[QUOTE="The Bell Tolls for Thee, post: 129544971, member: 1812660"] In my opinion, this move makes perfect sense. Devin has played for 3 years here at WVU and has likely hit his peak this season. There is a chance he could have an even better season next year, but I think the odds that even a better season will result in improved draft stock are low. He has physical limitations compared to other NBA players at his position which he cannot improve with another year and it is the biggest hurdle for him to make an NBA roster. Senior season or no, Devin likely winds up on the same career path. I'd say his odds of injury or hurting his future career is higher than improving his professional career with a senior season. So unless Devin values an extra year in college for education purposes or has an internal desire to see WVU compete for a championship, there is little incentive from a career/income perspective to stick around.
