Davion transferring?

Business-Slang-Acronyms-Abbreviations-wtf.gif
 
Guessing he thought he’d come in and take Harper’s job, and when that didn’t happen, he didn’t want to sit behind him for 3 more years.
 
Shitty end to a shitty day. I absolutely hate this.

Not really surprising at all. I gave up being excited for anything AU sports related after the Clemson beat down. I am sticking to it this time. It just sucks the joy out of a happy day. AU is the black hole of happy endings. It’s been the AU way forever (except for the Cam days). Just watch. Next Mize will go on DL and another AU sport will go down the shatter.

I have moved my favorite hobby from AU sports to fly tying and fishing. So far it has not let me down. Not even once. Even my wife says I am so much more relaxed and happy. It’s like I have my life back. I am actually smiling and laughing as I write this. Hopefully you guys will see the light and remove the ball and chain that is boog sports from your most important list. Good luck gentlemen.
 
Clearly wants to be THE MAN somewhere and I can't totally blame him. Probably feels threatened by Samir as well. Still devastating but I wish the kid well. Seemed like a really good kid.

Also why I try to avoid getting excited bout hoops in particular before we see who actually is back when the games start in the fall. Hoops always has weird, illogical defections. I just thought it would be 3 months from now and no DayDay.

He should be starting next year over Harper. This pisses me off. He was underused too much this year honestly. I know Jared is a fan favorite but anyone with any basketball IQ can see Harper’s days as the starter were numbered with this young buck coming up behind him.

I have it on good authority that he was encouraged to leave because Samir is way better than anyone imagined (tifwiw). With Davion leaving, that frees up the rotation a bit better as some believe that Wiley, Danjel, and Heron are all back (not really surprising there except for maybe Staph sticking around).

Wow. Encouraged? Can’t believe that too much but I do believe that Samir is gonna be the truth

I will only believe that if I hear the words come out of BRUCE's mouth. Unless he was banging the wrong chickS, no way that happened.

Not becaused he sucked, just looking at the big picture (not just this upcoming season, but 2,3,4 years ahead), and just looking out for the best interest of the kid as well as the team. At least that’s the way that it was just explained to me.

Yea, that was not going to happen.
 
Well what about Harper? Should he be encouraged to leave too? Long term between Davion and Harper, Davion was the better prospect IMO.

Not to be an ass, I just don’t believe it. I can’t inagine ANYBODY thinking it was because he sucked. I believe in 10 years he will be the best player from this team. And I really don’t think it will be close.

Why would Harper be encouraged to leave? That would really hurt Auburn. Much more than Mitchell leaving.

You just gonna continue to ride on this hot take?

If it’s going to take him 10 years to be the best player from this team, I imagine he’s made the right decision.

Ok I’ll humor myself. Why was Davion going to be a better long-term option than Harper?

I guess my post was poorly worded. How many people on this years team do you think will be playing in 10 years? I only saw one that I had much confidence in.

Based on what’s been posted on other boards, it sounds like the plan is to use Samir as the backup PG and SG, and that may have been told to Davion after the season.

I think I'm confused. Are you referring to Davion or someone else?
 
Davion was on the list of the three players that Rodney thought my transfer for more playing time. He told me a couple weeks ago but didn't want to believe it.

You've had great info here but three looking to transfer makes no sense to me.
