Calipari has taken it to the extreme, yes, but there are still many programs that thrive with kids who are slightly less talented, but who will stay and grow for 4 years. I hate KU, hate them, but if you want to look for a team that's done it the "old fashioned" way, that team starts 4 seniors, including one from my high school who's the antithesis of an uber-talented "one and done". But yes, KU's one non-senior starter is the one and done phenom Ben McClemore (who's a stud). Other favorites like Indiana and Michigan and Michigan State and Duke...they sport 3 and 4 year guys who've got the experience you like in a March team. I'm not sure Calipari's one and done bonanza is necessarily the wave of the future. > J > > - > > Ninety percent of politicians give the other ten percent a bad reputation. > - Henry Kissinger > > Politicians are people who, when they see light at the end of the tunnel, > go out and buy some more tunnel. - John Quinton > > > ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:361992 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
