WOW.  Why would he leave?

I have no idea. Shocked at this decision

Like bruuuuuhhhh!!!! This came out of nowhere to me. Was anybody else hearing about this?

https://247sports.com/Article/Justin-Powell-transfer-Auburn-basketball-162070865/

please include at least a portion of the article and not just a link.

Auburn freshman Justin Powell is transferring out of the program, he tells 247Sports.

“I’m very thankful for my time at Auburn,” Powell told 247Sports. “Thank you to Bruce Pearl, the Auburn staff, my teammates, the trainers, doctors and everyone at Auburn but I felt that this was the best decision for me at this time.”

Powell, a 6-foot-6, 205-pound combo guard, had a standout freshman season through six games with Auburn averaging 11.1 points, 6.1 rebounds and 4.7 assists, shooting 56-percent from beyond the stripe.
The Kentucky native will quickly become one of the hottest transfers to hit the market this season.

He was ranked as the No. 185 overall prospect in the 2020 247Sports Composite Rankings.

Do we still feel good about him? Especially since he's choosing Friday?

There haven't been any articles posted on him yet. There were 31 guys there. It takes time to post articles on all of them. Plus for AU 247 Keith has done an article & had a number of articles on him the past 2 weeks so I imagine he's down the line on article posting order. Also articles usually are written on uncommitted guys before committed guys for events like these.

I feel you. I just know I had seen them mention Pappoe being interviewed. Maybe they're saving that info for premium

Why haven't we heard much about George Pickens? Other than seeing him in a group photo and on the visiting list I wouldn't have known he was in town for big cat.

It would depend on when he graduates and the NCAA clears him. Best case scenario I see is Mercer on the 18th but more likely would be around UK on January 14th.

I thought that coach Pearl said he wasn't enrolling early. Did something change?

JF3 fumbled and there's no contact?  Oh boy...

It was probably on the exchange of the zone read. Not to big of a deal

Looks like they're back in it. I figured that would happen but I'm guessing they have to much ground to make up if he sticks with his spring time table

Tadarian “TD” Moultry said he’s done with interviews until he makes his commitment to his school of choice, which he says will happen some time this spring.

But the one word he answered with to whether or not Alabama is back in the mix for his services should be encouraging for the Crimson Tide.

“Yes!” Moultry said.

If you remember, Moultry, the four-star linebacker from Jackson-Olin High School (Birmingham, Ala.), told SEC Country a few weeks ago that he eliminated Alabama from contention because of his lack of a relationship with the staff.

“I don’t have that bond with my assistant coach, so, there is no need to keep playing with a school’s head,” Moultry said at the time. “I don’t have a bond with the (assistant) coach, so there’s no need for me to be talking to the school.”

He did say that what Alabama has to offer for “life after football” is the main reason why the Crimson Tide is now back in the mix after his visit to Tuscaloosa for Saturday’s A-Day game.

It looked like it was going to be an in-state battle for Moultry’s services, but Georgia, LSU and Ole Miss are in the mix, too.

Of note, Moultry and three-star linebacker Kenney Britt, who is from Oxford, Ala., have said that they are a package deal. Britt, who recently announced a top 10, did not include Alabama on his list and named Georgia his leader. Package deals in recruiting hardly ever come to fruition, though.

At 6-foot-2 and 225 pounds, Moultry is rated the No. 9 inside linebacker in the country and the No. 12 prospect in Alabama.
