cole256 3,677 Report post Posted August 27, 2017 I don't know what exactly to do, I know he will be a top 3 in state player as he get older and I know he was recently in Auburn visiting with the team and I saw Austin Wiley taking selfies with his parents.....all I'm saying is clearly he's on Coach's radar and that's good....very good 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I want to say they may have been his first division 1 offer as well but I'm not totally sure about that. What I can tell you though is every time I see his dad at church we are talking AUBURN FOOTBALL. His family loves Auburn. And I remember around a year ago his parents and Wiley's parents seemed to hit it off. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gene Loblaw 229 Report post Posted October 13, 2018 I feel like I follow the AU hoops recruiting about as well as I can, and I've never heard of this young man. I think Bruce and Steven have their hearts set on young Sharife Cooper for that 2020 pg spot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark looks like he's probably stronger and Cooper could be quicker. But Mark's highlights is when he was very young. Mark is doing all kinds of dunks now and maybe Cooper is the same? They both are being recruited by auburn and clemson.

Like I said though we'll see I imagine the level of competition that Cooper and Mark Sears have played against is different. Not doubting that Sears has tried to play with the best, but Cooper's AAU and HS team both travel all over the country and play the best of the best. And Cooper still shines despite being only a sophomore. Maybe that's the only thing holding Sears back. I don't know. But Cooper has undoubtedly proved that he can ball against elite players. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You just haven't heard of him. There isn't anything holding Mark back. He's been winning awards and and State championship since he was in 8 th grade. Its not like Mark is sitting the bench for his high school team. He won't be anything less than a 4 star Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cole256 3,677 Report post Posted October 21, 2018 Clemson pulled all the stops last week and had him up there. You'd think he was a senior coming out this year the way they are recruiting him. He's an Auburn legacy though....I'm interested to see how our recruiting play out these next few years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gene Loblaw 229 Report post Posted October 21, 2018 I don’t doubt that the young man is a decent player. I do doubt that he’s a priority recruit for AU and even other big programs.

You can think whatever you want. You're the new guy not me. I don't have to lie about anything, I'm posting what I know. I'm not posting recruiting stuff to convince. You just go ahead and follow your websites. And he's a different kind of guy, he's been told by many of us not to post your every move, and he listens. But that video I posted.....that's a Nike camp. He plays for the best aau team in the state, just like Devin Booker did. He was second team all state in the largest classification of the state in 10th grade. If I say Clemson really wants him then that's what it is. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cole256 3,677 Report post Posted October 21, 2018 But this isn't a team camp and not everyone is able to attend a practice and guys from a team don't just show anybody love. And if he showed up at Auburn it'd be the same. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You weirdo Maybe you should look at the dates of his Twitter you clown and you'd see he hasn't posted on his Twitter since summer besides retweets. But who even asked your input? Literally your first post in this thread was you boasting how you follow recruiting and if you don't know it can't be true....now you don't follow sites.... You said out of your mouth you haven't watched him or know him yet you run your mouth about his game, competition, and something holding him back. It's ok if you don't know to just shut the hell up. That's your last insult though....just don't say anything to me I'll be fine I don't need your bogus posts about basketball. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
