Don't worry, you're doing better without managing then several people who are. Apparently your team is playing injury free ball.

Bottom line is he is now on the radar and he will just have to build on that. To have a first round pick from Butler would be huge for this program. I have no reason to think it will be this coming year, but if he has a couple great seasons and good runs in the NCAA, after 2011 he could definitely be a top 20 pick.

I agree about him possibly in the draft after his Junior season...I think that...

It's a great article, but I said I thought it was jumping the gun a little to mention Hayward as an NBA draft pick (let alone a first-rounder). I know scouts said he was...

This dude likes Gordo more than Hayward4prez...

Anyways, here is my take. Gordon is definitely talented enough to play at the next level, furthermore he has a vast amount of untapped potential...

However, even if Jeff Goodman realizes this, I think a lot of NBA scouts will still look over him (at least for another year or so.) We don't play a style or system that will allow Gordo to put up 30 ever night like Adam Morrison or Stephan Curry did. (And I think he'd...

This article is great recognition for Gordon and for the Butler program. This can only help with recruiting.

That said, the only way I see Gordon leaving after his sophomore year if he is a lottery pick. I could see Gordon go pro after Butler wins the NCAA championship in 2011 when Matt is a senior.

he better be damn sure that he will be a first rounder if he leaves early. if he slips to the 2nd round like dejaun blair, sam yound and derrick brown there is no guaranteed money and he could have lost out on priceless experience in the college game. while it is great to see his name being listed, this 2010 mock draft has about as much credibility as the 2010 bracket projections.

16. Gordon Hayward, 6-8, 210, SF, Soph., Butler: Love this kid. He may not be quite ready after two years, but he's a big-time shooter who puts it on the floor, can handle the ball and makes the right pass virtually every time.
