Is the NCAA doing the right thing with regards to college requirements for its athletes before they turn pro?

I feel that the NCAA needs to raise their requirements. I enjoy see young, fresh basketball players like Kevin Durant (A great basketball player!) go to the NBA and play with the "big kids." But I feel that these players need a little more, a back-up plan. Many of us who watch pro circuits often see young and upcoming college freshmen and sophmores drafting, only to see them fade into the background of the pro game. This may not be the situation for Durant and even McRoberts from Duke. But I think that something needs to change and guidelines into rules. I love the role models that appear but hate knowing that if they could have just waited one more year they could have been even more.
