Basketball signees - Blazer88 - 05-29-2018 03:22 PM
Any updates on everyone? Don’t we have an extra scholly?
RE: Basketball signees - Auburn_Blazer - 05-29-2018 04:52 PM
I think they're done. There might have been a spot if someone big came along, but I think the coaching staff is happy with what they've got.
RE: Basketball signees - Big Dee - 05-29-2018 05:38 PM
We are done, unless something happens with Boyce. And as of right it's a safe bet he's coming unless he proves otherwise.

I do not think Boyce will be a Blazer. His recent tweet furthers my suspicion.. Need to be looking for someone to fill his spot ASAP
RE: Basketball signees - Memphis Blazer - 05-31-2018 03:47 PM
Wow, I bet the coaches didn't know what to do until that piece of advice was offered.
RE: Basketball signees - blazerjay - 05-31-2018 04:42 PM
If I'm UAB, I'm not releasing him to Memphis with them being an upcoming opponent. He wants to go there, he can pay his own way for a year.
RE: Basketball signees - ATTALLABLAZE - 05-31-2018 04:56 PM
Which may be what is happening. Or “someone” will pay his way. No he should NOT be released.
RE: Basketball signees - Memphis Blazer - 05-31-2018 05:04 PM
If he doesn't want to play here, he should be released. His friends, his mentor are all at Memphis and the city is on fire for basketball. Unlike Birmingham. I really can't blame him for wanting to play white his friends for his mentor. It's just there, he won't be the min guy. Here he will be.
RE: Basketball signees - blazers9911 - 05-31-2018 05:07 PM
We should not release him to Memphis at this point. Anywhere else is fine by me. There is no way tampering wasn’t involved at this point.
RE: Basketball signees - UABslant - 05-31-2018 05:16 PM
Maybe they should get on Twitter and ask him to come play for the team he's already signed with...

So we should be like Phil Martelli?
It never works out from a PR standpoint for the school that blocks the transfer. Let the kid go play with his friends.
RE: Basketball signees - blazers9911 - 05-31-2018 05:18 PM
Yes we should be like him. He had every right to do what he did too.
RE: Basketball signees - Memphis Blazer - 05-31-2018 05:20 PM
It's wrong. I want him to play for UAB if he wants to. If he wants to play for Memphis though, we should release him. We gain absolutely nothing by blocking him.
RE: Basketball signees - UABslant - 05-31-2018 05:27 PM
Wichita State released his buddy Lomax so he could sign with Memphis. I'm all for letting the kid go if he doesn't want to be here. Let him go wherever. But go ahead and do it now so this doesn't drag out.
RE: Basketball signees - Tiger1983 - 05-31-2018 05:36 PM
The Tigers, to my knowledge, do not have any available scholarships for the 2018-19 season.
RE: Basketball signees - Big Dee - 05-31-2018 05:43 PM
Let him go please!!!!!!! Still got decent talent left out there. Go grab a transfer or pg.

You got Hardaways son on scholarship. I'm sure that one would be given up if a player they wanted was available.
RE: Basketball signees - Memphis Blazer - 05-31-2018 05:56 PM
That may be the holdup. UAB is not going to release him unless he has an offer. Memphis is not going to offer him unless he is available,
RE: Basketball signees - MAN4UAB - 05-31-2018 06:27 PM
Let him go if he doesn’t want to be here.
