Traore looked like he never played bball before when he was at AU. What a strange pickup he was.

It's becoming concerning to me that it seems like Auburn just really isn't going to put for the effort to get the best players here (NIL) while the team across the state will do whatever it takes. Oh well I guess...

Well, they're paying for the best players. That's what you have to do now.

If AU is serious about wanting to be a top team you pony up the money to get him. If not well….

I agree and I've said before I don't like how BP creates such a "deep" bench. Players really don't get 'tired' and it never really creates any advantage. Instead you just have a bunch of mediocre players.

Hoke put in a prediction for his guy to commit to AU.

Twitter says he's not visiting.

Good for him. A shame that his talent was wasted at the school he loved. Hopefully those days are gone.

The golf team is good.

You're thinking that Sears would come to AU?

Excellent pick up. Immediate upgrade for us.

Thorne isn't going to be any better than last year IMO. It will be up to our WR's to make plays putting us in a position to hopefully win more games. I think we could peak at 8 wins, but likely 6 or 7. Then I hope we can hang onto the WR's before they transfer out.

Finally some good news

Dude looks like a stud

That's why I don't care anymore. He's essentially saying he likes Auburn's NIL offer for now but if someone else wants to come along and pay him more then he'll listen. Whatever.

If our offensive woes continue this year you can say goodbye to Cam Coleman. Why would he stick around?

I'm sure they will just transfer to Arky.

Agree, this is absolutely absurd.

I believe that the people on these boards are the 1%ers, who actively want AU to excel in sports above and beyond mediocrity. However the vast majority of AU alumni and fans don't really care at all and are perfectly happy where we are and probably still want Gus Malzahn back as head coach. Just my opinion

This is just me spit balling here, but if I was a recruit where I chose to play would be something like: 80% how much are you going to pay me 20% "family environment" and "relationship"

So you're saying he's going to Miami?

I think the whole problem with the NIL thing is the transfer portal being open all the time as well. They have their cake and they can eat it too. Even the professional leagues aren't like this. It will take time to figure it out. As always decisions are made irrationally and without foresight based on emotion. And this is what we end up with.

I mean yeah, I guess it works when you're hitting your 3's.

You all deserve it. Easiest path to the final four ever.

UCOnn is like the AU team with Jabari and Kessler except they have excellent guard play.
