LSU latest basketball program to tap into G League ranks, signing former pro guard RJ Luis Jr

Speaking of which, we saw yet another case of a college basketball team tapping into the pro ranks to land a player, as the LSU Tigers and head coach Will Wade signed G League guard RJ Luis Jr. earlier on Tuesday.

He was, however, signed to a professional team, and is currently ineligible to play for the Tigers this coming season, so he will have to file a lawsuit to resume his college career.

It's tough to say whether Luis will be ruled eligible or not, but if he gets the green flag, the floodgates will open for college hoops programs across the country to try and sign as many undrafted free agents and G League players as they can.

If you're a big college sports fan and you're worried about the sport falling down a slippery slope, I'd go ahead and toss those fears out the window, because we seem to already be at the bottom of Mount Everest.

Whether or not we can ever climb back to the summit remains to be seen, but I'm not going to get my hopes up anytime soon.
