Steve Fisher refuted a report that indicated Jamaal Franklin will forgo his senior season at San Diego State and enter the NBA draft.
“I’m disappointed that people wouldn’t be more respectful to call me or talk directly to Jamaal,” Fisher said. “I have talked repeatedly with Jamaal over the past few weeks. We talked earlier today. I talked to him 20 minutes ago. And he hasn’t made any decision.
“I’m continuing to gather information to help him make an educated decision. But he hasn’t made a decision. I’m sure of that.”
Franklin has been projected by some scouts as a mid-to-late first round pick.
