The cool thing everyone wanted to do out of HS in Washington is "move to cali!!1". There is this weird stigma about getting the fuck out of Washington even though it's really not that bad here.

Great marketing pitch for the tourism bureau New bored motto?
Yeah I don't really buy that as the reason his dad isn't all in on UW. He's probably just proud and wants his son to got to a nationally relevant program. Its not like we're the only school with a good pitch.
I don't know his personal situation. But for a school like UW, being a local kid, there's generally little upside to leaving.
He will get full minutes in year 1 here. UW will be top 2 pretty much no matter what in conference, meaning he'll be noticed. We have had many top picks the last few years, it's not like he's going to a forgotten program like Cal, or TCU or something.
If he leaves, goes to a blue blood like Duke or Kentucky. He won't stand out as much and the local community won't care, he'll be just another rent a player.
If he kills it at Duke, he'll be just another in a long line of players. If he kills it at UW, he'll make headlines.
That being said, he goes to Kentucky and hopefully doesn't flop like Terrance Jones.
Yeah, if his goal is to be 1 and done, Kentucky is a much higher risk for him because there will be 3 or 4 guys on the team ranked higher than him
That's not a risk at all. There's been more than one instance of a one-and-done Kentucky bench player being a lottery pick.
