RE: LeBron calls for NBA to develop alternative development system to NCAA

So they skim off the best, big deal. When you are no longer battling for the first round draft pick kid who could take nearly any Division I team to at least the Sweet Sixteen, the pressure drops dramatically.
Change the CBA so any player turning down a G League offer has to wait two or three years to be draft eligible.
Carolina and Villanova and Gonzaga are strong examples of teams that did supremely well the past few years in CBB without many one-and-doners and MOSTLY with 3rd and 4th year players. There will still be lots of good basketball to call "NCAA Basketball" if you have an NBA minor league.
Yes, there will be teenagers on the D league rosters...but there will also be plenty of good 20-something and 30-something players as well, who aren't college aged anymore.
