'22 SC SF Julian Phillips (Tennessee commit)

I was thinking someone said we only have one scholarship for next year and BJ Edwards already has it. If we start pursing him, does that mean we are assuming KC leaves or we have to free up a scholarship somewhere else?

Technically, we don't have room for Edwards, even, if everyone were to return.

rSR Victor Bailey (Covid add. year)
rSR Uros Plavsic
SR Josiah-Jordan James
SR Santiago Vescovi
SR Olivier Nkamhoua
rSO Justin Powell
SO Kennedy Chandler
SO Zakai Zeigler
SO Brandon Huntley-Hatfield
SO Jahmai Mashack
SO Jonas Aidoo
SO Quentin Diboundje
rFR Handje Tamba

Someone has to move on and the obvious option is Chandler. Victor Bailey may decide to move on, or perhaps spend his final year, elsewhere.

I think the general consensus is that Bailey will move on.
 
they will make room for phillips, easily. would be one of the most talented players on our roster from the jump.

Yes, I did find it curious that he chose not to participate in senior day activities, though. I'd have thought maybe he'd want that recognition if he's already made the decision to move on. Not any sort of definitive proof of much, but interesting, nonetheless.

I think you might be onto something there. The reason he did not take part is that he is indeed moving on and wanted his moment at the new school he will be transferring to. Whatever school that is. He is well received amongst his peers and no hard feelings at all towards Barnes or the University which is the way it should be.

The NCAA probably needs to change the 13 scholarships plus several redshirts rule. When $350k can be raised in just one day for ZZ, tuition and other expenses can easily be raised to take players off of scholarships. Bailey could return as a redshirt and his tuition could be paid with the N-I-L fund.

I would think BHH and Powell would be your most likely transfers out if we need to make room.

Why would BHH leave?

That’d be the dumbest thing ever.

If anything, Powell should move on. He’s been providing nothing on the offensive nor defensive end.

When this happens let me know, there’s other restrictions to non-scholarship players that will keep most from wanting to do this.
