No but expected alot more considering the hype. Meanwhile AU is riding a true freshmen stud to a #1 seed and lock for the elite 8. Had great run riding the surprise of Okeke a few years ago. Pearlescent is whopping Oats arse in recruiting evaluations.



I dunno about that - Jabari Smith and JD Davison are not in the same class and nobody thought they were.

Jabari Smith has been an automatic, no doubt Top 3 pick in the 2022 draft since he was like 15. JD was a borderline Top 10, 5-star player who had a lot of raw skill and played small school ball. A lot of people weren't sure about his immediate translation to college ball as a shooter or defender (though his summer circuit made a lot of those folks into believers).

Besides, everybody wanted Jabari. Everbody wanted JD. It's not like Auburn didn't want Davison, they recruited him to the very end.

Has the basketball program abandoned the “blue collar” construction hat stuff yet? Wish they would.

It’s cringe. Plus it only works for like half a year before elite players are embarrassed to join.
