If saving two years becomes a trend, that would be worrisome. Lots of guys have taken the injury year as a grad transfer. Miller, Cancer, Caruso, Koon, Blasé, Hunt, I'm sure I'm forgetting some. Mitola and Hicks are the only guys I can remember preserving the year while healthy. Though Hicks' situation might have been mutual. So that leaves Mitola and Boudreaux as the only guys in the league I can think of who did this totally of their own volition. That is probably a very bad thing for Dartmouth.

I suppose one could actually recruit to it and see if you could attract stronger players for two years, with the pitch that you get an Ivy degree and still get two years of high major college basketball. Kind of the Ivy variation of the one and done.

Is the idea of Ivies allowing grad transfers anathema? Right now, we have a one way flow of grad transfers. Why not even that out and let kids do the opposite: play 2-3 years of high major basketball, and then go be a big fish in a smaller basketball pond for a year while getting started on an Ivy grad degree.
