MarJon Beauchamp to skip college

I've watched the past few games and I already knew that we would probably lose a few games during this stretch reason being there's no HERBERT JONES! There's guys talking basketball on Secrant and Twitter but I laugh at the fact that majority of all the post people tend to blame John Petty. I think he's been the best player on the floor for Alabama outside of the LSU game. Mason Jones went against John Petty and Petty absolutely shut him down in the second half then yesterday every time Alabama needed something big to happen there was John Petty! The dude is shutting down the opponents best player, he's rebounding, blocking shots, and scoring on limited touches. I'm confused on why the guy gets so much hate and negativity towards him! Him, Javian, Shack and Jaylen Forbes are playing winning basketball! They turn it over occasionally but they are doing the blue collar things. The people who are really the no show's for this team are Kira, Alex, and Galin simply put they got to play winning basketball! Herbert Jones covers a multitude of deficiencies for our defense by himself and that's why we are losing games and he's much better in half court offense then Kira! The season is not over and simply put we got work to do. We need to win a game or two and it's very possible then get Herb back and we still will have the SEC Tournament and I still think Alabama is a top four team and we can beat anybody! Herb is key though! Herb Jones and John Petty are the two best players on this team by a long shot! We need that Dynamic Duo back asap!

I know Memorial has been a house of horrors in recent memory(other than Riley Norris stopping the bleeding last year with the air guitar) but the Tide should handle business if it can bring the energy Wednesday. Vanderbilt looked abysmal Saturday without Aaron Nesmith, but Alabama still has to play focused and bring the energy. A road win-regardless of the opponent- would only help build the momentum and confidence.

Alabama's basketball team really has come along way from the first game! The thing that gets me is the CONFIDENCE these guys have! They haven't folded under pressure and they just continue to fight like their possessed! Alex Reese has been playing really hard! There's two guys on this team that when both of them get going they are some legit players on both ends of the floor and they are John Petty & Herb Jones! They are the best two wing players in the SEC on both ends of the court! Herb Jones is lottery pick material and if he ever keep the same form he uses to shoot free throws and apply that to his set shot form then he will be unstoppable because he can get by anybody plus he passes better than our actual PG! John Petty has just been crazy! He will do anything you ask of him and he's becoming a lockdown defender and a clutch player during crunch time! I'm excited to see how far they go!! #RollTide
