Bogut In, Morrison Out

Utah's Andrew Bogut has officially declared for the NBA draft and will almost certainly be a top 5 pick. Adam Morrison, on the other hand, has decided to forgo the draft for another year in college. He was likely a top 10 pick, so Gonzaga should consider themselves very lucky to have him one more year.
