Nice! He has the potential to develop into an all-SEC first-teamer. Will be great to see him develop.

Shocker. I hate this routine of "entering" the draft and then withdrawing. Williams was NEVER going to be drafted and was never serious about leaving school. Freshmen role players making the big announcement that they're returning for their soph year .... LOL..........Just stop.

Better get use to it. As an aspiring NBA player, why wouldn't you "enter," get feedback and return. It's completely within the rules. Now these big announcements- I'm with you.

Naz should return seeing he will not be drafted.

BigTimer23•72 months

I bet he does get drafted

GeauxWarTigers•72 months

Pretty sure I've read that Naz can't return as he didn't request a pre-draft evaluation. Same with Waters.

Very glad to have him back. He was my favorite player on the team by a lot. Very talented and played with a ton of heart and energy. Dude will have a tremendous sophomore year/career here. Happy for him.

Got a great feeling Emmitt averages double points and close to double rebounds next year!!!

Finally, all the b-ball players made correct choices other than Naz and Tremonte

Tremonte’s draft stock wouldn’t get any higher IMO
