Steve Davis: Don't Go, Melo

The evidence seems to be mounting that Melo Trimble would be wise to skip the NBA draft and come back to Maryland for his junior year.

They had the NBA combine for potential players last week and the reviews on Melo are mixed at best.

Chad Ford from ESPN put Melo on his "All-Go-Back-To-School-Team" and Jay Bilas and Jay Williams, also from ESPN, thought Melo would be better served to return to Maryland.

We had Tony Massenburg on the show, and the former Terp, who played 15 years in the NBA, says it's a no-brainer for Melo to skip the draft. You can listen here, it's last question in the interview.

Melo said he will make a decision by the deadline, which is Friday, May 25, and is 50-50. I hope he doesn't flip a coin. Instead, he should wait to cash in until next year.
