I have heard Basketball players talk about it. I think it was Ralph Sampson. He said that they didn't even consider the NBA until his legacy was cemented in college. And that says a lot considering Ralph Sampson won player of the year 3 years in a row and would of been the #1 pick out of HS over Magic Johnson.
Not sure what created the urgency for guys to turn pro. I know in the NBA like the first 10 guys to come straight from HS all ended up being stars. Maybe they just made it look easy? It spiraled out of control though.
