Case in point, Harris picked us because we got in early on him. Players in ‘21 & ‘22 with real skill can already be slipping away sadly I find it hard to believe that no one is recruiting for us now? Did we ever find out exactly why he left to begin with? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 So we have 2 scholarships left. If Zachary commits that leaves one. Do we have any idea who could fill that last one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A LOT of talented incoming freshmen are going to be passed over for transfers so I’m expecting an influx of talented JUCO players the next two recruiting classes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSport Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Jaylen Forbes from Alabama has entered the portal. 6-2...190 SG. Avg 2.7 ppg and FG 32%. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGBull Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I would take a shot on him, not great numbers but he was only a freshman so the potential is still there. He would be the highest rated recruit to ever play for UB I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MuchMany Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Of course we'd be interested in a player of his recruiting pedigree... but is there any reason he's being discussed on a UB board? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DooleyBull06 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 For someone who at this point there’s no speculation that we are after him, I’ll just say this...he averaged 10 minutes a game last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocCas86 Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 My take is this...as someone pointed out..he is a freshman...numbers not dissimilar to Jenathan..so I don't write him off for that..However..I wonder if he is willing to put in the work. Based on my familiarity with Oats, if player was willing to do the work to get where he needs to, Oats would be supporting him and he would stay put.

MuchMany Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Hate to be the thread police, but doesn't this belong in the 2020 recruiting speculation thread? Every player with his own thread has been officially connected to us in some way. Just a thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got some playing time. And Oats didn’t give Williams and Segu more than 10 minutes a game as freshman. So that was on par. He also wasn't recruited by Oats. He was an Avery Johnson recruit. And last season for Bama there were other players who that offense ran through. A few of them will get drafted. And so far in recruiting this off season Oats is bringing in higher touted players. So maybe he just realizes he can play more elsewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocCas86 Posted April 17, 2020 Author Share Posted April 17, 2020 I looked at Bama fan board and there were some expectation that Jaylen had potential to contribute. Also found this article explaining roster situation pointing to a numbers issue contributing to Jaylen's decision to transfer. https://247sports.com/college/alabama/Article/Breaking-down-Alabama-basketball-roster-amid-recruiting-frenzy-145925456/ Food for thought..

Good article. Kinda implies Oats went to certain players (Forbes) and was like you gotta transfer. You’re facing a diminishing role and we have better players coming in. Kinda messed up. No loyalty to players but this is the bed the NCAA has made with recruiting and free agency, oh I mean transferring. Also sounds like Oats is still adjusting to the constant roster turnover of power conference basketball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
