I don’t know why everyone is so high on Holloway.


Because he was a 5* recruit and while stargazing is kind of stupid in football, the hit rate is a lot higher in basketball. It's pretty uncommon for a 5* recruit to not at least become a productive college player.

Also you can't deny the allure of taking an underperforming Auburn player and turning him into an All-SEC type guy. We don't recruit against them head to head very much in basketball, but the narrative would be unavoidable and it would drive their fans fricking nuts.

The talent is there. He became mindfricked and lost all confidence to the point that he was almost unplayable at the end of the season. If he comes here, my hope is Oats builds up the confidence over the summer and he shows why he’s a 5* next season. With that being said, I’m sure he’ll sign elsewhere and pages of discussion will be moot
