I think he is trying to portal his way to Kentucky with Mo but I doubt they take him. He is not a take for us.

Looking over evanmiya, JDF was pretty horrible (0.26 BPR). After Josh, Ballard was our best player in this metric at 3.26 BPR.

Khani Rooths has entered the portal. He has been heavily rumored to be a guy we would pick up if he entered.

From what has been hinted at, we are still waiting to see what the decisions are for Tee Bartlett and Amier Ali. Everyone else is expected back as of now.

IDK. Guess I didn't pay attention to 6 seniors, so with JDF and Warren, we have 5 spots after HS signees.

Probably 6-7 other players on the roster

Yea we have plenty of spots. Just have to correctly use our funds and evaluate a hell of a lot better this cycle.

We tried to make Jones a Melendez/Kugel guy and that fell on its face. We should never miss that bad ever again.

Jones was never going to be Melendez or especially Kugel. He was just not offensively talented enough. Jones is more of a glue guy, defender, athlete. I respect him for his heart and toughness but he played entirely too many minutes for us.
