Would be HUGE to get him. If he announces Auburn I literally will not give two shits about football. Honestly, I am already at that point now, but it will be worse if he commits. I'm so ready for bball season.

Just read an article on a FROSH TE that played in 12 games & caught a TD pass against UGA. Some guy I've never even heard of (John Shenker?), which I can't even believe myself. DNGAS at this point, and as I've said before, as long as we keep BRUCE, they can let anyone they want coach football down there.

RAYJON NEEDS TO COMMIT. DAMMIT I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE

I will be devastated. I may call Bruce and let him know I have cancer or something just so he may come give me a hug

 

[Denim Vest]

Presume the young buck realized this was his best chance to be a boog since Rayjon is imminent.

according to the Kansas site I should be calling Bruce's people.

Randy, whose heart is bigger than his brain.... tells me that site is trash and to not dial Bruce just yet.

I appreciate that, Van.

Which Kansas site? 247 site has nothing other than what they said on Monday - between us and them and no clue which way he is leaning

Just reading their posts bra. I’m a sensitive kitten when it comes to my most favorite juco recruit since Nick Marshall.

I’m going to kms.

 

[ThrustMaxwell]

I'm interested to see how the last scholly gets used now. Might have a Plan B or maybe give it to a walk-on saving it for 2020.

I'd assume we still will try to bring in a SG through grad transfer market

Maybe but doubtful. He was a potential luxury addition imo. We have Samir and Jamal Johnson for the 2. It’s entirely possible they try to add someone at the 3 too. Only really Okoro there now. Just depends where Swiss army Samir really plays

 

[ohsfan28]

I disagree with the luxury addition comment. I am seeing a rebuilding year next year unless we add at least one more impact player. This assumes both Harper and Okeke are gone.

Maybe wrong term. Was just saying that he wasn’t necessarily a position of need. You’re right we need a scorer. But I was just saying that it doesn’t have to be a shooting guard since we do have depth there

 

[ohsfan28]

Something shady is also going on at Memphis. Even Calipari didnt recruit to Memphis as well as Hardaway is doing

If so it won’t last long. They are a mid major.

Wiseman is from Memphis. Another dude goes to Olive Branch which is basically Memphis. Rayjon Tucker was just at Little Rock, which is right outside of Memphis. There’s talent there this year. Could be shady too but some of it is those kids are close

Meh. Doesn’t matter too much in basketball as long as they can schedule a good OOC. Plus the American conference is fine since Cincinnati is in there and Hurley will make UConn good too

 

[Bryan9451]

Gents, we are now looking at:

1) McCormmick
2) Samir
3) Okoro
4) Purifoy
5) Wiley/Mac

We need Harper back.

 

[MomentInTheSun]

Please god let Cooper reclassify.

But I still think we’re a tourney squad as is

 

[ohsfan28]

Memphis is supposedly going to get 1 or 2 more studs according to rumor. Their recruiting will likely be as good as any team in the country in the end.

The city of Memphis has always produced a decent amount of top basketball players. Still doesn't really explain how Hardaway is out recruiting Calipari when he was at Memphis

Cal had a .760 winning percentage at Memphis. Lil Penny will make them a Top 15 program in the country. Like they’ve been before.

 

[wmk0002]

Kinda hope he goes pro now. Would somehow sting a little less.

Your point is fair, that still has the ability to be a top 5 boog squad in the last 20 years.

 

[Uncle Baby Billy]

I stirred up a hornets nest on Twitter by saying the SEC won’t be as good as last year. UGA and Florida won’t be elite like LSU and Tennessee this year. Tom Crean is a meh coach. Jury is out on Bama, Vandy, and Texas A&M. And that Auburn should be disappointed with a less than top 3 finish.


Why is anything that I said controversial? I don’t get it.

well, can't say i'm surprised, have no doubt bruce has some other stud to come in and help this squad.

Hmm unfortunate. I can only assume the young man called Bruce to commit and was told we don’t have room. That or he has a sibling that was abducted by some inconsequential boog admin. Oh well all the best.

 

[Fatz Geronimo]

I’m not shocked - but a bit surprised... I thought the Flanigan relationship would win out

if nothing else, this shows the importance of Chuma staying in the draft... yes, I said staying... we’ve GOT to get a guy drafted and in the league ASAP... what Memphis can offer that we can’t is “our coaches played in the NBA... the NBA can’t even find Auburn on a map because they haven’t put a guy in the league since you were born.”

yeah yeah yeah - Final Four - 2 SEC rings - hanging banners... but none of the guys we’re recruiting dreamed of winning shit in college - they dreamed of playing in the NBA... BRUCE and Steven can only sell so much without being able to point to guys that they put in the league since they’ve been at Auburn

Jared and Bryce might scratch and claw onto a roster or 2-way contract over the next 24 months, but they’re not getting their names called on draft night... Chuma will... and if he can sneak into the first round and BRUCE can turn that into “this kid was a big, soft teddy bear with top 50 pedigree but far from a NBA lock, and in 2 years we turned him into such a monster he just got drafted in the first round even with a torn ACL... so just imagine what we can do with you, Mr. Can’t Miss 5 Star”

next year is a rebuilding year, but get Chuma drafted, let BRUCE hit the trail with that new bullet to fire, sign the best class in Auburn history, and we’re here to stay for the long haul... we’ll have legitimately built a championship caliber athletic program from scratch
