    But he said Tuesday that he won't hire an agent, which would afford him the option to return to school for his senior year.

    "I'm just gathering information," said Gray, who was voted the most improved player in the Big East conference this season after leading the league in rebounding and finishing finishing as the only player to average a double-double (13.9 ppg., 10.5 rpg.). "I'm talking to the right people. I'm not listening to agents or friends or stuff like that.

    "The only thing I know right now is, no matter what happens, I'm not signing with an agent."

    The NBA draft is scheduled for June 28 at Madison Square Garden in New York, and the deadline for players to enter the draft is April 29. Those not employing an agent have until June 18 to remove their names.

    "In the next few days, I'm going to have to decide whether I want to declare for the draft and go through that process," Gray said.

    Should the 7-foot, 270-pound Gray decide to enter in the draft, he is likely to follow the same course taken last year by Pitt guard Carl Krauser and West Virginia center Kevin Pittsnogle, both of whom, as juniors, attended the NBA Pre-Draft Camp in Chicago without representation of an agent. </div>
