Former Alabama G Diante Wood announces transfer destination
When coach Avery Johnson was fired by Alabama this offseason, it led to a number of Crimson Tide players entering the NCAA transfer portal.
One of those players was Diante Wood, who was a 3-star guard in the 2018 class and redshirted during the past Alabama season.
Now, it appears Wood has chosen a new school. Per a post on his Twitter account, he’ll head to Jacksonville to play for the Dolphins:

Coming out of high school, Wood was the No. 49 shooting guard in the class of 2018 and the No. 4 overall recruit from the state of Alabama, per the 247Sports composite.
Jacksonville plays in the Atlantic Sun Conference and hasn’t made the NCAA Tournament since 1986.
