Gani Lawal is leaving Georgia Tech for the NBA, the school announced Friday.

The question now is how many teammates will join him?

2008-09 record: 30-7 overall, 11-5 ACC (third)

Postseason: 2-1, lost to Villanova in third round

Projected starting lineup: G Nolan Smith, G Jon Scheyer, G/F Kyle Singler (right), F Lance Thomas, F Brian Zoubek

In a shock to no one, Greivis Vasquez — a second-round pick at best — will return to Maryland for his senior season, rescuing the Terps from a season in the abyss.

That makes the Terps the big winner in this year's draft version of "In or Out." Maryland gets to chase another 8-8 season with its best player, which puts them slightly behind last year's draft exit-strategy winner (UNC, duh).

Georgia Tech forward Gani Lawal plans to pull out of the NBA draft before Monday's 5 p.m. deadline, the forward told ESPN.com.

"I'm going back to school," Lawal said, according to the website. "I sat down with my family and after going through this positive experience, where I learned a lot and got a lot of exposure, I realized the best thing for me to do was to go back."

You knew Georgia Tech couldn't make it another offseason without losing an NBA Draft prospect. Forward Gani Lawal, who led the ACC in rebounding as a sophomore, will enter his name in the draft without hiring an agent, the school announced Monday.

The only surprise is that Lawal lasted two seasons — and that freshman Iman Shumpert hasn't followed him to the draft waters (yet?).

Of the 10 one-and-done players in ACC history, five went to Georgia Tech (Stephon Marbury, Chris Bosh, Dion Glover, Javaris Crittenton and Thad Young).
