I wonder if Traore has the size to play the five, allowing Jaylin to play the four. We will take a step back with rim protection regardless assuming Kessler is gone. 

For some reason I feel like Kessler will be back next season.

I would think so. 6’10 and athletic, he could go 4 or 5 I’d imagine.

Is Traore projected to be a one and done?

Dontaie Allen from Kentucky just entered portal. Solid player. 

[TD1 227]

Cambridge entered the portal

He gave it everything he has every game. I will miss his momentum grabbing dunks! Loved his rebounding. Good luck to the man. 

[NoALtiger 3,860]

Good move by him and I wish him the best of success.

@AUDevilSeen some people say 1 & others 2.

So realistically we could have 6 scholarships to give? Cook, Cambridge, Jabari, Moore, Stretch, and Kessler all possibly leaving.

Only 2 commits (1 of which will count to football) so far and Traore who is pretty much a lock at this point. Would open the door for Philips possibly, and 3 transfers/reclassifications. Or hopefully Kessler stays and improves his draft stock with another year in the weight room and work on his offensive game.

It's nowhere near a slam dunk Flan stays so it could be as many as 7.

Since Tre likely will not play football year 1 his scholly will have to count against our basketball limit of 12 for next season. He counts to only football when & if he starts playing football at AU.

I'm not sure his draft stock can improve much from where it is now.

this logic worked solidly with KD. Wouldn’t be mad at it 

[AU Is Gold 410]

Any chance Auburn goes after Pinson? I'm guessing not with the guards we have and with Westry and Donaldson coming in and the potential at some of the other bigger names that have recently become available. I enjoy watching Pinson drive to the basket. His three point shooting isn't the best though.

Sign him up just for his free throw shooting alone

Only got to the line 62 times last hear. Hit 61, but that’s just over 2 points a game.

There's a chance but if we add a Guard he's not the one we need. We need a good deep shooter.

I'm not to sure about the rules, but could he transfer to a 2nd SEC school without having to sit out a year?

No. He would have it sit. I would not think he would transfer because of that.

@thewhiz7@TD1Incorrect. He's a Grad Transfer now & as such he can transfer & play immediately.
