So something I picked up in there, Keene stayed IN the draft? Is that correct? I had thought he was returning to CMU.

I didn't realize that, to use the Graduate Transfer Rule,you have to enroll in a graduate program not offered at the university you graduated from.

Good read, but I'd love to hear from former players who've gone this route in a story like this to get the players' perspective.

My understanding was that he was committing to going pro from the get-go, not just throwing his name out there to see what teams thought. Of course, that may not be in the NBA.

I'm sure he'll get paid somewhere, probably overseas. Even though he was at Central I'm a bit disappointed. He was fun to watch, even though he straight up killed us last year.
