If you haven't heard yet, the Pac-12 presidents put together a letter of changes they would like to see made to the NCAA model.

Among the bigger items was the one-and-done trend. If the NBA and the players' association can't find a way to raise the age minimum, then the presidents have proposed making college freshmen ineligible. It would be a throwback move to the days when stars like Lew Alcindor couldn't play for the varsity team, and such a rule was abolished in 1973.

Makes you wonder how many players would just head overseas, if it ever came to that.
