How long does he have after that to withdraw his name (if necessary)?
Hoping he plays for RU at least 1 more year.

When Does the NBA Inform Corey If He's READY?
- Thread starter RutgersMO
- Start date
He has until June 13th ten days before the draft to pull his name out of the draft.
Absolutely. The money is also better in those rounds. Trust me, Sanders is staying in Piscataway.
All first round draft choices in the NBA receive 2 year guaranteed contracts based on their draft position. All rookie salaries are predetermined ( based on when chosen in first round) but can be 120% to 80% of the salary scale agreed on between the NBA owners and the Union representing the players.
2nd round picks don't have a salary scale, but usally are signed to a much lowe salary than late first rounders and I don't think their contract is automatically guaranteed because of the NBA bargaining agreement.

I believe that first some committee of NBA scouts or executives are reviewing video of players who declared. Kiki Vandeweghe is on the committee I was told. Then they inform players of their draft stock. Then they invite players to the combine.
Some players will be told "go back to school son." At that point they player had to decide if he believes the NBA feedback (and remove his name and come back to school) or his friends & family and stay in the draft.
If a player isn't invited to the combine he'd have to be dumb, high or both to not withdraw from the draft.

Let's hope the NBA does a better job on this than the NFL does. More than one Rutgers football player left early based on their NFL "evaluation" only be go undrafted in one instance and not get drafted until 7th round in the other, if I recall correctly.
It would make sense for him to stay, we want him to stay, you want him to stay, but unless you have inside info, you might want to consider saving the "trust me" statements. I have been around too long to listen to any trust me promises.
I hear you. I do not have any inside info. I am just saying, I feel confident he is going to stay. It would not be smart to leave. Just wait.
Melo trimble also played against staers 100% of the time. Sanders frequently played against backups. Just the truth. Down 15-18 and you are not playing starters anymore.
I am a huge fan of Sanders. Just saying.
I would also add that his scoring stats were boosted by the lack of talent around him. Of course, his assist stats were reduced for the same reason.
Not too long ago, on SiriusXM radio, Bobby Cremins mentioned that players who make the rounds with the NBA teams get behind on their academics. Hopefully Sanders is doing the academics part ...
That I cannot take a way from him though. You are right, but still. Against starters for the whole game, I think Sanders is a 8-10 ppg, 4 assist type of player.It doesn't matter what I think,though. I just hope Sanders rips it up next year.
True, but Melo also had a lot more talent on his team, more scoring options so Corey had to carry the load more than Melo most nights. I'm not discounting what either of them did, they are both really good players, I just think Melo is way more NBA ready and even he isn't a first rounder, and there is no chance Corey gets graded out higher and (like all rational posters here with an understanding that merely testing draft waters is nothing more than helpful evaluation) , he will return to the Banks.
Absolutely. Trimble is more NBA ready, for sure. He went against better guys, so his stats are more realistic.
I hope he does. I hope he gets into the NBA. I am not doubtinng his talent level. Do a quick search on the opponents who started the game, how much they played, and how much Sanders scored.
I did it with Maryland once. Trimble played fourteen minutes. Sanders scored 14. What happens if trimble played the 36 minutes Sanders played?
So many darn variables. Still, he was not playing the best competition 80% of the time.
If you're talking about Coleman, I think he got a grade his RS Soph year and decided to return... but didn't get a new grade his RS Jr year when he decided to declare after an injury-impacted year.
Those of you that think Sanders could be NBA ready now--again, think about Quincy Douby after his freshman year--way more ability than Sanders. After two years of contemplating transferring to Louisville, and considering jumping to the NBA, Quincy was drafted after his junior year. He had a brief fling in the NBA where he showed a complete inability--or even inclination--to play defense, and his volume shooting mentality was not nearly enough to keep him employed. Played only that fragment of a season in the NBA, and went to China, where he flourished. Since he played about a decade ago, many of the posters have no clue about him, but he was way more of a player than Sanders will ever be unless Sanders comes back, realizes how shallow his game is, and works really hard. He has far less talent than Douby did, but hopefully a better attitude than Douby's and a willingness to take instruction and work really hard will work wonders.

Douby played 3 years in the NBA...and he has been by far our best player since Dahntay Jones, "our" last NBA player of consequence. The main reason he didn't make was because they wanted him to play point bc physically he couldn't guard most 2's...not because he was unwilling. Frankly, the fact he was a 1st round pick, led BE in scoring, should get his number up in the rafters.
Swain, mea culpa--saw Q play in Orlando his first year--and of course, 1st rounders are guaranteed 2 years. IAW stats, he actually got into 74 gamed his 2nd season, averaging 11 minutes per game. Under my radar--didn't see Sacramento that year. Then a partial season with Toronto the third year, and on to China, where he twice averaged over 30. In the NBA, he was about 4 ppg each year, barely shooting 3's at over 30%, in the 40% range for his 2's. Still think he had much more talent after his freshman year than Sanders has shown, meaning, hopefully, Corey will come back and work hard.

Quincy played with Sacramento for 2 full years. His third year he was on Toronto but I don't think he lasted the full season. Sacramento was not a good fit for Quincy. Sacramento at that time was loaded with guards and several had almost guaranteed minutes. I don't think he really ever had a fair shot. Many players need to be at the right time at the right place. He led the Big East in scoring at almost 26 ppg.
Yes, Coleman. I was also thinking about Jawan Jamison. Got drafted in the 7th round ... lasted 1 year in the league.
