    They will get to develop their game in the NBDL which is much better than college.
    How is the NBDL much better than college other than they will get a small payday?

    This is such a tough situation, do you go to the NBDL, which does have some talent but its about the same as AAA in MLB. Or do you go to college, while you get an edcuation, the BS you have to put up with being the NCAA. There has got to be a way that high schoolers can go to college even with the damn agent. Edcuation is important and NCAA has to realize that until then i wouldnt want to be a guy that people make 3 billion dollars on per year.

    If I'm a blue chip HS recruit, I would rather sign a 500k-1mil. shoe contract, and then get all the training attention in the NBDL to work on my game.

    In college, you are only allowed to work with your coaching and training staff for X amount of hours per week. In the NBDL, you will receive much more attention. It's not even close.
