Mark Emmert reiterates dislike about one-and-done rule

Posted Nov 3, 2016
NCAA President Mark Emmert said Ben Simmons’ anger with the NCAA over having to play one year of college basketball at LSU before going on to the NBA is a misplaced emotion: "The one-and-done rule is something I’ve made no secret about how much I dislike it. It makes a farce of going to school. I’d love nothing more than for the NBA to get rid of that rule." (Baton Rouge Advocate)
