I agree with you completely. I would imagine these projections are far from a guarantee and in his case based largely on potential. Would be great to see him return and make it a lock.
Josh Primo also testing NBA waters - UPDATE he's officially going pro
- Thread starter DzynKingRTR
- Start date
Selfishly, I hope he sticks around another year because he gives Bama a better chance to win it all next year.
Come back another year Primo and get first round money.
It's always a risk benefit proposition. Don't generally blame kids that want to go early because a lot can happen in a year.
First 10 picks are HS seniors and Josh is the first current college player off the board in that mock. He needs to come back.
I get it ... both options are more than what I'm making so I'm not mad at all lol.
I just want them to get the best possible outcome out of the solution.
Yep, which means there's a greater chance that Primo can be a top 10 pick
If the kid is getting vibes he could go in the first round I suspect he'll go. I don't know his family financial situation, but even if it's relatively good, first round money RIGHT NOW would be hard to turn down.
But man, I'm just thinking about his play this year and as good as it was at times, it also had equal moments where he seemed to struggle with college competition.
I guess I don't understand the pro-draft, but it just seems based on his play last year he needs another year at the college level to be ready for the pro game.

It would be but the difference in going around 10th in the draft and late in the 1st round is over double the money on the rookie contract. About $11M at #10 and about $5M at #30. If you are farily certain you can be a lottery pick you should wait or you are giving up about $6M.
Its official ... Primo is forgoing his eligibility and turning pro
I bet we saw it the same place. I just started a thread with the link
