I'll point out that the founding fathers of our country disagree with your individual approach and wrote into the Constitution certain age requirements for holding federal office. US House rep = 25 years, US Senate = 30, US President = 35. Now why do you think that they did that?
It seems that they didn't believe that those 18 and 20 year olds who fought in the war to establish this country were ready to lead it administratively.

Also given what life expectancy was back at that time and what it is now, I would argue that those numbers would be even higher if the Constitution were to be drafted today.

IMO 35-55 is the age range in which people have the most balance of physical ability and mental maturity/experience to handle the rigors of D1 basketball.

But as always each is entitled to his/her own opinion and I have no qualms with anyone expressing those thoughts (wrong as they may be).

Believe as you wish.
