Running 2022-23 NCAA Basketball Thread

[Neutral Corner]

UAB already had Jordan "Jelly" Walker, 20 ppg/40% 3pt last season. Andy Kennedy added Eric Gaines, G from LSU via the portal. Going to be a helluva back court.

Gaines here.

I have no idea why, but Bates is still not included on the roster.

Still not there. Is he eligible for the G League or whatever it's called? What about Overtime Elite. With the amount of unmitigated fawning attention that thing has gotten, you'd think it was every decent player's preferred option.

Just hours after EMU's football team beats a Pac-12 school, which fired its coach in response (Arizona State's Herm Edwards), this ... Ouch. We'll see if Bates gets the boot.

His lawyer says Bates was borrowing the car in which the guns were found. Says the guns belong to the owner of the car.
Still a bad look. And how long will it take for this one to resolve?

Bates has been suspended from all team activities: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/s...it-emoni-bates-faces-gun-charges/10426971002/

Gotta do that.
I fear this guy is the next Korleone Young.
Still wondering if Overtime Elite, which has presumably lost some of its shine in the NIL era, will take him.
