OT: 2021-2022 AUBURN BASKETBALL

I do wonder if the Boogs will have any intrest in Wheeler. He's a decent player. His 3pt % though is trash

Boogosphere saying a Desi Sills commitment is imminent. Give me an excuse to dick around with my boog hoops spreadsheet but otherwise not too exciting.

Ehhhhhhh. I don't think he's a bad player. But I'm not sure I want Arkansas' sloppy seconds. And yeah, makes me think there's bad news on the Scoota front. But I've also fully convinced myself that Wendell Green is gonna be a next level god. So whatever

I’d prob like him a lot more if he didn’t have the red streak in his hair.

Some boog saying JT was wanting to come back but he’s too far behind academically. Outrageous and pathetic if we actually let that happen so I don’t really believe it.

Ima continue to assume Scoot is still on the way cause Scoot is life.
 
I’m just gonna keep lying as long as it takes to convince myself he’s Mini Malik and is an overqualified secondary piece that’s good enough to swing games when he’s hot and won’t be relied upon enough to hurt us when he’s cold

Same here and I think that’s a reasonable assumption of his role. I’m cool with our 4th or 5th best guard and 9th through 11th best player capable of going off on teams and scoring double digits in SEC play/big games. The lights won’t be too bright for this guy like they were for Malik, Jvon etc their first years with us. The fact he’s an above average on ball defender is perfect for us.

Yeah he’s a nice depth piece if we accept Thor is gone. Which I don’t but anyway.

He’s not Scoot. We still need Scoot to bring this whole roster back around to the presumed top team in the land we all expect. Without him we’re a mere sweet 16 type team which Bruce will undoubtedly mold into a title contender even though we can’t see it now.
 
Desi Just Ran by My Window Sills.™ Perhaps one day he'll live in Arky's nightmares like a boog Fred Talley.

Dude lit us up last year. Maybe Bruce’s voice gets him going. We are going to be deeper than we’ve ever been IMO, even with no Thor or Scoot.
 
very very interesting. Getting in 3 guard transfers though kind of shows him that Bruce doesn't think he's ready to be a go to starter. So who knows

Yeah thought about that for sure. Still, I really liked this kid's potential. If it means Scoot though, I'm all in.

I think the plan was to always have at least 4 guards for next year. When he signed, Auburn had 4 guards on roster and then 3 with Turbo transferring midseason.

This just screams to me that he thought with all the transfers out that he would just be handed a starting role. I hate he is leaving as I think he has a bright future. But with the portal, we could potentially pick someone up that can make an even bigger impact next season than Alexander would have
 
I don’t even know what to make of it

I don’t like it, and at the same time, it may not mean anything at all for next years team depending on how the final roster shakes out

something seems off though, unless he’s aware of another move coming - or likely to come... I’m not gonna be bothered unless we get to February and are 1 knock down shooter short of making a run, which I don’t expect to happen

oh well... BOOG OR DIE, young man... best of luck to you navigating this cruel world without having experienced the loving, guiding touch of BRUCE
 
We have zero length at the guard position now lol

Unless Flanny is playing two

Flanny will be at the three. Looks like Bruce is valuing ball handling over length. But the lack of length doesn't bother me. Jasper and Sills are really good defenders and guard whoever the 2 from the other team ends up being
