tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Having trouble finding the link, but JT Thor just said he wants to "officially visit Auburn ASAP"..... not sure what the timeline for it would be as we will probably have to wait until at least April to get him on campus, but getting Thor in this class would be a huge get. Jaylin Williams 2.0 methinks. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DunderMifflin 60 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) Said to be down to three teams: Auburn, UCLA, Oklahoma State. Last time I looked OSU had most of the predictions but that was before AU made a push and got him on campus.

boomstick 1,315 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Sounds like Auburn leads for him. He's trying to get back to visit campus again ASAP. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuburnNTexas 7,147 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 (edited) Him and Green or Brown and Green and this would be a great class. If we got either Thor or Brown I would be real happy getting Cardwell as a 5 he is 6'11" has some tools and can be developed I like having a nucleus of 3-4 year players with 1 and done or 2 and done thrown in. I like having a solid nucleus that know the system and only having to teach 1 or 2 great players the system each year. While not impossible starting 5 super talented freshman is usually a very good team that wins on talent alone but seldom wins it all because it is hard to get 5 super stars to play like a team. Look at Memphis this year with the talent they have they should be better than they are. Edited March 19, 2020 by AuburnNTexas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep thinking Brown is going to talk himself into going where he really always wanted to go...Texas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he lost to tech in their first game of the big 12 tourney last week he was gone. And GB would of been ours or Memphis.

Dual-Threat Rigby 8,667 Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 If we're talking stretch 4 in the early Blake Griffin mold where he has some playmaking abilities, this would be a yuge get. Auburn's halfcourt offense looked really good when it ran through Okeke and Okoro in the past. If you could get Green, him and Cliff, that really fills in every hole except that GT PG I think many of us would like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor visited Auburn for two games during the season and will be back at least once more before he makes a decision. “I’ll definitely be back for an official visit,” Thor said. “I don’t have a timetable, yet, but I want to go back to Auburn for an official after all this coronavirus gets out of the way. Hopefully, in April.” Thor, from Norcross, Ga., last visited Auburn on March 4. It was the Tigers’ last home game of the season, a 78-75 loss to Texas A&M. “My brother and sister went with me and it was a really good visit and a really good game,” Thor said. “It was a tough loss for Auburn, but it was still cool to be there. The atmosphere was crazy. I liked Auburn. I liked it a lot.” Following the game, Thor met with the Auburn coaches, including Bruce Pearl and lead recruiter Ira Bowman. “I like Coach Pearl a lot,” Thor said. “I like Coach Bowman, too. He texted me (Tuesday) about the coronavirus telling me to beware and stuff like that.” Pearl and Bowman are two of the reasons Thor has high interest in Auburn. They’re two reasons he wants to return to the Plains once more before making his decision. “I really like the coaches and Auburn is a great school,” Thor said. “They have definitely made an impression on me. I really like them. I feel like I could see myself in an Auburn jersey.” Thor lists his top three schools as Auburn, Oklahoma State and UCLA. He doesn’t, however, list a favorite among the three. “I feel pretty good about all of them,” Thor said. “They are all at the top, 33.3 percent each.” Rivals ranks Thor, who is 6-feet-10 and 200 pounds, No. 56 in the Rivals150 and the No. 10 power forward in the 2020 class. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
