Do you have to ask???

The chances of Josh Cunningham not exhausting his college eligibility are about the same as him playing in the NBA. Close to zero. If Josh was an NBA prospect, then the medical risk argument (particularly given his history) would be valid. Josh can get a nice contract in Europe but it can wait. Grad school and/or working to set himself up for a future coaching position would be wise investment in the interim.

Bingo. If Josh leaves UD, this is probably the driving force. A better chance at winning in the tourney elsewhere in his final year. He absolutely has something to prove at the college level, probably more than just about any player, because he was a shell of himself when he played in the tourney. What player doesn't dream about taking a team on a deep NCAA tourney run?
