cole256 2,260 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 3 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 86 Report post Posted October 13 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

Haven't seen any of Sears but Cooper's highlights look impressive The only clip I've watched so far of Cooper there wasn't ANYTHING he was doing that Mark hasn't been doing since he was 12. 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 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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.

You just don't know and I understand that. Mark plays on AAU teams as well and he plays elite competition. 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
