I'm leaving this open. Big enough deal to warrant it's own thread.

Torrel Harris says Tobias Harris will "test the waters" for NBA Draft. "He's one of the best in the country, why wouldn't he?"

Ugh. What's the rush? Seriously.
I know it's every kid's goal but just getting to the NBA shouldn't be enough.

on a related note, does anyone have a link to that article for the WaPo from a year ago that talks about Gay Williams and Tom izzo being two of the last great "clean coaches". I can't seem to find it.

Luke Winn, I think, had an article about his recruiting process in the fall. Seemed that Cuse wasn't even in his top 3. I think WVU was second and MD third.
Edit: Found it:
• On Syracuse: "[Coach Jim Boeheim] would probably have let Tobias play point forward. But what scared me there was they had already had four guys in a similar position on the wing -- James Southerland, Kris Joseph, C.J. Fair and Mookie Jones -- and we weren't sure Wes Johnson was going to the NBA yet. ... I was like, 'Whoa, that's a lot of guys,' and so I wasn't as high on them as Tobias was. But even he said at the end, 'I can see making it through 1-2 guys, but five? And if I got hurt, and sat out, I'd have to battle through them again.'"
• "So it really came down to Maryland, West Virginia and Tennessee."
• On Maryland: "Gary Williams would have let Tobias run the point forward in his system, the flex. And Tobias liked Gary and Maryland, and knew the school because my oldest son [Torrel Jr.] went there. But Tobias just didn't want to be next to a big city -- in the end he wanted to be in a college town."
• On West Virginia: "I love [Bob] Huggins, and Tobias could've played the point forward there. They showed us the way they used Da'Sean Butler and Devin Ebanks as versatile forwards, and we watched them a lot, and we strongly considered going there. But I think Tobias just would've been going there for Huggins and basketball -- he wouldn't have picked [Morgantown] if he was just a regular student."
• On Tennessee: "What put it over the top was that he liked the school and Knoxville more than West Virginia. But what made us consider it in the first place was that, in my mind, Bruce Pearl's system put a priority on using a point forward like Tobias. And they just lost three forwards from the year before [Smith, J.P. Prince and Wayne Chism all did work on the perimeter], which meant there was an opportunity. That made me even more secure in the feeling that Tobias could go there and play."

Tennessee's Tobias Harris headlines group - Luke Winn - SI.com

Three weeks ago, we conducted a study entitled the Freshman Realism Project, which analyzed the production of the past four classes of top 100 recruits. The point was to establish a realistic set of expectations for elite freshmen, because no group in college basketball faces more wildly unrealistic expectations. The data yielded a few important truths: freshman impact has been on the decline since 2007-08; it's unfair to expect any freshman ranked outside the top 10 by recruiting services to have a go-to-guy role; and it's wrong to expect any freshman outside the top 20 to play even half of his team's available minutes. Those aren't exactly exciting revelations, but they're the wide-angle, statistical reality of the past four seasons.

Have to believe this is it for Bruce Peal in terms of coaching college ball. I think it's very good odds he gets slapped with a show cause order.
