There’s been a lot of talk since the SEC meetings about the NBA’s early entry policy. The one-and-done rule has come under fire from coaches across the country.
Michigan State’s Tom Izzo went so far as to say that the rule creates more cheating.

Those are some strong words. You can read the full article from the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette right here.
