I've always played allowing underclassmen to declare. With the low prestige schools I now almost always take on, it makes no difference since none of the players are good enough to declare early. When I used to play at higher prestige programs, sometimes I would lose a player or two and would have to go after transfer players or leave a scholarship unfilled for a year, but I still had plenty of good players to maintain a strong team. And many teams within the 'power' conferences will have players declaring early, so everyone within a given conference is on pretty equal footing.
Being able to declare early dates back to the early 1970's (google "Spencer Haywood").
