Travon Landry leaving Alabama...

Will be transferring to the national powerhouse Huntington Prep in West Virginia.

Will be joining UT targets Xavier Rathan-Mayes and Moses Kingsley there, along with top 2014 prospect Andrew Wiggins.

He will be playing VERY good competition, and will be playing with basically a college starting 5. Will be interesting to see how he performs, he really seems to be a limited offensive PG, but a great passer, leader and defender "true PG".

If we can surround him with guys like hubbs then we wont need his scoring. Will definitely be interesting to see how he does at Huntington Prep this year.

Who is this Hubbs? I've seen him mentioned, but personally I can't keep up with bball and football recruiting. If you are able to post links that would be great.

Andrew Wiggins, Xavier Rathan-Mayes, Dominic Woodson, Moses Kingsley, and now Travon Landry. I wonder how that team would do in the SEC.

That team is absolutely stacked, I'm very interested to see how Landry does. He prefers to facilitate and hell have his opportunity to do that all season playing with those guys.

Probably will be good from the "facilitate" standpoint, but I was looking forward to seeing if Landry could step up and carry the load for Bob Jones this year. They lost two all-state players offer the Alabama runner up and the probably needed Landry to "be the man". Now he goes back to a support role.

Of course, now he's in position to recruit one of the four top 100 players on the Huntington roster.

BTO - you probably keep up with this stuff as much as anyone. Does the Clearinghouse still ding you for multiple transfers? This would be Landry's fourth school in four years.

It definitely makes things a bit more difficult, with that said id be shocked if Landry had trouble getting into school.

It may help that the other schools aren't NCAA. I could also be completely wrong

What do you mean aren't NCAA?

What he's saying is lots of times it's had to get cleared when you played for multiple High schools. Your transcript becomes a mess and lots of times its a red flag to the clearing house.

This will be landrys 4th high school in 4 years so he's wondering if the NCAA clearing house will give him trouble when enrolling into college.
