Sports Illustrated (not their Stanford affiliate site) did a nice piece on Tyrell Terry and just the challenges he had in the NBA from a mental health standpoint. Clearly a guy who left college too soon. One interesting tidbit was that he said he's open to returning to Stanford and finishing his degree. That actually sounds like what he's hoping/planning to do. Philosophy is something he might study.
If that happens, I'll definitely see if I can run him down and do a story on him. Hopefully it all works out for him.

Why Tyrell Terry retired from pro basketball at 22 - Sports Illustrated
Tyrell Terry had a spot on a promising Dallas team at 20. But life in the league was taking a toll on his mental health. Now he’s given up pro basketball and has no interest in ever going back.
