I said we had found our starting 2 and it was ā€œglorious.ā€ It was a reference I was making to Abram. It was a bad reference as no one understood the biblical/musical meaning behind it. I wasnā€™t trying to inflate it, so Iā€™m sorry if it came across that way.

Iā€™m very sorry, Todd. Weā€™re letting you go. Some adjectives are too painful to take. Please turn in your insider badge and your Bible on your way out.

Well in fairness your initial quote on Massamba was that we had our 2, it wasnā€™t until days later when Abram info came about he then became our starting 2, but the initial take on Massamba was that was our 2. No issues or problems with it, was just sharing my personal belief that I have some skepticism this player is walking into a starting job, which is what 3rd best add would be, but I will gladly be wrong about it.

Been looking at mostly non seniors. I donā€™t think anyone fits the ā€œ3rd best playerā€ description unless itā€™s Claude or Fland, but I donā€™t see those happening, would be nice though.

And Iā€™d say it almost certainly has to be a guard or a wing. Iā€™d rule out any traditional 4ā€™s or centers.

But Iā€™d lean toward guard.

My first guess was going to be someone like George Kimble, 2.6 steals, but very inefficient shooter.

Definitely wouldnā€™t be the 3rd best player on the team either, so can probably scratch him off.

Yea, running through the list, ignoring any of the top guys as theyā€™re in the draft process so they wouldnā€™t be committing. Get to Fland & Claude, Lubin wouldnā€™t make sense, then a bunch of seniors, Faulkner wouldnā€™t make sense, and also now weā€™re low enough I donā€™t think any of these guys are better than Evans, Abram or Carey. So from the portal the only possible names I see would be Fland or Claudeā€¦

From the HS ranks, guys ranked ahead of Evans & Brown still available: #30 Niko Bundalo and #63 Brayden Hawthorne.

Thereā€™s a couple international guys that may fit the bill like Ben Henshall, but heā€™s still going through the draft process as well and at the combine so donā€™t see that being it.

So between the portal and HS ranks the only 4 names I see would be:
Boogie Fland
Desmond Claude
Niko Bundalo
Brayden Hawthorne


Claude is expected to be at Alabama tomorrow for a visit so wouldnā€™t think itā€™s him obviously, so that would leave 3ā€¦

3rd best player had me thinking Claude, who I mentioned last night. Fland would fit that bill as well, but that seems quite doubtful.

Agree that both would fit 3rd best description, Claude arriving in Tuscaloosa for a visit tonight would seemingly eliminate him though.

The first 3 names I thought of were Passmore, Tyson & Givensā€¦no info just some ties that makes sense, but none of those 3 would come close to qualifying as 3rd best imo
