Yes, every game. Howland wants him to play a stretch 4 Kegler wants to play the 2 & 3. Sucks.


Is this the guy that lost the ball anytime he put it on the floor?

yes, dear god he had the worst handles in cbb.

I have some friends that are close with a couple of the guys on the basketball team and they said it's all because he wants to be a 2/3 and be a primary scorer and Howland wants him playing the 4 and being a defender/rebounder for us. Apparently he has a lot of people that are in his ear saying he is being misused.

He showed toward the end of the year that when he actually tried he was a good defender and rebounder but whatever best of luck to the guy

Sidney actually had a ton of talent he was just a lazy pos that couldn't stay in shape and had a bad attitude.

Malik Newman was hurt all year... never 100%. I still think he turns out to be a good player, but he saw the writing on the wall and that is Q spoon's little bro was coming in and gonna challenge him for his spot. not sure he was worthy of the 5 star tho... 5 stars should be relegated to about 10-20 recruits that are one and done or 2 and done and it is obvious.

True but his biggest problem might have been his daddy.

Good riddance.. the guy's a defensive liability and really didn't seem to put out 100% effort. He can be Mizzou's cancer now.

Love how a freshman who averaged almost 10 points and started every game suddenly sucked and Mississippi State will be better off without him

Howland is 0 for 2 in offseasons so far. I'd be surprised if Mississippi State isn't toward the bottom of the SEC again next year

Love how you all of the sudden seem to know everything there is about Miss State basketball becuase you can read statistics.

I watched a bunch of games last year

Kegler wasn't bad. He was a bit of a disappointment compared to expectations, but so was everyone else on the team besides Q and Peters. Let's not forget he was a freshman. Most freshmen, especially forwards and centers, take some time to develop

The fact that another Top 50 player is transferring after his freshman season is bad news for Howland regardless of how you feel about Kegler. And Mississippi State doesn't really have a replacement for him at that 3/4 spot. He would've played a lot and been one of your best players so acting like him being gone is a good thing is silly

Program instability has always been a problem for Howland but he's not attracting the same type of talent to MSU that he did to UCLA. And the longer it takes to start winning (which won't be next year), the harder it'll be to turn it around

kegler was a bit of a surprise though... he wants to be a Lebron position... guard forward and center all in one.
