If anyone leaves is expect it to be Mitchell. He seemed upset about grant leaving. The rest should all stay

I'm not worried about Mitchell. I was more worried about Coleman, but this hire couldn't have been better in terms of keeping him. CAJ made it in the NBA as an undersized PG. It'd be a pretty easy sale for him to make. I actually think this hire will keep everyone on board, but the 2 I'd look out for would be Retin and Hale.

I'd also add Ingram to the OP.

i feel pretty good about retin. he was excited about the hire. plus, it wouldnt make sense for a senior PG to go to another program and try to fit in with a new group of players. if he leaves, i would think it would be for Europe.

Hale seems a bit mercurial, but he's one of the more talented players on the team and he would almost certainly be the starter at PF next season. Why leave?

if a few studs come calling and room has to be made then the obvious choice is Obahasan since he is a fifth year senior and should have his degree.

I don't think anyone should leave or be made to leave. Our roster isn't bad at all.

I could see it but I don't want to expect too much in the first season.

I realize it's not a normal last name, but like you said it'll be his 5th season, you should be able to spell it remotely correct by now.

Anyways Obasohan turned in on at the end of the season and showed what he's capable of. If he's not our leading scorer, I think he'll be our 2nd leading scorer. Would be dumb to kick him off.

Not saying it's impossible, but that would be one of the more epic single season turnarounds in SEC history I think

We dont have an NBA prospect on the roster. Get read dude

And AJ alluded to tough decisions that may have to be made. So if a stud 5 star who is not committed or who flips comes calling you think AJ will tell the kid, sorry, I dont have a spot for you because I am "required" to keep the players who could not get this team to the dance in the past 3 years.

5th year senior and is not owed a 5th year. Our opinions were asked and I gave mine. Dont chit on me for spelling his name wrong, if that is all you got to attack me on.

Agree. Obasohan has the skills and ability to dominate under the right coaching. He can do it all and is tough on defense as well.

Who on Bama's team has a legit shot to play in the NBA (not talking about D league here)?

I think you'll find that our players look a lot better if they're coached better.

Those mid-major programs that make runs in the tournament every year very often have less talent that what has been on our roster for the past 6 years.
