There's nikkas that played 0 minutes after OOC play on our team that got more than they were getting on good mid major teams (JP Pegues). If you're a MM, you're just gonna have to survive on project pieces and maybe one decent talent that takes a lil less to show his talent off for the next season

I forgot Pegues even existed, I remember when he signed and was being pegged as a potential starter, definitely one of the bigger portal busts from last offseason

Maybe one of the biggest of the whole era tbh. Dude was cooked before we got out of December. And this is after being given like the first two games as a starter. Auburn rather have live and died with a 7-8 man rotation in the tourney than give the guy burn

This portal shyt in basketball is worse than it is in football all these dumb mfs entering the portal when there’s only so many spots. Teams gotta build a whole new team every season now.

Just look at AJ Storr.

He was looking like a sure fire draft pick at Wisconsin. Chased the bag at Kansas, had a terrible year, and is in the portal again. After his terrible season, you can't give him a lot of NIL money. He will definitely play overseas, but the NBA is out of the question.

I for one, HATE this rebuild every year shít

Yea same with Rylan Griffen. Now he’s begging to come back to Bama smh.

It’s just hard to be a fan when it’s a totally new group of players every season. Makes it hard to have a favorite player.

One of the fun things about college basketball was starting the season with a bunch of young players that were actually recruited by that school. Seeing them go through the growing pains and you hear the analysts say "this is a team you will not want to play next year"
