Alabama's Labaron Philon will enter the NBA Draft

[shaudyshaud]

“All in” on his pro career . Alabama is losing more than expected it seems .

 

[cornbreadnmilk]

Good news. That guy is a stud.

 

[BassProCat]

Sheesh

So Alabama will have Holloway, Wrightsell (he's getting a redshirt and returning right? and Bol and who else? seems like they wont be as deep as they were the last 2 years

 

[Emarc]

Why not?

Holloway, Wrightsell, Mallette, and Sherrell returning right now. Bol plus Bethea from Miami and Williamson from Bucknell transferring in plus some freshmen who might be good, but don’t project to be elite for now. Unless they clean up on guys who withdraw from the draft last minute, it looks like it could be a bit of a rebuilding year.

 

[SemperFiCat]

Behold, the greatest freshman in SEC history. Or so I heard.

 

[ThunderCat98]

That's fair. Kid's a baller.

 

[bowfreak]

I am not surprised. He’s very good.

 

[St.PatterSoN-54-]

Subtraction by addition, or something like that.....

 

[Catluv]

Can’t stand the guy he bowed Owen in the face on a basketball move!! Terrible call!!

 

[Hank Camacho]

That kid is legit. If he wanted to join Mo Dioubate in Lexington next year, I'm sure we could find room.

 

[Stretch98]

Much more formidable player than Pettiford at Auburn IMO.

 

[ukpence]

Dude is good enough to go pro. For me personally though, as long as he doesn't go back to Alabama I'm happy. 😅

Was the best option on the team to run point next year IMO. Bethea from the U may be what we need because I don’t have faith in any of the others to run the point like we need. They can all fill it up from 3 but somebody on this team is going to need to be able to get to the rim.

Something’s up… everybody’s bailing 🤨

 

[chroix]

No way they expected him back.

They were destined for one down year, they had 4 years in a row of pretty elite teams.

 

[Padsfs07]

The portal is still open too. Philon was committed to the Jayhawks at this time last year.

 

[Coach Marrow]

I love his first name

Oats isn’t going anywhere for now. But if Hubert bombs next season — and all indications are that he will — I think he takes the UNCheat job.

Would UNC hire off tree? A former Hurley assistant, even? (Or does Oats have a UNC connection I don’t know about?)

No connection that I’m aware of, but after the failures of Doherty and Hubert, I think they’d look outside the family. Who they gonna go to, Wes Miller? Guy has proven nothing.

 

[tomrain]

Maybe they can appeal and get Sears a tenth year 🤔

Feel ya on that

I’m hoping UNC’s institutional narcissism keeps them tied up in knots for a while.

 

[CELTICAT]

Thank goodness. One of those guys that relished tearing us up.
