Kevin Obanor has entered the portal….star for Oral Roberts during the tourney. Avg 18 and 9 and shot over 40% from 3. Believe he is 6’8”…now that would be a nice get!

Curious that it took as long as it did. I know a couple of people around that program and nobody thought at any point that he was coming back.

Not really good enough to get full starter minutes at Nebraska, but hey... why not!

Nebraska's Dalano Banton is keeping his name in the NBA Draft, he told ESPN. 6'9 point guard who led Nebraska in assists, rebounds and blocks. Had a good showing at the G League Elite Camp in Chicago and in a subsequent Pro Day in front of quite a few NBA scouts.

With Morsell leaving too, a pretty big hit for Maryland:

Maryland men’s basketball guard Aaron Wiggins is keeping his name in the NBA draft and will forgo his remaining eligibility, he announced Monday. As a junior, Wiggins was the Terps’ second-leading scorer, averaging 14.5 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists.

The NBA draft process (and actually the whole league) is stupid. There I said it. Sure, this might just be an instance of a naïve and/or dumb kid, but the entire draft process is ridiculous. I am a fairly keen B1G basketball observer but I only vaguely remember this guy, but a "good showing" at a camp now means he's potential NBA material? Of course you cast a wide net for talent, but sheesh, the NBA is pitiful.

Disagree.

With him they would have been much improved. Without him they will still be much improved.

They will still probably finish between 11-13th

He's not going to get drafted and I'm willing to bet that is what NBA scouts are telling him.  What he likely played himself into was a G league spot and he probably views that as a better chance of getting to the NBA than through Nebraska.  Not sure how that's a stupid process.

I guess I'm not seeing it.  Teddy Allen was dismissed with five games left in the season and is now at New Mexico State.  He lead Nebraska with 16.5 points per game.  He and Banton accounted for around 40% of their scoring, 30% of their rebounding, and 30% of their assists.  The transfer portal only brought in to them two guys who averaged 2 and 3 points per game at DePaul and Xavier.
