Sounds like Eric Gordon is gone for good

I heard he wasn't at Crean's first meeting with the players. It's probably safe to say he's made his decision to jump to the NBA

Yep ESPN is reporting he's declaring. This is what we all expected since he committed here, no surprise.

No kidding. It's far from "breaking news".. though it's nice to finally know what he's going to be doing. When's his official announcement due, anyone know?

Part of me really wanted him to stay. I thought deep down inside that he would actually consider it. Obviously that was pretty dumb of me...

I thought with Crean and with all the critics noticing the holes in his game he might stay too... guess we're both dumb.

Like the others have said, this is really no surprise to me.

He would have helped us a lot if he had stayed, but we wouldn't have been competing seriously for the national title, so what would have been the point?
