Alabama’s junior point guard Jahvon Quinerly appears ready to leave the college ranks following his knee injury in the 2022 NCAA Tournament loss against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
He took to Instagram to announce his departure from the program.
“Never in a million years would I have thought this how my last college game was gonna play out,” Quinerly wrote in an Instagram post. “3 mins in doesn’t even feel real. 10 toes always though. My story [is] not over. Thank you for all the well wishes and prayers, the rest is in God’s hands.”

Quinerly will finish his college career at Alabama with a career average of 10.5 points per game, 2.9 assists per game and 2.1 rebounds per game.
While his and the entire team’s, 2021-22 season was cut short following the 78-64 loss to Notre Dame, it was likely especially painful for Quinerly to have suffered such an injury just three minutes into the game.
He averaged 13.8 points per game during his final season, including three rebounds and 4.1 assists per contest.
The third-year guard was injured as he was fouled driving to the basket inside San Diego’s Viejas Arena. He remained on the court for a few minutes before being helped to the Crimson Tide’s locker room. The television broadcast later showed him in the tunnel with crutches and a brace over his left leg.
