Total we lose 2. Last year we forfeited one and I believe we have forfeited one this year also. Which should mean we can have all of our scholarships available for next year. That is the best of my memory but I am getting older so won't swear to it. Edited August 16, 2022 by AuburnNTexas 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we suddenly can't recruit because we're just that poor, well then why even bother having an athletics program (or at least, being in the SEC)? 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just signed a class with 2 top 100 recruits and probably the best big man transfer available. And we just had a top 50 recruit commit to us and he is a PG. There is zero reason to be concerned with bball recruiting. So WTH are you going on about? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mustache eagle 2,397 Posted August 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 17, 2022 Not to mention we just had a week long commercial for AU basketball on sec/espn. Plus the even more important team chemistry building and mentoring young men. our program is in historically its best place with nothing but improvement in the future. And a recent long term contract for the guy who’s made it happen plus the years long black cloud of ncaa is gone. Nba draft picks, championships, exposure, etc… Anything negative at this point is nitpicking 7 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it seems like our athletics department outside of football is doing damn good right now, but if we were to suppose they are correct, then that would change before too much longer. That, or football being the only sport that's struggling is a hopeful indicator that the problem is temporary.

Football has nothing to do with basketball NIL totally different with supporters, in most cases, as well as coaches. I done explaining it to you but please please don't start this negative stuff in basketball. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardin Drake 1,822 Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Bruce was in a tough spot with Phillips. He's a talent, and we wanted him, but you have an established guy at his spot who has been mentioned as a potential NBA draft choice. Landing Phillips at the price he wanted was going to be disruptive to team unity in multiple ways. The new world of NIL is complicated.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football is a totally different issue w NIL but u seem to put basketball in the same boat. It’s not. Pearl can get what he needs from NIL BUT he chose not to on one big time recruit. now just write on your iPad: Auburn basketball is in the greatest shape in years under Pearl and I am a bad Auburn fan for doubting him 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
