This was always the likely outcome, but I really respect how John Blackwell handled it. He went through the NBA Draft process, got honest feedback from scouts, and made it clear all along that if he didn’t turn pro, he’d be back in Madison. Now he’s in line for a monster junior season.
4:30 am, and you've already made my day!!! Thank you Blackwell & Badgers!

Honesty, integrity, intelligence, and loyalty! We're fortunate to have him on our team. Kind of a novelty in this day and age.
