My most compelling evidence is my claim that high school athletes can progress their basketball skills by going to college. When high school athletes jump straight to the NBA they still have the game and mindset of a high school student. College can help these student athletes progress their game. Higher level coaches and trainer can help athletes adjust to the next level. Also playing in college games can help high school students adjust to the faster pace of the game, and the atmosphere of playing on a big stage. Going to college even if it is just for one year can help athletes progress their game, and get themselves ready for the next level.
My weakest evidence is my claim that spending one extra year in school can help students become more educated. Students spending one year in college should become more educated, but you never know if they are just blowing off their classes. I assume a student athlete that is serious about becoming a professional basketball player, or that is serious about their education should take their classes serious. This would allow them to get a college education and take classes they didn't get the chance to take during high school. It makes sense that they would become more educated, but i would say its my weakest because we never know how serious they are taking their classes.
