“Auburn has really been recruiting me hard,” noted Tandy. “That is the school that has been talking to me the most since they offered. They just had a real good season and were at the top of the SEC, and my cousin, Scotty Hopson, played for Coach (Bruce) Pearl, so it could be a good fit as well.” 



KyKy Tandy is just the type of PG Pearl likes.. this is great news.

Feels like the Pearl recruiting machine is starting to get rolling again


Excited to see what Pearl does this summer.. I hope we can make up ground with Walton, who is teammates this summer in AAU ball with Tandy on Team Thad.

Okoro2, Walton3, J.Williams4 and Tandy1 would be an elite class..

Also, Rivals has an article on 4* Forward Jaylin Williams:so I C&P’ed an excerpt:
quote:

Williams discusses some of the schools involved in his recruitment.

Auburn: “It went well. We scrimmaged a little bit with the players. We talked with Bruce Pearl for a while, walked around and looked at the cafeteria, the dorms and everything else there.”

Florida: “I like Florida. They aren’t too far from home. I like the SEC.”

Louisville: “They are cool coaches. They call and check up on me a lot to see how I’m doing and how my mom is doing. They were on me really hard at Xavier.”

Missouri: “Michael Porter text me a lot about them. I like their program and I like that they are in the SEC.”

Xavier: “It was crazy because I went to the game when they played Villanova. It was crazy. The fans were crazy.”

RIVALS REACTION The two schools in the best spot for Williams are Auburn and Louisville. His recent trip to Auburn has the Tigers on his mind. Chris Mack has recruited him as hard and as long as anybody, so Louisville will have a great shot at plucking him out of the Peach State. Williams did mention a couple times that he likes the idea of staying close to home and playing in the SEC, so it will be interesting to see how that plays into his recruitment going forward.

From Mike Marshall on Twitter LINK

“Word is, Auburn basketball has settled on a name for its vacant assistant coaching position. If the frontrunner is indeed hired, it will create quite a buzz.”

Lol I don't disagree, but still found that little tidbit interesting. More than likely he doesn't know anything and is just saying that b/c the hire is obviously close to happening.

He blocks anyone who fact checks him on incorrect facts he puts up. I corrected him, he acknowledged it but didn't delete tweet + blocked me like an ahole



Got to be a special kind of a-hole to block someone when you're wrong. Shouldn't require fans to fact check reporters

Same thing has happened to me on twitter with Jay Tate and Marcello. They are all very sensitive. I appreciate what they do but sheesh.

Think he's technically just a contributer & not a full on repoter.

Marcello is just an obvoxious dick.

With JGT it may depend how the correction was presented. If it's seen as done with attitude it's a quick way to get blocked by a reporter. For example with me, I hate being wrong. If someone corrects me & doesn't start it with something like "with all due respect" I consider it done w/ an attitude. I may be full on wrong there but that's how I am.

Back to the potential new assistant coach. JGT said it will be someone who can bring a player then other supposed insiders said players.

jhead34282 (a pretty informed poster on Rivals for Bball stuff) seems to think that it is Brandin Knight, not confirmed but he has heard that.

Knight is currently an ASST at Rutgers, but before that was Jamie Dixon's chief recruiter at Pitt. He was all Big-East at Pitt as a player and is a big time recruiter in the NE and SE. Also is really good friends with Omar Cooper, the coach/director of Nike AAU team of Athletes of Tomorrow in ATL. The significance? That's the AAU team for Isaac Okoro and Sharife Cooper.

Would be a pretty big time hire.
