What happens tomorrow?

Agreed that Turbo and Cooper will relied upon to defend those type guys but I think Flanigan could surprise you in that regard. He has decent lateral quickness and can make up for some of the lag with his length

We likely land 5* Jabari Smith

I agree on Flanigan. In addition to what you said he also is fundamentally sound and plays with effort. You can tell he comes from a basketball family. I'm a fan of his. He just needs to add a respectable 3 pt shot to his game to take the next step as a player.

I hope you are referring to potential because Cooper was a very very poor defender in high school. Sure he out talented some guys he defended and got some steals but in no way was he a move your feet defender kind of player.
That usually is the case with your PG in high school.
I remember Harper was a terrible defender when he got to Auburn. He got better but he never was a stopper on the perimeter.
He is taller than Cooper but not by much.
Cooper just needs to learn how to defend better, and just be the PG Harper was (although it is debatable if he ever will be the better outside shooter that Harper was).

If anything Cooper has an inch or two on Harper. But like most HS players it’s an effort thing when it comes to defense. Lock down guys like Okoro are a rare breed at that stage.

Landing Jabari Smith would be big time.. I think we’re in a good spot.

Given the fact that everyone seems to be changing/putting in predictions for AU I’m prepared to melt if it doesn’t go our way

I submit my crystal ball.. Jabari to Auburn.

The kiss of death! (just kidding)....

If Jabari commits tomorrow he will become the highest rated player in modern recruiting history to commit to AU.
Bruce will then have all of the top 5 all time recruits and 8 of the top 10 in AU history.

Who are the other 2? Vot Barber I'd guess is one. Maybe Frank Ford the other
Posted on 10/8/20 at 5:21 pm to marshallcotiger
Could be Jamison Brewer... a PG that Ellis signed back in the early 2000s

If rankings went that far back Ford, Barkley, C. Person would all probably find themselves in the top 10-15. Especially Ford would probably be in the top 3.

What time is the announcement today?
Posted on 10/9/20 at 8:45 am to Rhymenoceros
I believe it's at 5:10 EDT

Sounds like he will definitely commit to us. Now we just have to hold off the G-League for 10 months.
Here's to hoping it goes horribly for Jalen Green & Co.

Do we know a deadline for him to opt or not into G league?
