Not a surprise at all. It was not a good fit for him, he never looked comfortable. Best of luck to Mario!

I think we might be better off. Sounds stupid but he wanted to play the 3 and we have plenty of minutes w guys who can play the 1-3. Good players.
Ado will start
Basically today in college basketball you need one of two things to win and getting both is proving damn near impossible. (1) Elite talent (2) Hard nosed, tough minded players. If you are truly elite like KY, Duke, Kansas you can get away with pure talent. Otherwise you need guys who just play hard and are talented enough.
MSU basketball has had neither. We have good athletes that are soft are some hard nosed guys that aren't very talented.
As for Kegler he's a above average talented guy that is too slow to play the 3 and has no desire to play the 4. Be interested to see where he lands and how it plays out.
Speaking of guys wanting to play certain positions which leads to transfer... is Malik expected to play point at Kansas this year?
Why do you cling to this easily disproven meme?

(Note: We actually finished 88th this year. This image was made before all of the postseason tournaments finished.)
Howland significantly improved Ray's players in his first year, and then with an entirely new starting 5 only regressed a little. There's no reason to think we won't be significantly better in year 3.
GOOD. I'm glad Kegler is gone. Never saw the fire or intensity needed to compete. He's a diva and plays half ass. Let him be someone else's problem
Meh, I hate losing a large body, but I lost count of the times someone mentioned they "hoped" Kegler would figure it out soon last year....but he never did. He was a rally killer, turnover creator, and was the only guy that didn't show improvement at any point. He's a small forward that thought he was a shooting guard.
Again, you always hate to lose a big talented guy...but if I had to pick a guy to lose, Kegler would probably be it. We'll be more athletic and probably have a better locker room because if it. Good luck, Mario.
I think it's safe to say recruiting a blue chip basketball player from Jackson, MS, usually equates to an enormous waste of time, resources, and effort. I'd either look for sleepers or completely leave that town alone.
Kegler isn't a big loss. A tweener with no hope for the NBA. We need the scholarship for the 2018 class and just got it.
