Now that it's confirmed that Darius Morris is exploring his NBA Draft potential, the debate is raging over whether declaring early or returning to school is the right choice for the Michigan basketball sophomore point guard.

Former Michigan player and current ESPN analyst Tim McCormick told the Detroit News he thinks Morris should stay in college.

Big Ten Network analyst Jimmy Jackson broke down Morris' strengths and weaknesses in the following video clip. Jackson says he doesn't think Morris is ready for the draft, but thinks he is "doing it strategically to get a sense and feel for what the pros think about him and what areas he needs to improve in.”

Morris will learn the opinion of the NBA's Undergraduate Advisory Committee on or before April 18.

"These are the specialists in the NBA at this," coach John Beilein said. "This is who you should be allowing to advise you."
