Highly doubt Bruce will dip his toe back in that pool. Too much headache for a guy that probably hops in portal gain when Pegues/Pettiford take the minutes

Would be awesome if we could get him back. Already seemed to be ok with playing with Pettiford.

They were working overt NIL with Godfrey last I heard, but this stuff always changes.

Meh, I don’t see Philon as an instant impact guy and given the fact that he’s shown he likes to change his mind a lot, I would be surprised if he finished at the school he starts at.

Exactly. With the way the transfer rules are set up unless they're a legit one and done prospect you're better off getting a lot of these kids the second time around when they're actually ready to compete at the college level.

Does anybody remember the team of Malcolm Canada, Kareem Canty, Antoine Mason?


There is another end of the spectrum where you got a bunch of vets coming in wanting to get their shots up because nobody has time for teamwork.

I remember when Bruce had to play Malcom Canada some at the 4 spot because we had no depth or size.

Talk of Philon to bama. Don’t get that fit at all. I 100% understand Oats wanting Aden. He’s experienced and has potential to be a great 3 pt shooter. Philon on the other hand struggles from 3 and is more of a driving guard. If Sears goes pro I’m curious if Oats tries to grab another, veteran G.

Aden has been sold on a dream that he is going to get PT

I could see Philon at Ole Miss too.

If looking at Bama, Oats may think he can improve his shot and he’d get a bigger Sears

In state kid that was committed to us for a while. He’s good but I’m not as sold as others he’s the type that can come in and dominate as a freshman. He’d be a nice piece for anyone though

Yeah their roster is shaping up nicely. AU vs Bama is bigger than UNC vs Duke next season.

Cliff is visiting UNC and UCLA next week. Hopefully he goes that direction.

If they don't get Cliff and Sears doesn't return I see them as more of a top 20 roster. If both of them end up with Bama they are a top 5 roster.

I see Auburn as a top 5 roster as well if we can fill out the 4 spot.
