Couple interesting pieces of information came out of the college basketball world the Thursday after the national championship.
- Huggy Bear has decided to jump ship after one solid season at Kansas State and head to the opening at West Virginia. Does anyone not think this is a completely lateral move? They both have strong fan bases, probably equal talent at this point. Yes, the Mountaineers have been more successful recently due to coaching master John Beilein but still why go to WVU?
- Donovan is staying at Florida. Not really ground breaking news but a great play by Donovan.
- In the same interview Donovan also pretty much said the four starting juniors on this years Gator squad are going to the draft and will probably hire agents. They all should, yes even Taureen Green. Green was a key cog to that team I'd say the number one part but many would argrue with me. He probably will be a first round pick and he will be a good bench option at point guard in the NBA. The other three are lottery picks and I really want to see where Humphrey and Richards might go.
- Stud frosh from Washington, Spencer Hawes, is declaring for the draft without hiring an agent. I don't think he will come back and shouldn't. This kid is skilled in the post and already has an NBA body. He would probably be a lottery pick and it really seems like Romar is on the downhill slide at Washington. He can turn it around though fast.
- Another expected move was Marcus Williams from Arizona declaring for the draft. He did not look great at Arizona, but he has the body and athleticism to make it in the NBA if he puts his mind to it. If not he could become another Eddie Robinson. And yes he hired an agent.
