The Kansas Transfer Portal drama continues as Bryson Tiller has now joined Flory Bidunga in narrowing his school choices down to four. Kansas fans didn't love the four schools Bidunga picked, and they really aren't going to like the choices Tiller has come down to.
The former big man and hopeful Bidunga replacement has narrowed his choices down to Michigan, Arizona, Miami, and Missouri, as reported by Jeff Goodman and the Field of 68. Tiller could team up again with Bidunga if both were to pick Michigan, but it seems like maybe Tiller wants to get out of the shadow of the big man.

Talented and skilled freshman averaged 7.9 points, 6.1 boards and 1.3 blocks this past season.
The worst choice of the four would certainly be Missouri, as the Jayhawks and Tigers are heated rivals, and Kansas fans would have to see Tiller help Mizzou succeed. Head coach Bill Self certainly doesn't want to have to potentially play Tiller twice in a season, which could be a possibility if he were to join Tommy Lloyd in Arizona.
The best choice of the four for Kansas fans would be Miami, as Kansas doesn't have too much bad blood against the Hurricanes, but still, seeing Tiller in another uniform doesn't sit well.
Seeing Tiller leave for another program certainly isn't easy, especially with the mass exodus of players after Self announced his return to Kansas. It felt like Tiller could have really stepped into a big role in Lawrence, especially with Bidunga and Paul Mbiya entering the NBA/transfer portal.
While at times, Tiller struggled this season, averaging just 7.9 points per game, he was also active on the boards with 6.1 rebounds per game and 1.3 blocks. Whoever does land Tiller out of the portal is going to get a very moldable player, as Tiller is just a redshirt freshman.
It would have been nice for Tiller to return to Kansas out of the portal, but let's just hope the Jayhawks don't have to play against him too much in the coming seasons.
