1. This is a loss for the program. Losing a guy who’s going into his senior year hurts from a leadership standpoint. We may get a better player from the portal but that doesn’t mean it’s not a loss.
2. Hall’s closest friends are Fouss, Knell, and Trey - all three are out of eligibility and gone.
3. Hall struggled with his backup roll. He had a few good games during the season and was valuable in several games where Demin struggled with the high on-ball pressure.
4. He played poorly in the tournament.
5. Hall was unhappy with his NIL situation after last season. He was hitting the portal regardless of the Pope situation. He ended up getting paid, and that amount turned out to not align with his production this year.
