Kevin Durant Is out of Here
By Mark Fagan, 4:00PM, Tue. Apr. 10, 2007
After winning pretty much every major award at the college level, UT freshman phenom Kevin Durant announced that he is entering the NBA draft and will be hiring an agent. It is certainly Texas' loss, but Durant's value can't really get any higher than it is right now, and look what happened when USC QB Matt Leinart decided to stay in college an extra year. Vince Young happened, and Leinart's value dropped considerably. Not his talent but his draft value, which translated into the loss of millions. Good luck Kevin, and we'll miss ya. A press conference is scheduled for about right now (4pm).
