Hope he's just exploring like Smart. If Reid can't play, Williams has NO shot. Love his energy but they will foul him out of any G league game FAST. Better do some more praying, son. He's too small for his game. No handle, shot, or perimeter defense. See what the Scouts say, stay another year to improve on what they tell you. If you're tired of school you are just going to have to suck it up for another year! That's life my man. It will allow you 3 squares, life perspective, and the opportunity to give yourself a shot at a Professional Basketball career somewhere...isn't that what you want?

I don't think he would post that if he was just exploring. He won't be back

He can’t explore, he declared last year and withdrew. Can only do that once

Negotiations broke down

Wade only has so many strong arse offers he can give out. They have to start winning first.

How many bail bonds are tie the gators posting this offseason?

He’s been my favorite player since he got here

CanebreakCajun•61 months

damn. He improved so much between freshman and sophomore years, I was expecting to see another major improvement between sophomore and junior years. That would have put him in real good draft position. But, he is a legit Tiger, with big heart and I hope he does very well.

Not sure what games you watched. I didn't see much improvement at all. Consistency is his biggest weakness. He never could put together 2 good games in a row. 1 really solid performance followed by 3 or 4 non-impact games.

He does have some talent, but I wish he would have stayed. Not too sure he’ll get drafted.

Tigrdynasty•61 months

Not going to get drafted, imo
