Yep just down the road but recently sold to BPEA EQT, a Hong Kong-based private equity firm, and Nord Anglia Education. So it will be interesting to see what continues to go on there.

Did I see that price correctly?
1.25 Billion? LOL. I couldn’t believe that when I read it

Yep. IMG Academy will partner with EQT's portfolio company, Nord Anglia Education, which runs several international schools in 33 countries. Jack Hennessy, who is the co-head of education at buyer BPEA EQT, stated that the company plans to offer IMG Academy's sports programs to students across Asia.
So they bought all of IMG in 2013 for over 2 bil. And just sold the school for 1.25 now. Crazy but looks like they will expand.

Coming to IMG Soon "Badminton Camps". The county did a bad land deal with them a long while back.

Just saw a list of upcoming announcements (most we already knew, some I didn’t know):

(Bball) ***** C Flory Bidunga (around 8pm) - apparently we’ve become team to beat

08/20 or 9/3:
**** OL Deandre Carter - expected to pick AU
08/21:
**** DL JJ Faulk - expected to pick AU
08/22:
***** S Zaquan Patterson - On3 says Miami but seems like we have a shot

I think we get all of those listed. Zaquan seems iffy, but I think Auburn has made him a priority over the last month.

I hear you Smuphy, Id love to get this one. I saw where one of the recruiter "experts" made mention that his mom would prefer he is out of the whole south Florida scene. Not that he is a bad kid, but you know how local crews can feel disrespected if you want to better your own life, whether you were friends with them or not. May be just wishful projection on their part.

That would make for one hell of a August.

What a difference one year can make. It hurts my soul to think how far ahead we would have been if we just hired freeze in 2020. I honestly believe we'd be competing for the west title in the last year of division play.

Probably still have Bo as well if he wasn’t in the league already

Sometimes you gotta hit the bottom for everybody to get aligned and on the same page.

Lindsey just committed. Solid pickup. I didn’t realize he was 6’5. Gonna be a monster.
Posted on 8/12/23 at 2:03 pm to AUlock54
TJ Lindsey to Auburn!
Posted on 8/12/23 at 2:06 pm to Stidham8
Posted on 8/12/23 at 2:10 pm to smuphy72
Really? All the sites have him at 6’3. Guess he is still growing. Great pickup.
Posted on 8/12/23 at 2:15 pm to GoCrazyAuburn
Rivals has him listed at 6’5”
Posted on 8/12/23 at 2:19 pm to RockyMtnTigerWDE
2024 class up 2 spots to #14 on 247.
Posted on 8/12/23 at 2:20 pm to RockyMtnTigerWDE
Franklin, Lindsey, Blocton, and Nicolas would be awesome
Posted on 8/12/23 at 2:21 pm to TheJones
Yeah that would be a very good group. Started a little slow, but DL recruiting is looking good.
