Plus some of the higher paid coaches wouldn't go along with it because it's too risky. Use Duke's coach as an outlier, he earns $7 million a year and has been with the team for thirty years, good luck getting him to risk that career for twice his annual salary.

- valleyer 13y agoThe vast majority of players in the NCAA tournament have effectively zero chance of ever playing, much less starting and making millions, in the NBA. Consider the automatic bids that go to conference winners, the benchwarmers and walk-ons at even the top tier schools, etc. Remember, only 60 people are drafted into the NBA every year (not counting the rare players that enter through the D-league).
