 Not true*.  They have to spend at least one year in college now - which is actually forcing a lot of them to rethink going to the NBA when they realize they have a lot to work on.
 
 *the exception is Brandon Jennings, who skipped college and is playing in Europe - his draft stock has suffered a little because of this choice though.

 Gotta watch them on the internet-
 http://www.atdhe.net/
 
 OP, the funny this is one of those times when we all see, for certain, that most foreign teachers here are either Canadians or teaching with fake diplomas (or both
  ) as NO ONE is even aware that colleges play basketball, let alone that there's a tournament. Yeah, it's like that.  |  |

				| a few years ago nashville in itaewon had the final four on. not sure recently. sometimes i wonder if a bar that played basketball, baseball, etc., much like rmt does hockey and scrooge does rugby, wouldn't do well in seoul. i guess just being an "american" bar would draw ire from koreans and foreigners alike, particularly the among the efl ranks, if it wasn't situated next to a military installation. |  |

 I've been watching them here all day.  You can rewatch any of the old games, too!  It's fantastic.  THere was a sign on my office Friday that said 'Dont Disturb the Waeguk, He Has March Madness'.
 
 Yes, everyone was confused.
 
 I think some of us are heading out tonight to try and find a bar.  I mean I watched a soccer game last weekend for crissakes. . .

 Hmm, I wonder how Kobe Bryant would've done had he gone to college (Duke was the most likely candidate).
 
 Yeah, I agree this is a good move but that won't make me watch college basketball much again.
