college should play for college teams. The product would get infinitely better if the University's themselves simply adopted that philosophy. There are now lots of alternative professional opportunities to make money playing basketball outside of the NBA, and it isn't necessary to play college ball as the vehicle to the NBA draft or being signed to an NBA contract.

My preference would be they go the other direction, and get the guys who stay one or two seasons out of college basketball if they aren't actually interested in being in college.
