Caracter won't be back
Depending on a couple of key decisions and the impact of some promising newcomers, the Cards could have a chance to attain greatness next season. They lose three seniors -- David Padgett, Juan Palacios and Terrance Farley -- whose leadership and selflessness will be hard to replace. The team took off this season when Padgett and Palacios returned to health after early-season knee injuries. Sophomore center Derrick Caracter also will not be back. His enigmatic college career ended with a whimper on Saturday, when he scored only two points and did not play in the second half against North Carolina. Still, the 6-foot-8 Caracter said he believes he can work his way into the NBA draft.

Derrick Caracter is a good player with a lot of potential, but by no means should he enter the draft!! The above article says he didn't play in the second half of the game against Carolina, how does he expect to compete in the NBA!? This would be a bad decision!

This is a terrible decision. He isn't anywhere close to ready and once he goes undrafted will probably struggle in Europe.

This is April Fool's Day, isn't it? Please Derrick, you're not anywhere close to Robert "Tractor" Traylor, so what makes you think you'll last?
