    The great “What if?”

    in AU Basketball Forum

    Posted · Edited by HAPvsOA

    I still don't know if Pearl didn't know how to get the most out of Flan as a SG/SF with so many options on the team? if Flan wasn't back to being fully healthy? Or if Flan didn't want to be a role player? But a fresh start was probably the best thing for him.  

    I really liked Flan, will always root for him, and really hope he can make it to the NBA. I was shocked that he improved so much from his recruit rank through his Freshman and Soph years to the point where he was going in the 2nd round of some mock drafts pre-injury. He was playing like an Okoro-lite after Okoro left.

    Regardless, I think our team is better than Ole Miss and that we'll prove it on the court.

    why does auburn always seem to have a divided coaching staff?

    There were coaching conflicts in Tuberville and Bowden’s stints as well and probably the others surrounding those. I don’t think it’s uncommon it’s just glaring when combined with poor results on the field. 

    Exactly. I think the proper question worded slightly differently is  When has Auburn not had a divided coaching staff?

    Thoughts thus far on the team

    I love this team. They remembered last year and kept landing haymakers until the end against Arkansas. Then what a scrappy win against T A&M. A younger team would probably have lost that one, but our defense, bench and free throw shooting were very good down the stretch. Kenpom and Bilas had us top 10 even before the A&M win.

    I know there will be ups and downs with this team, but after the App State loss, they've been on a mission. I'm hoping for a top 3 SEC finish and a loss in one of the last 2 SEC games to get them laser focused for tourney play.

    Favour Edwin was a nice surprise to wake up to this morning.

    Word is Coen sent in his NLI but won’t announce until Friday. It’s my understanding from talking with friends we didn’t receive his NLI. Auburn simply didn’t view Coen as highly as he views himself apparently.

     Ryan Williams and Dimitry Nicolas are both February signings. For me this means I’m going to turn my attention towards the 2024 Portal Thread.

    Thanks for everyone joining this thread and celebrating our newest Tigers. We got some good ones and only really missed out on a handful that we wanted. Some money was saved that will be shifted to portal spending.

    I expect to see the following:

    1 QB to replace Robby

    1 RB SHOULD Jarquez decide to enter the NFL Draft

    1 more WR (outside target)

    2-3 OL

    1 TE

    1-2 interior DL

    1-3 DBs depending on who is available 

    Hopefully there will be some more OL transfers getting into the portal because the pickings are getting slim atm. 

    In terms of DB, any update on AJ Harris? It seemed like things were trending in our favor....but now crickets.

    Here is a listing looks like we had some good ones in 2001, 2010-2011 - https://247sports.com/college/auburn/contentgallery/ranking-auburn-tigers-football-recruiting-classes-in-this-century-50981737/#467097

    2010 is on another level given Cam Newton was in that class.

    Also, I don't remember 2017 having 3 247 5-stars (only 1 in the composite); TD and Stidham must have been given a boost on 247 at the very end.

    Florida's class has imploded. Hopefully Amaris Williams sees Auburn is the path forward. 

    4 of their top 5 commits that haven't signed are on the fence with 3 predicted elsewhere. There was a footnote that the *indicates those still deciding.
