2020 5* Greg Brown from Texas puts Auburn in his top 10.


Hopefully he's tall, physical, and really strong.

Oh, and with big hands.

You never know when Cousin Brick is gonna show up.

Its like opening up presents on Christmas morning, excited about the potential of awesome toys in those boxes but you know there's some socks and underwear in there somewhere.

That’s hilarious. To be fair to cousins brick, our bigs are nonexistent and Bruce has green lighted bombs away.

that's true. If you look at our big's stats, they are not strong contributors. Spencer only avgs about 4 pts a game, McLemore only about 6 a game and that now is 3 pointers or alley oop jams, and Wiley who hasn't been able to contribute any since his return from injury.

So basically it's Chuma, and our guards, unless Dunbar is on, or Purifoy or Doughty. Luckily Dunbar is playing fairly well to give us some power and scoring from the #3 position.

He’s 6’9 and an freak from an athletic standpoint. He would definitely give us more of a presence in the paint. Needs to add some weight though.

this is my biggest gripe. We don't have anybody who will go up and slam in the opponents face, when around the rim. We have guys who can block around the rim, but they all play finesse on the O end.

Who would have thought we'd miss a 6'3" PF so much?


Speaking of underestimating how much we'd miss somebody, Mustapha Heron is also killing it right now for St. Johns. He was Big East POW last week. I saw an NCAAT projection just yesterday that had AU as a 9 seed vs 8 seed St. John's I have no doubt if that match up were to happen that AU would lose and Mustapha would go for 30-10-10 and probably be the one to hit the game winner in the most heartbreaking fashion imaginable.

Dunbar starting. I’m assuming over Doughty.

I’ll never get used to us shooting 3s while on a 3 to 1 fast break.

Yeah that was dumb but it went in

Also I like more Dunbar and less Doughty.

Dunbar just may be the catalyst to a rejuvenated offense.

Then Doughty passes up a wide open Purifoy to dribble it off his knee.

It was announced that 15 NBA scouts were on hand btw. Probably all to see Gafford though.
