mustache eagle 2,406 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I recall that he could move well for a 7 footer. I think he ran the floor pretty well ... Being a freshman, not enough bulk and a little timid around the sec big men (i.e. Experience) were his weak points. I always had that ndiaye feel about him. In other words ... Nba quality by his senior year if he will work. Guys like this ... I'd love to see a rob Chubb type of work ethic and grit in a kid with this level of inherent talent.

auburntiger1987 759 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 This is HUGE!!! If we can develop him and Spencer we are going to have the size we've been lacking for years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger 8,829 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Great news just on height alone. I'm very pleased. It could be a big difference maker having him on the team next year. Hopefully he has been working on his game and strength Yes, but if we could have had him, Harris, cim, and Horace all available at the same time some very interesting combinations could have been made for mismatches. And him and Horace and Harris we could have quite a lengthy zone down low. It would help out as well Without a doubt. It would've been huge for us to have him this year but unfortunately for us that wasn't able to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnNTexas 7,154 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 In the big picture this might be best we will have him Wiley, and Spencer for 2 years. Big will go from a weakness to a strength. Add McLemore during that Span and we will have a big front line with depth maybe even have Purifoy plus Williams, Brown Harper and Herron giving us strength at all positions. I like it.

tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Can you guys imagine our starting lineup in 2017? PG-Harper SG-Brown SF-Heron/Purifoy PF-Wiley/Spencer/McLemore C-Reed/Spencer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger 8,829 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 He isn't but Canty's score first mentality might be beneficial for us off the bench if Harper is a PG that can initiate the offense...that intrigues me. He'd be going against second units who probably couldn't give him as much trouble as these longer first-team guards would. This is all based on if J Harper would be ready as a true freshman to run the offense, which is pretty unlikely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU64 10,122 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 With our luck lately, anyone projecting the 2017 starting line-up is one of the world's great optimists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we will see but I think Harper could definitely play the scorer off the bench role. He is deadly from 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger 8,829 Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 ^ I know next to nothing about the guy my post was just speaking on a hypothetical. Glad to hear he's a good shooter hopefully he can hit FTs too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should've registered with me when I saw Wiley. Even next year's projections will be night and day's difference from this current team.

Mikey 16,633 Posted January 21, 2016 Share Posted January 21, 2016 He is back Tom Green @AUBlog 5m5 minutes ago Center Trayvon Reed returns to team, will sit out remainder of season http://www.oanow.com/sports/college/auburn/basketball/men/center-trayvon-reed-returns-to-team-will-sit-out-remainder/article_6ced09fc-bb1b-11e5-8f92-9bf9ab6c3495.html… What's the purpose of sitting out? Pearl suspend him? Players have to maintain a certain rate of academic progress to be eligible to play. If Reed hasn't been passing classes somewhere he's probably not eligible to play this semester, per NCAA Academic progress rules.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gene Loblaw 636 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 damn. Dude had a perfect game against Oregon. Shot 100% from the floor and from the line. Looks like he's bulked up a bit too since his time with AU when he was a stick figure. Dude may find himself a spot in the league if he keeps it up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
