Could play in D-League or overseas. MK is 23 I believe, he may want to make $$ while he's still in his prime

I'm sure most believe it has less to do with being drafted and more to do with moving on...in whatever form that takes.

I don't expect MK back but I do expect everyone else besides the seniors. Of course, you never know what could happen. I'd LOVE to see MK and Tolbert together in the front court. That would be just down right beastly. (and with all that perimeter skill plus BenM would be fun to watch).

Duke transfer Semi Ojeleye has committed to SMU, sources told CBSSports.com on Saturday afternoon.

The 6-foot-8 forward will be eligible in December of 2015 and will have 2 1/2 years of eligibility remaining.

A former Top 50 recruit out of high school, Ojeleye averaged 3.0 points and 2.3 rebounds in six games this season for Duke.

Ojeleye will join a Mustangs front court that will feature veterans Markus Kennedy and Ben Moore along with Texas Tech transfer Jordan Tolbert.

SMU is 8-3 this season.

It would be awesome if Markus somehow stayed and was eligible.
