ESPN Grades Early Entrants' Decisions
Greg Monroe, So., F, Georgetown: Monroe is another of the not-exactly-a-slam-dunk-but-still-really-good players in this draft, but he gets an A- just for agreeing, after much deliberation and a second-straight high-lottery projection, to come out of school and get his NBA career underway. It would have been borderline silly to see Monroe back for a third year. It was time.
Borderline silly is probably right. Also borderline silly that I actually thought he was going to come back.

Eamonn Brennan is borderline silly
There was a chance he would come back, dominate college basketball with 20 points, 12 rebounds, and 5 assists a game, lead Georgetown to a national championship, and become the #1 pick in the 2011 NBA draft.
What could have been… but cannot begrudge the guy for the decision. I’d probably rather make guaranteed millions now than delay it for a year. Anything could have happened during that year.
