I couldn't understand what you were trying to say in either of those posts.

The article doesn't say anything about Auburn in regards to Jackson. It does mention Arizona and Kansas. Whoever said that on Twitter should be fired.

Big men notes from AUC
-Udoka Azabuike & Bruno Fernando are the top high school targets.
-AU will definitely bring in a big man for next season
-Staff would prefer to get an experienced big who does not have to adapt to the physicality of college ball.
-Could easily go the juco or transfer route (no names mentioned)

Auburn, Alabama, Tennessee, and UAB were all at Spain Park the other night watching Wiley, Alex Reese, and Jamal Johnson.
Solid chance Reese flips to Bama

Interesting. I didn't know you could be uncommitted and flip to a school. Who knew.

I'm hoping we get Reed and a grad transfer big
Reed got thrown into the fire mid season without knowing system or having time to adjust. Given another offseason + weight gain he should be able to give 10-15 minutes.
With Spencer, Purifoy, Mckelmore and grad transfer big we should be reasonable in the post

Any chance TJ Lang gains some weight and plays a emergency stretch 4? He's listed at 6'7, if he got to ~225 he'd be big enough to survive in the post in a bind

If we could put together a 2017 class of Jamal Johnson, Austin Wiley, Davion Mitchell and Garrison Brooks we'd be stacked.

No... Lang is a spot up shooter who needs to be running off of screens and such. Heron is a guy that could play a utility 3 or 4. He's only 6'5 but very strong and physical with the ball in the paint. Think of Herron as the future Tyler Harris. Like Harris, Herron may bring the ball down the court and hang around the perimeter one possession then he may be posting up in the paint the next possession. Very versatile.
Michigan State just graduated a guy like that Brendon Dawson. He was a 3 year starter for them and had a lot of success playing the 4 despite being listed at 6'6.

Harris is a 6'10 Stretch 4...
Heron is a 6'5 slasher/playmaker...
Think of Heron as a future James Harden. He's not a 4, he's a 2 or 3, nothing else

So think of the 6'4 Heron as a 6'10 230lb player?

So instead of saying a 6'7 player who got to 225lb can play like Sparty's 6'6 225lb player, you think we should put our 6'4 200LB FR in that role? Makes sense

1- I suggested this as a depth/emergency option for mostly post defense not offense.
2- Malcolm Canada played post defense then PG/Wing on offense last year. No reason Lang can't be a spot up shooter and still give some post defense
3- Lang with some bulk and some inside game would be more valuable than just an outside shooter

Lang would be awkward at the 4 given his timidness and lack of aggression on offense. Can you see him flashing to the high post calling for the ball or setting picks and rolling to the bucket?
He's really playing too many minutes as is but we're so short handed we have no choice. His role needs to be coming off the bench with fresh legs and running of screens hitting open shots. IMO
And disregard Harris and Herons size I'm talking skill set. both thrive in the paint both finish well around the rim both can play outside or inside.
Harden is a good size comparison but skill wise Hardens a 2 guard IMO someone that can knock down shots and run the point.

Would love Jamal Johnson, but his dad played at Bama and with Avery looking like a good hire there, I'm sure he'll end up at Bama
