Oden, Conley and Cook to enter NBA Draft
That's three underclass Buckeyes entering the NBA Draft. Ah, but only the big fella, Greg Oden, will be hiring an agent. Mike Conley, Jr. and Daequan Cook have reportedly not hired agents yet, thereby retaining their eligibility to return to college next season.
We know Oden's a top-two lock, and the buzz on Conley is that he could be a mid-to-late first rounder. But Daequan Cook? He barely started a game. He was the team's second-leading rebounder, but he's 6'6", which means he'd better be able to shoot if he's done growing.
Remember it's The Ohio State University. Or to use it in a sentence, "The Ohio State University men's basketball team could really suck next season."
