You can always go back to college or finish through correspondence.

The only real downside I see for these guys is that they kill their NCAA eligibility. So after they get their cup of coffee, they have to decide between playing in the AHL or similar league or going back to college and being unable to play.

Personally, it'd be a no-brainer for me. He'll probably be able to earn a couple hundred thousand dollars and also he gets to see if he has what it takes.
