Mac and Tim both have said JQ gave back what we paid him when he transferred. I can’t hate no more if that’s the case.


I wonder if he regrets his decision. I guess it would depend on how big of a bag he got from Memphis. If it was like double what we offered then probably not, but imagine leaving a Final Four team for that shite team over like $10,000.

It’s even bigger than that though. He legitimately had a chance to be the most accomplished Alabama basketball player of all time. The amount of SEC titles and him really being here when that switch started to happen. He was beloved at Alabama. He threw it away to go to Memphis. I can’t imagine they paid him that much more.

JQ should’ve been a guy we brought out years from now for a legends night or sold NiL bobbleheads of. Whatever he got extra from Memphis can’t be worth what it would’ve meant for him to be part of a team he helped turn around. Emotionally or monetarily in the long run.
