Just need one year of Europe/NCAA for NBA eligibility.

UK has been a great program however, recently John Calipari has been about one and done players. Last year he had 6(?) players leave as freshman (Edit: 5 left early and 4 as freshmen) and called it the biggest day in UK history. If the next year of UK recruits is as strong as they say it is then if I'm Doron Lamb I might not want to be lost in another stronger group of freshman.

EDIT:
"I made the statement, and I'll make it again, that it (NBA Draft) was the biggest day in Kentucky basketball history,'' Calipari said, "and I wasn't talking to the past. I was talking to the future.'' - John Calipari
