Idk about "waiting for your time" in college though, because if you're trying to make it to the pros for whatever sport you play, you want to show how good you are as soon as possible. So when you spend a whole year not getting playing time, that's less time you have to show scouts how good you are. This is why I don't have any issue with the transfer portal at all tbh.

Bamas Starting 5 IF Primo stays in this years draft will prob be: 1. Quinerly JR 2. Jd Davidson. FR 3. Shackelford JR 4. Noah Gurley GR SR. (6'8 transfer from Furman) 5. Alex Tchiako. RS FR (6'11 stretch center from France) If Primo returns, Gurley will sit, Primo will start there. Burnett will get mins bc Coach Oats offense revolves around spreading the court with 4 guards and 3pt shooting. Anyone who says or thinks nimari wnt play at bama are kiddin themselves. Bama is stacked! May be the best team in my 29 years of living at Bama. Roll Tide!
I mean I dont blame him honestly this happened to me In high school freshman n sophomore yrs all city then we get a new coach n I'm on the bench doesn't make sense
These kids hate when a “old head” keeps it real cause they think every 5star gonna be the next lebron or be the number 1 pick ect. When in reality there’s 5stars at the next level riding the bench & waiting their turn instead of being a diva. Hoop really softened up but it’s all good cause it’s a lot of your fav 5stars gonna be losing out if they don’t change the superstar ego especially when they haven’t proved anything
Burnett, just told you thank you for the story. In a 3 guard starting line up he can be a starter which I know he did not go to Alabama not to start. Definitely JD will and Jelly but Burnett will be as they dont have a shooter like him. Look at BB he did not play well at Kentucky yet he entered the draft. So what he saw broken promises and it impacted him so to say he quit? What about they lied? This is very one sided, you should have asked him what happened before labeling someone a quitter. Seems like you make a living off the misfortune of black athletes. What should we call that especially for a guy who is always quoting scriptures. It is a scripture that says judge not so ye may not be judged. Or, let the first one without sin cast the first stone. Why would it be a long line of coaches wanting a quitter? Also, it was another 4-5 star recruit who left the team as well be Burnett did, so why did not bring his name up? In addition to a pattern of this coach not keeping top tier talent that keeps transferring, but no lets slander a good kid who comes from a home with a mother and father and incredible work ethic to piece of garbage as a person. You really need to leave the personal stuff out and just tell the story bro, I even wondered what happened to him, but saw he went to Bama.
@@KingRa619 that's not the point I'm making, if he shoots free throws at a 90% rate then his jumpshot form is most likely fine. There were other contributing factors to his low %

The transfer portal is better than “working for your spot” because if a player isn’t getting play time where he was offered, that’s already -1 year off of college, lets say he doesn’t improve enough for the college he’s at and gets a 2nd year of college with little play time, his draft stock is gonna plummet
