    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Syracuse's chances to challenge for the 2005 national title got a much-needed lift Thursday when junior Hakim Warrick decided to return for his senior season, Syracuse's staff told ESPN.com Thursday.


    Warrick was weighing whether to declare for the NBA draft, where he was projected to be a mid-to-late first-round draft pick.


    "I thought this would be the best decision for me,'' Warrick told ESPN.com Thursday. "I can come back and graduate and we've got a good shot at winning the national title again [after doing it in 2003].''</div>

    Damn, I was hoping that the Rockets would get him. Next season he might be a Top 5 pick.

    Very Smart move if you ask me, Hakim Warrick will be a very good ball player when he come's out of syracuse and will be successfull in the NBA.

    Gotta admire a guy that would give up getting drafted in the 1st round of the NBA Draft to finish out his collegiate career. All the best for Hakim.
