As a program, have we ever given a scholarship to a player less equipped to contribute?
As a freshman Kemp was redshirt, not for medical reasons but simply because he was deemed not fit to be able to contribute to our least talented team since the 1960's who by years end its frontcourt consisted of Kevin Puryear, Russell Woods, and a freshman playing through injury Reed Nikko. He then transfered to a JUCO (so MU could take the full APR hit despite zero on the court contributions from him) in Salt Lake were last season he avged 4.6 ppg and 2.5 rebounds in 10 mpg over a 31 game JUCO season.
Dominique Bull is probably the frontrunner for consideration. He avged 0.1 ppg and 0.3 rebounds in 1.6 mpg as a freshman in 2012-13, then transferred but never played at the college level again anywhere. He actually missed his lone field goal attempt meaning he never scored from the field during his college career.
John Underwood played parts of two season at MU (so he was on scholarship for multiple years) in which he combined to avg 0.8 ppg and 0.8 rebounds in 3.4 mpg. As a guy who literally only shot when within 2 inches of the basket, he notably shot 12.5% from the field as a freshman. He then transferred to Cal State Fullerton and was granted a hardship exemption making him immediately eligible, where he avged 1.1 ppg and 1.3 rebounds as a junior in 6.9 mpg before quitting the team 23 games into the season and never playing again.
Martavian Payne came as part of a package deal to land Russell Woods (although at the time Payne was the more pursued and viewed as the more valuable part of the package) from JUCO, before quitting the team following the exhibition season to focus on academics and then transferred as semester to an NAIA school. He avged 26.4 ppg as a senior at the NAIA level.
James Douglas was part of Quin Snyder's final class, coming to MU from the JUCO ranks and avging 0.9 ppg and 1.2 rebounds in his lone season at MU. He transferred during the coaching staff change and never resurfaced.
Matt Rowan was a freshman member of Norm Stewart's final class (Rich Daly called him the least talented player MU ever signed), and avged 0.9 ppg and 1.4 rebounds in 4.9 mpg before transferring and down a level.
Those would probably be the guys since the turn of the century for consideration.
