Alex Oriakhi to transfer...

[bleedingTNorange]

Is going to transfer and is seeking a waiver to allow him to play immediately.

I don't see Tennessee getting themselves involved, but maybe if Kenny isn't returning then they will. I assume he wants to go somewhere and play major minutes though.

Worth keeping an eye on.

Would be a huge get. Don't think he'd consider UT even if we were interested

No -- it opens up a spot for a better freshman for Martin to recruit -- would say by by to Hall

With Maymon and Stokes starting, and a much improved Yemi coming off the bench, I don't see him going someplace to be a role player.

No Oriakhi would be here this year only.

Most likely yemi would redshirt.

It'd be ideal, thats 3 monsters in the post.

I dont see it happening, but itd be lovely if it did.

I don't see him redshirting regardless of who CCM brings in. Where would the depth be? Miller? Freshmen with less college experience than Yemi?

How many post do we play?

3 unless there's major foul trouble.

A redshirt would be great for yemi IMO.

If those were the only three posts that played next year, the following year would be ROUGH. Maymon/Oriakhi graduating and Stokes leaving early for the Association.

I'm sure if CCM thought he could get Oriakhi, he would certainly be glad to have him, but I don't see it happening (doubt he's interested in UT), and I certainly don't see Yemi redshirting even if it did.

Just my :twocents:

 

[bleedingTNorange]

That's why I'd redshirt yemi if he came here. An extra year of eligibility, and I think he'd really progress nicely jmo.

As you said though I highly doubt oriakhi is interested in coming here. Maybe their PG boatright does though!!!

 

[VolThis]

I'd want to get the heck out of there, too!

 

[DeepSpringsVol]

If he only has 1 year thanks to Ole Miss abusing 1 year left for players. Mike Slive added the rule players must have at leadt 2 years eligibility to join a SEC school. We got John Fields. But now we wouldnt have.

 

[bleedingTNorange]

That's right completely forgot about that rule.

Good call.

No prob broseph. At least maybe we can kill rumor before it swelled to I saw him in Walmart on Walker Springs buying condoms with Skylar McBee while another player buys a super soaker. Ha

Yemi is not going to redshirt. Hell he got in before Miller. He knows his role. Good rebounder, pretty good finisher, descent ft shooter. No need to redshirt him

I know exactly where that is. I got a buddy that lives on Douglas dam rd and I'd take deep springs over there.

There's like a wood shed or barn close to the road too isn't there?
