Should every NCAA one and done be required to ?
Reimburse the college for the 1 year of their scholarship they used, if not at least 2 yrs. All NCAA B-ball scholarship athletes should be required to stay at least 2 yrs. If they leave early they should be good enough to be drafted in the NBA or be playing overseas somewhere. If they are not playing ball professionally then they pay the scholarship back just like a student loan incurred by any other student. Because someplace , somewhere there is a kid who may not be as talented as the 1 & done's but he would play just as hard and stay all 4 years and get his degree like a scholarship is designed to do. Reward a student athlete with a degree , not preping him for the NBA. How many young men has Calapari at Kentucky wasted scholarships on or how many slightly less talented but maybe more cerebral young men has he denied a degree for his 1 & done's ?
THOUGHTS ?

I'm sure most of those "one and done" players would rather not go to college at all. It's not their fault that the NBA has a stupid rule requiring players to wait a year after they graduate from high school before they're eligible to play pro ball.
Any player who is talented enough to make it to the NBA after one year in college has already paid the university back many times over for the one year of school he attended, by way of ticket sales and merchandise sales. The final four in Dallas is going to draw over 100,000 fans per game, not to mention a huge national TV audience. That's millions and millions of dollars the NCAA and the colleges will be making, and those fans aren't there to watch your "slightly less talented but maybe more cerebral young men" brick open jump shots.
The argument most people make against paying college athletes is that the revenue schools make from mens football and basketball make up a large part of the total budget for college athletics. Your one and done players are helping to pay for 20 or 30 scholarships in less popular sports, as well as womens athletics.
