Hoke just put out an article saying we are about to officially hire Corey Williams from TT. Hopefully we are able to pull Taylor from the portal.

Would be as good of a hire as imaginable, IMO

Agreed. I’m assuming we will be paying him well, but this would be a big get for Bruce.

oh yeah, sure

I'm pretty sure Pettiford ain't leaving

Corey Williams will probably get us closer to Tre Johnson and other Texas Recruits

This sucks but it’s not as big of an impact as it used to be with the transfer portal.

That's a big time hire. Needed that news.

Funny thing is we discussed a couple weeks ago how Bruce has decided guys past the top 30 or so aren't worth signing out of high school. Just gonna choose to believe Labaron was a fringe take anyways (#41 247 Composite)

Wes leaving, Number of Guards on campus, and NIL were all reasons he left. I’ve heard he could be interested in going Gleauge or to Ole Miss.

I still think there is a lot of potential in that class fwiw.

Collins and Fredrick from UK both just entered the portal. I'm heavily intrigued by both but could see Fredrick getting back to his big 10 roots

I like Philon. He's skilled and can shoot. I do and did have some concerns if he's athletic enough to play at a high level. I saw him play against Huntsville and while he scored plenty he didn't dominate the way you would think a guy with his hype would.

Ah, we have reached the “he wasn’t that good anyway” point of his decommitment.

I absolutely want him at Auburn and I didn't say he wasn't good. I said the game that I saw him play he didn't impress me the way you would think Mr Basketball in the state of Alabama would impress. Athletically he's not on the same level guys like Petty or JD Davidson. I've seen both of them play as well and they had a few plays a game that just wowed you. He did not.

We obviously cut this kid loose since we hired top stud assistant Corey Williams.

He was borderline like nyc94 noted. We can’t have Williams coming in handcuffed because Wes was dumpster diving

Great pickup. He’s a better player than anyone we had on the bench last year.

Need shooting and he gives us that, along with some position flexibility where we need it
