If the PPL were to adopt the NFL draft protocol the PPL would need to protect themselves from antitrust laws. The first thing would be to establish a CBA and constitution that stated all the eligibility rules. The PPL should operate as a single entity league because it is such a new league. We must establish certain protocols that will help us determine the eligibility of our players. I think it is in the best interest of our league to create a minimum age requirement such as the NBA. We will establish that age at twenty. It does not matter how many years the athlete plays in college or when they decide to declare for the draft as long as they are twenty years of age they are eligible for the draft. This will allow us to be protected from lawsuits

The One and Done rule was supposed to protect unprepared high school players from the difficult professional transition (Hughes 4). It would help prepare them better by playing one year of college before going pro. " The rule also gives players a chance to change their minds if they feel they are not ready" (McDiffett 12). They thought that the players going straight to the NBA were not very prepared and this would help with that. The players only have to go to college for one year to be able to go pro, but it used to be that the player could come straight out of high school into the professional league.

The one and done rule does not say a player must attend college after high school but by it not letting a player attend the draft until one year has passed after their high school class graduated it

For the last ten years the NBA rule of One-and-Done has been and continues to be a controversial topic on whether it benefits the athlete or colleges. While this rule is endorsed by the NCAA the rule states that players are not allowed to enter the NBA draft until one year after their high school class graduation and be at least 19 years old during the calendar year of the NBA draft.

College student-athletes are amateurs and should be treated as such. Playing in the NCAA as an athlete means that you are an amateur and not a professional. “Students are not professional athletes who are paid salaries and incentives for a career in sports. They are students receiving access to a college education through their participation in sports, for which they earn scholarships to pay tuition, fees, room and board and other allowable expenses.” (Mitchell). These athletic programs allow the players to continue playing the sports they love at a higher level while receiving a higher education as well. College sports would turn into a bidding war, create a “free agency” and ruin the overall idea of amateurism that the NCAA was founded on if salaries were involved. Larger schools that make more revenue or have more money to offer could easily persuade the top recruits to come and play for them. This would create a bidding war and a certain type of “free agency” that is foreign to the NCAA because the idea of being an amateur

     College athletes are not forced into playing the sport that they have devoted their time to during their years in secondary education. They continue to play into the college level for their love of the game.

Currently, the league does not require players to play NCAA basketball as you can be drafted after playing a season overseas. However, for many high school graduates attending college has becomes their only option in pursing the dream to one-day play in the NBA.

“It tarnishes what we’re trying to do as coaches; it tarnishes the idea that kids are here to get an education.” Tad Boyle, Colorado men’s basketball head coach from USAtoday.com. With AAU tournaments and Prep Schools getting them ready for the next level, there is much young basketball talent that is considered “NBA ready” within their first year of college. College basketball players should be required to stay in college for at least three years. With all the hype surrounding them to become young superstars, some athletes and members of NBA front offices don’t realize how important two or three more years of college could be to them. The NCAA has a rule like this set on college football players, so the rule for basketball shouldn’t be any different. These extra three years could give these players more time to develop their skills, physique, and get an education,
