One of Jalen’s best friends, 5-star point guard Sharife Cooper, is committed to the Tigers. Bruce Pearl has been to see Jalen multiple times during the recruiting period. I really like the Tiger’s chances here because Jalen Green will get to play alongside top point guard, Sharife Cooper. Green would also get to play against top notch talent in the SEC. Final Prediction As we broke down each of the schools recruiting Jalen, I have to say Memphis and Auburn are the front runners. My prediction for Jalen Green right now is Auburn. The Tigers give him the best chance at competing for a National Championship and helping him get to the NBA. Green is planning to make his college decision around March after his basketball season Been a long time since i've seen, read, or heard Auburn is the better chance to compete for a championship or send a player to the NBA. Oh how Bruce has changed our outlook and perception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started reading to see who the other team was that we gave a better chance of that than, and then I realized- to your point- who cares, they're talking about us giving a kid a decent chance at all at those things.

I found that statement weird, not because of the fact it usually doesn’t get attached to AU but because Memphis has started amassing some very good talent as well and would have just as much of a shot as AU to win a national championship.

Especially with many of the all time greats...having problems with those rules Point one: Why waste time on someone who obviously doesn't have the grades to gain entry to Auburn? Our compliance department is strict. Point two: If he has problems with "amateurism" then he needs to be avoided like the plague. AU has enough scrapes with the NCAA without going out and seeking trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GwillMac6 20,526 Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 I think Bruce does it perfectly. He has the perfect mix of signing 3-4 year players while also trying to sign the elite talent's as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least 3 of those guys are some of our best players and none of them (no offense to them) are going anywhere any time soon. With how much youth we have, we can afford to chalk off two guys next season, just need to make sure we're proactive in 2021. THIS is the problem you want to have as an elite program, bc that means you made it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might've been referring to the "rules" of amateurism.

Dual-Threat Rigby 8,574 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 In my humble opinion, I know BP did things differently at different destinations, but I think here, everything starts with the guards and goes from there. Kuminga is a better player but Green is more needed when you look at the roster and at what's lacking. BP can live with underskilled, role players at the forward spots. We're not living long with the 2 guards we currently have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen anything certain? No. But I think he said he wanted to wait after his season back when he first cancelled his original commitment date. So probably march or April. Around there.
