    I don't think PJ goes (though I've been wrong on this a lot), but the calculus is going to be he either finds out what he can do to get himself into the league, or he finds out that he'll never be a high draft pick and he may as well go now.

    I don't know, I think what the league will tell him is that a 6'7" PF who struggles in traffic and doesn't have a jump shot is going to have a tough time in the pros, but he may just hate school and want out ASAP.

      He's going to go to the combine, if invited, get advice, and very likely come back to uk. It's exactly what he should do. Not sure why anybody is surprised by somebody like pj doing this. He's not hiring an agent, at this time. No reason to freakout at all.

        For sure. There's been much discussion about how they all should test the waters to see where they stand.

            I guess Chris Mack missed on his 1st recruit. If Adel leaves they're hurting.

              Not freaking out at all, he's just not that good at this point, wheres he going to play, what position? Truth is, may get his feelings hurt if we are be upfront and honest about it...

                Mustapha Heron of Auburn is entering the draft and has hired an agent. Good Bye.

                      He won't get his feelings hurt if his purpose is to merely get feedback and not actually be drafted.

                      Just going by the comments they or their parents make, it's obvious that a lot of these guys just want to see where they are. They know full well they're not pros right now. That's not the point.

                        One of the first things the scouts are going to tell him is that when he makes a good play because that's his job, enough with the mean mugging already. It's your job, act like you been there before lol lol lol

                          Man, I agree with you on that 119%.

                            I guess i am a traditionalist and i don't like all that extra stuff but understand that in the moment of a tight game at a critical moment youngsters get that adrenaline rush and let it all out. Still i didn't mind J. Murray with the bow and arrow taunt or Lamb and the trendsetting 3 point goggles so i guess PJ is no different but as of now, he's not good enough consistently to do that stuff lol lol lol.

                              I liked it during games when Washington was giving us double doubles.

                              Many times he did it when he'd score 5 points and get 2 rebounds.

                              In those games you probably should just play. If you're out there tearing dudes up then you can make any face you want.

                                Terrence Jones used to do that all the time his freshman year. As his play and consistency improved, that other stuff faded away.
