Joakim Noah, Al Horford and Corey Brewer – three sophomores who had been projected as first-round NBA draft picks this summer – disclosed in a choreographed skit that they intend to return for another season.

“We’re back baby,” Noah screamed into a microphone during the team’s hourlong celebration Friday night at a packed O’Connell Center.

i can understand brewer and maybe Horford, but Noah is a dumbass not to go. What is left to do, and right now he is #2 on nbadraft.net

Smart move. Thank god there are still some kids out there using their brains instead of blindly rushing their development and college education all for the money.

yeah Noah is an idiot. he just won the national championship and is projected top 3.

Win another national championship, develop your game some more, go for an undefeated season.

Maybe he wants to be ready to play NBA ball, not just go for the money?

yeah there are other things he could strive for but right now he is projected 2nd. He is almost 7’ tall and around 230. He has two years experience in College, i say he is crazy not to go. I love the college game and i hate the NBA but the reality is there is a lot that a couple million from just playing can do along with the fact that his hair and distinct look cant hurt him with endorsements.

Who says he isn’t making good money playing at UF right now?

Excellent point

His dad is an international rockstar, money is no issue to him and he sure seems to be enjoying himself at UF.

Not a good financial move for Noah, to be sure, but, yeah the fam is loaded and he’s having fun…so be it.

His dad wasn’t a bad tennis player either.

“We’re back baby,” Noah screamed into a microphone"

NO WAY. Noah screaming into a microphone. You have got to be kidding me.

There is a lot of time and many agents yet to talk to so I would not hold my breath on this disclosure.

^^^ Agreed. I remember Sean May saying the same thing, and look how that turned out. It’s to early

#2 to the Bobcats. Because Emeka Okafor and Sean May aren’t enough at the 4 spot. Or maybe he can bump out Primo Brezec/Melvin Ely.

That site is a joke. No way Tyrus Thomas goes number one. No way Noah would have been #2. Top 5 is a possibility. However LaMarcus Aldridge, Rudy Gay and Adam Morrison are the top 3 in this draft.

NBAdraft.net has been pretty good as far as the top 20 picks or so go. Through camps and different workouts that list will change, but nothing tremendous. I get what you are saying about the bobcats but how many games combined have may and okafor played this year? 48
They are starting to seem very satisfied with the direction of knight, felton, and wallace. If may/okafor could stay healthy it would be great. Primo isn’t a terrible basketball player, he gets the job done. the bad thing is, this is the NBA, primo doesnt sell jerseys or tickets.

That’s what I was thinking. He’s already a millionaire, well, at least his dad is. Noah doesn’t need the money and can pull some tang for another year at UF. Who wouldn’t stay?

Noah is one ugly mofo.
