Probably just a wrong place-wrong time kind of thing.

Overanalysis: feels like step one of a two step goodbye.

He should really look at Oscar when making his decision. Coming back isn't going to do him any good. He has hit his peak at the college level. NBA doesn't want old rookies

For guys that won't make it into the NBA, college ball NIL is their maximum earning potential.

Purdue or UK at $1 million sure beats the G League.

Is Purdue offering that much?

I would be very surprised if Edey makes less tha $500k in NIL from Purdue. They are allowed to set it up for him to work for Canadian charities, and they have.

Maybe he gets drafted in the 2nd round. Maybe. But he's not an NBA player. I can't fault Edey for going for it. Probably ends up overseas, where he can earn pretty good money playing professionally. (Assuming he doesn't come back.)

We kicked the tires on this kid at one time.  

2024 four-star point guard Labaron Philon has decommitted from Auburn.  Philon, one of the nation’s leading scorers this past HS season (34.7 PPG), is a top-40 recruit nationally and the No. 1 player in Alabama.

Oats has a type.  As much as I’m a win now guy, and as much I think Oats is a great coach, I’m at least happy we aren’t dealing with this stuff on the regular/at all.

That's what happens when you aren't as good as Brandon Miller.
