tigermac 11 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Very smooth player. I like that he is coming with Davion...should be some built in chemistry. It's early but still hard to believe we have the #1 class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger 8,818 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) This is awesome! I've seen where's listed as a SF/PF as well as considered as a frontcourt pickup. Is he more of a big man or does he have a perimeter player's skillset? Edited July 25, 2016 by Tiger spelling error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aujeff11 6,243 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) Some of these questions that I'm asking are not very simple. Such as yesterday when I wanted to know what our updated class rank in football would be. I searched but couldn't determine if it was updated or not. I definitely searched for the interviews on Twitter though. Edited July 25, 2016 by aujeff11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now is where Coach Pearl begins to realize that everything he finds annoying about Auburn's compliance department is worth putting up with as the NCAA hounds see Auburn ranked #1 in basketball recruiting and start warming up their scopes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Nice to get the recognition but anyone find it strange that Duke, Kentucky, Arizona, Kansas and the usual powerhouses are not on the list? Seems like many schools are not announcing their commitments yet. Hoping we can hang on to these guys...they should at least give us one of the top 2 or 3 classes in the SEC when the dust settles.

No cuz a lot of those teams get theirs late because they are a NBA Draft revolving door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
