<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Brandan Wright is having a hard time deciding whether to stay or go. Let's simplify it: Wright needs to declare for the NBA draft and leave Chapel Hill behind. At the North Carolina basketball banquet Tuesday, center Tyler Hansbrough and point guard Ty Lawson said they were sticking around for the Tar Heels' 2007-08 season. Wright, a 6-9 forward, didn't talk to the media after the banquet because he hadn't made a decision. His decision won't be publicly announced until at least April 20, according to coach Roy Williams. Lots of folks who went to college -- including many men who harbor a secret desire to star in a sequel to "Old School" -- believe everyone who's in college should want to stay there as long as possible. Four years. Six years. Eight years. But to me, college basketball is mostly a business. Players should consider their basketball future dispassionately, as a stock that should be sold at its peak. Wright's stock is at a 52-week high. He could be picked as early as No. 3 in this summer's NBA draft behind Kevin Durant and Greg Oden, perhaps even No. 2 if Oden stays at Ohio State. (I think Oden should leave, too, but that's another story.)</div> Source: Charlotte Observer
