Since Feb. 19, when Nick Jacobs was placed on a “leave of absence” from the University of Alabama basketball team, it’s been difficult to feel optimistic about his future in Tuscaloosa.
First, the very words “leave of absence” sound ominous. Second Anthony Grant’s doghouse has never seemed particularly easy to exit. There was some hope, though, as Jacobs continued to be seen around the program — attending late-season games as a spectator, going through workouts.
I get part of Cecil's argument....particularly the part where he talks about having able bodies as far as depth for big men is concerned....however, I just don't think keeping nick around was gonna be good....yeah it's another big body player in the rotation but when you're not playing with effort or consistency then what good are u other than being a liability on the floor....I honestly think our front court will be much better this year with the emergence of Shannon Hale and Jimmie getting better and I think Mike Kessens will surprise most people with his play
Could Jacobs even dunk?I'm starting to think Coach has a need to remove anyone on the team that can dunk a basketball......
