Alabama is the team everyone will want to lose.
In the wake of the aforementioned last week, questions have arisen about Miller’s future, and how this could impact his draft status. He was considered a consensus top-five pick before, and not much has changed, one scout, speaking anonymously, told The Post.
“A lot of people will do their research on him, grill him, etc., but he had a really good reputation coming into this,” the scout said. “[Saturday] was just immaturity and being tone-deaf. The situation is a bad look.” Ultimately, unless something else comes out that is more damning of his involvement, he still is expected to be taken in the top five, or even in the top three. Performing so well over the last week under intense scrutiny can only help him. Blind résumé: NET ranking of 47, 1-8 record in Quad 1 games, three Quad two losses. Is this an NCAA Tournament team, or even one that belongs close to the bubble? Of course not.
