Corey Sanders returns to Rutgers, puts off NBA for another year

As a high school recruit who became a YouTube sensation for his basketball highlights, Corey Sanders was known for 180-degree dunks.

Who knew Rutgers' star point guard would pull a 180 when it came time to deciding whether to keep his name in the NBA Draft or return to college for another year?

One day after saying he was "leaning towards coming out'' for the NBA Draft, Sanders reversed course by electing to return to Rutgers. The Rutgers men's basketball program announced the return of its best player on its Twitter account late Tuesday night.
