Will USF and Pitt even be able to field a team next season?

Are the Lawson brothers transferring to TSUN?

That has been the talk recently on Memphis RebRadio.

There are 2 more Lawson brothers - currently one is a top 25 recruit in the 2019 class & the other is a top 10 recruit in the 2021 class.

There's a better chance of the NCAA accepting the self-imposed penalties from Ole Miss than for those guys to end up playing basketball in Oxford.

I would think Pastner would make a run at those guys. Did he and the Lawsons depart on good terms?

I'm pretty sure this is where they end up. Pastner was the first coach to give the dad a position like that.

Pastner was removed but they kinda forced Lawson onto Tubby Smith's staff. That never works out well.

Tubby never quite embraced the whole AAU prima donna culture which seems to be at the root of this saga. And given the fact that the Lawsons held their press conference BEFORE they met with staff, it doesn't appear he ever will.

Speaking of UofM transfers, whatever happened to Austin Nichols? Last I heard he was booted off the team at UVA. Did he give up hoops all together?

Yep, he's done. His heart was never in it anyway.

and the AAU prima donna culture is what Josh Pastner is all about.

Bolden announced he was returning to Duke. Where are you getting the transfer stuff?

Well that certainly is a fluid situation. I had him penciled in to TCU. I guess Mom put her foot down.

I must say I'm surprised he is staying (if he actually does). In their last game when 4 of their 7-8 man rotation were in big time foul trouble, he never got off the bench.

He was injured early and in the NCAAs he had the flu. There were lots of rumors but he put that to bed. I don't think it's fluid at all.

A&M losing two backup guards - Eubanks and Smith

UK losing their entire backcourt - Fox, Monk, Briscoe. Likely to lose Adebayo to the draft and possibly Killeya-Jones and Humphries could be on the move.

Bama losing Austin and King

Auburn losing Lang

Tennessee losing Parker

More to come.

Looks like they are transferring to KU, which is all of the sudden becoming Transfer U.

On another front, Kevin Knox apparently wants to play with Michael Porter and Mizzou is now in the lead for his services. That would give them two of the top ten players in the country which could change their course quickly.

UK on the other hand has seen its roster depleted to the point they are chasing a grad transfer from Pitt. If Adebayo stays in the draft and they don't get Bamba, it could be a long year for them - shades of the ten-loss Tubby era.

Strange as it may sound, but Bama could be the favorite going in, because that PG they signed - Collin Sexton - is terrific.

I really like Bama next year. Petty is a player too.
