is in the portal. I know he left us to go back to his home state, but I would take him in a second if he wanted to come back....

Do you know the reason why he left in the middle of the season? Was he homesick? He didn't play many games this season, nor log a lot of minutes. Not sure why we would want him back. Doesn't seem very reliable.

I have always heard it had to do with NIL.

KD Johnson is in too. (no, I wouldn't want him back under any circumstances)

Kye'Ron is a tricky one. I loved how he played, and transferring is common these days...but quitting on the team in the middle of the season left a really bad taste in my mouth. I have to believe there was more to that story, but we don't get enough serious reporting on Georgia basketball to really know...

That's perhaps a complicated question. I understood that he did express homesickness, but I also heard that his stepdad was shopping him around for a better NIL deal.

KD - hell no

Honestly, I think Lindsey was taken advantage of by his stepfather, but ultimately, it was his decision to leave - a decision I'm sure he came to regret. I certainly didn't like what he did, but he was/is just a kid who may have gotten manipulated. I would risk taking him back if he was contrite, admitted he was wrong and wanted to come back. But this is all premature speculation, of course.
