This seems very wrong. The pro leagues need to step in with rules preventing this if nobody else will. Once you play pro, no going back to college unless you want to be banned from the pros for a period afterward.

Yeah, Gerry talked about this a few months ago that this is happening. 

Well, a few months ago it was D-League and European pros and now it's the 31st pick in the actual NBA draft.  

So what's to stop players that don't get drafted to their liking in the NFL from returning to play their remaining eligibility?  Apparently, nothing?

Can We sign Jermaine O’Neal Sr. for the 2nd half of the season?

He went to the NBA straight out of High School.

He is retired now, but was a 6 time All-Star and plus, his daughter went to Texas.

Adding CJ Miles to the list/team as well, only 38!

Straight to NBA from HS, Skyline, plus was committed to Texas at one point.

If you've willingly left college sports, why should you be allowed to come back? How does this make sense, unless they're comparing it to European league players being allowed to play college ball?

Why can’t we do the same in football? Lol 

NFL players generally already used their eligibility. No euro leagues in football.

It is possible if a player leaves early and then flames out immediately that they could come back to school.
