Some people that came straight out of high school didn't need to mature at all. Example- Lebron James, Amare Stoudamire, KG. I think this extra year of college is necessary because it will help those who do need to mature and MAINLY separate the real talent from those who are not ready. Just think if rashard lewis, stephen jackson, or jermain o'neal had went to college. They would of gained the necessary experience and after around 2 years been ready for the league. And people like Lebron and Amare would of did like Carmelo did: Dominate college for a year and be a top 5 pick. I been wantin a 19 year old age limit for a while. This will eliminate all the young and dumb cats going straight from H.S. Those who chose to go to prep school will obviously be looked down on when they are eligible for the draft because of their choice, and those who go to college will either prove their talent or show they need more time. It's good for the young folk. They need an education.
