Tough loss for you guys. Any idea who y'all might go after to replace him?

They were banking on Ferguson too. They will have a ton of role player talent but they are missing go to guys on offense.

Yeah. Terrance Ferguson. Not saying he'll recommit (mom likes Kansas and the coach likes Baylor), but the kid likes Bama. They'll not give up on him.


All that said, you could see it coming from a long way off. The fact that he didn't sign in the early signing period signaled leaving options open.

Jerry Meyer posted on BOL and said that Bama most likely bows out of this one. Says it would be better off to "punt" and let it go.

Did a spot at Kansas just open up for him?

It would be difficult to pass up playing for Kansas.

Would imply either A) wasting time b/c he's not coming, B) potential issues with recruitment, or C) both.

If he ends up at Baylor I'd go with C. If he ends up at Kansas I'd go with A.

No other way to put it, this is a serious kick to the nuts. Was probably always too good to be true, but a guy that a lot of the scouts thought was really a Top 5-7 player with tons of room to grow and probably not a 1 and done guy.............

Yea, this is a major setback.

Im so glad we got Heron in the early signing period. Massive weight off of our coaches shoulders and something else that I don't have to worry about.
I still find it odd that he committed one day after our five star committed.

Good luck wherever he goes- likely Kansas.

Still have Braxton Key and Armond, but it fricking sucks to lose a big name like that. Ugh sometimes Bama basketball can kick you right in the penis.

JJ Caldwell dominated API from beginning to end.

Ferguson didn't do much.

Not convinced Ferguson isn't overrated somewhat anyway.

Kind of sucks that he recruited for Bama and those guys signed and now he is taking off elsewhere.

I'm hoping those guys start recruiting him back. But I'm not holding my breath. It hasn't been a super Tuesday.

Biggest problem I have with it and why I really didn't considered him not signing early to be that big of a deal. I'm not going to tell him to go to hell or anything, but I sure as hell am not going to post that classy bullshite and say "Goodluck to him wherever he goes". This is the most jilted I've ever felt after a decommitment.
