

And with Kaun taking dance and yoga classes now between working on his aikido skills.... lookout.

That rule is in place, but I don't remember Rush declaring out of high school....I could be wrong.

This draft class is going to be loaded with talent. It would serve Rush to stay in school another year.
