Sounds like Shack is not coming back. Lose both Shack and Primo and that is definitely gonna lower my expectations .

This Sucks... because had Nate known they were leaving he could have easily filled thieir spots with top tier transfers

I'll be very shocked is Shackelford doesn't come back back.

Definitely not as excited with both leaving. I guess it's Bama basketball luck. Could have brought in another guard from the portal.

Oh he is coming back to college... it just won’t be here.

Don’t make sense to me, ain’t nobody else gonna give the freedom offensively we would.

Maybe Nate can talk sense into him

Who is your source on this? Someone who works at BOL or a poster?

Rivals and BOL.

BOL has their version of Boz and he is usually right about this stuff.

Rivals guys say he is gone too.

Nate is looking to add. Either through the portal or a 22 guy who can reclass

My excitement hasn't changed, but my expectations have lowered a little bit. Even without them, I'd expect this to be a preseason top 10 team. You'll definitely see a lot more of Ellis, as well as Holt and Miles.

There only reason I could see Shack not wanting to return, is that he'd be handling the ball less, and playing more of a sg role with Q and JD likely our main PGs. But with his size, being a sg in the NBA seems unlikely.


Edit: if y'all want a laugh, look at Shack's Wikipedia page personal section...

I doubt there anyone left in the portal that's worth a damn.

I just looked on rivals and only see one guy who said he thinks Shack is leaving and he seems to just be a regular poster.

No names...this is what was posted about Shack...

The timeline was: Shack to UCLA rumor. Oats met with Shack. Shack deciding to stay. Shack goes back to Cali. It appears someone got in his ear about going pro in some capacity, or transferring. I’m not sure tbh.

Agree, I wondered if there was anybody left that could play. Seems late for that.

Oh yeah we are still gonna be good. But with Primo and Shack I thought we had a chance to win the National Title.

Shackelford isnt supposed to be on campus right now, he hasnt even announced he is withdrawing from the draft yet. I think its just wild speculation that he is transferring based on him not being on campus right now, when he isnt even supposed to be on campus right now.

These rumors have been around for at least a month.

With the NIL kicking in If I was Primo I would come back.

He can make a decent amount here this year and pretty much is guaranteed to be a lottery guy next year.

None of these kids have patience

I will be extremely shocked if shack isn’t back. I agree, I’m not even sure he’s supposed to be back right now and he hasn’t pulled his name out yet. But I can also say that the rumors aren’t the most encouraging things in the world.
