It's possible, but all along it seemed Tennessee was planning on taking and landing them both. Did some SLU booster step up with some money? Did Key cost UT more money than they initially thought and it decreased Collins' offer? Maybe we were wrong the whole time and it was Key OR Collins not Key AND Collins for UT. I'd like to know out of curiosity, but we'll likely never know for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better, yes, probably, but different. Key is not a pass first guard. He's a scorer who is good for a few assists a game. From a position stand point, it really didn't seem like they were blocking each other. Both players rely on a lot of touches though. I don't think they'd have to sacrifice minutes being on the same team, but one or both would get less touches most likely. I would guess Tennessee is probably looking at their other options for a pass first guard right now to replace what they thought they had in Collins. However, I was wrong yesterday about this situation. Totally could be wrong on this as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gabriel Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 This whole saga just makes me appreciate Yuri even more. Can’t wait for next year. Hope everyone is able to forgive Yuri for weighing his options? Shouldn’t be a single billikens fan with any hatred in their heart for the kid.

Also, don’t think we need a starter to be dancing. Perkins returning, Pickett transferring over, and Parker from Juco, in addition to what we had will be good enough. thetorch likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, Key is not seen as a backup PG...he's a 2 Guard. Zakai Ziegler played a lot of PG when Kennedy Chandler was getting a rest. They recruited a 4 Star PG BJ Edwards who will get the backup PG minutes if they don't recruit someone else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
