Next up for Julian is the Haggerty. Has to be either him or Mamu.
I don't think this was posted. Good article in the Pittsburgh Post Gazette from last week on Justin Champagnie which includes a lot of stuff on the family and Julian.

“Enjoy the process” may be in order and bet he returns. The Sept date to get closure of course not easy for staff, roster management and fan nerves.

As expected;
Julian Champagnie made the expected official on Thursday afternoon: He’s going to test the NBA Draft waters.The St. John’s sophomore will go through the evaluation process, along with his twin brother Justin, who made his own announcement on Tuesday.
Champagnie isn’t on any mock draft lists, but an NBA scout told The Post he believes Champagnie would likely be a second-round selection if he kept his name in the draft.

Good for Julian to test the waters. Hopefully, he comes back and try to parlay his stock into a first rounder. These days kids will settle if they're told by a team or two they'll be a second rounder. Unfortunately, there are many times those same kids end up being undrafted.Paultzman post=427837 said:

90% it's to get pro feedback on what he needs to develop and he'll be back. His statement almost says that. Not only is he not ready, you have to assume there is going to be a larger-than-usual number of players declaring. I don't think his aspiration is to be a mid- to low-second round pick, with another year he may play himself into first round consideration.

Whenever they test the process, there is always a chance you could lose them, I've seen guys that needed to come back end up staying.dad742 post=427852 said:
With that said, Zach just posted a tweet that was very encouraging, said unless Julian felt he would be taken in the top 30 in the draft, then he would return. So, considering on the top draft sites Julian isn't even listed in their top 60, on ESPN's top 100 board he isn't listed at all, so it seems like at this moment it's a very great chance he returns for his junior year.
I wouldn't be 100% sure about that from what I was told by someone I trust. Gun to head I think Julian comes back but it is not a given by any stretch.
