Would we really want Kobe Brown (even IF he wasn't a package deal with his brother, which he probably is)? Wasn't he just kind of "meh" outside of going off against us?

I could be wrong but the maximum scholarship limit doesn't seem nearly as important with the new transfer portal?

It seems that as a coach, more than 10 players expecting to play a lot of minutes right away could be a curse as much as a blessing.

Before the open transfer policy depth was built from freshmen recruits that would take a couple of years to be ready. Now, those guys leave if there not ready their first season anyway.

Not saying it doesn't give you more chance to "hit" on a player with high potential but depth is being ala carte built through transfers.

I'm still a bit indifferent on JQ as well and I think we should take another Guard even if he does come back. That may not be a popular opinion but I don't want to go into the season with only 2 PGs and rely on JQ to find his form at the start of conference play.

I think Keon Ellis will get a guaranteed second round contract and he could be a good 3 & D guy in the NBA with room to grow (Offensively Speaking)!

No YOURE WRONG Cobra. I was told specifically by Auburn insiders that he was returning to college, entering the portal, and transferring to Auburn.

You better check your sources Cobra because your info is wrong

After looking at Reeves more, I want him the most at the moment. Great offensive skillset, very good size, the potential is there on the defensive end, and even though he was a volume shooter he was actually very efficient.

Appreciate him and Shack not wasting anyone’s time. Q is the only one up in the air it really feels 50/50. Bridges and Reeves seem like the next two additions to me. Would love Oquendo just not sure where we stand.

My thoughts precisely. Blows my mind that he isn't considered a top 3 transfer by anyone. I guess it's because of his team's record, because the eye test and individual stats support his case.

One of the dumber things I’ve read recently was that rumor. The guy who posted it is some wannabe insider on On3. Couldn’t believe that was the limb he wanted to go out on

Good luck to him. He was a tad bit disappointing at times last year but overall Keon had a really good career at Bama. He wanted to win more than anyone else outside of Q off this past team.

Hopefully he gets picked up in the 2nd round.

For the most part it's a life changing decision so to speak and its hard and I wouldn't want to be in there shoes.

Bridges could be elite defensively if keeps working at it because he's long and athletic. Offensively, if he develops his handle good enough to create his own shot then he really could be something special.

Reeves just needs to focus on defense this off-season because he has the GOODS offensively.

Oquendo is very similar to Ellis...they are super athletic and very active with their hands. He needs to work on his perimeter shot but he has the makeup to be a very special player!

If we could get just two of them shoot I think the SEC will have a problem on their hands!
