It seems like a bad decision to me, but IF Fred is telling him to go pro then he should definitely do it.

Bummer. Great for Royce and his family though. Looks like we might be a bubble team again next year. I like our team but with Royce gone, none of the analysts are going to give us any love. Have to fight for it all over again. Always have a fan in me Royce. :)

I think John Walter's said it best with his tweet yesterday. I think Royce could go lottery once NBA Execs. sit down and meet with him face to face. His play has gotten him to the late first round. Him being able to address GMs concerns will get him into the lottery, I really believe that.

Happy for Royce and would have been shocked if he stayed another year.

Don't be afraid to donate some of your riches back to ISU.

No surprise, but for some reason I thought he would take a little longer to decide. Best of luck to Royce.

This will be great press for Fred and the program... taking a reclamation project and turning him into an NBA player (and one who has seemingly turned into a model citizen) in such a short time.

Going to be interesting to follow recruiting this year. Wouldn't be surprised to see us take another transfer or two, we will lose a lot of seniors next year.

Best of luck to Royce! I really hope he is first round pick, but I'm guessing Hoiberg thinks he is if he is going. You have our support!

I don't know the full story but I have wondered. I know that RW has some issues with flying, as well as anxiety in general. Has he generally drove to games like he did to the NCAA tournament or is he ok with flying and only drove to the NCAA tournament because of the longer period of time available?

Is it not that big of an issue or is it a serious issue with him?

2 road games + NCAA Tourney I believe was all he drove to.

Wish it could have lasted another year, our team could have been scary good. Wish Royce the best of luck though, really respect him.
