Looks like Butts has landed at New Mexico Junior College.

Makes me think one of two things. Since he had already transferred once maybe no one thought he could be eligible to play immediately next year so he went to the JUCO level to play a season then try to go back to D-1. He could still have 4 years to play since he only played in 6 games at Miss St. due to injury and last year here was his free Covid year. The other thing is it could have been an academic issue that required him to go to the JUCO level, purely speculative on my part.
It also looks like they have updated the roster on the website for the 21-22 season. It includes all of the new transfers except for Jones. One thing that stuck out is Dou Gueye is on the roster listed as “fifth year”, same as Russell. I haven’t heard anything official on Dou returning. Maybe that is still in flux and he is just listed there for the time being.
Butts has gone from the Sec to the Sun Belt to juco. Seems he was over rated in high school and is struggling to play quality basketball in a mans game. He has some talent but seems to be pressing. Putting on 10 or 15 # of muscle would be a big help.
Both Russell & Dou are officially returning for their “5th year”.
