If you’re that talented it doesn’t actually matter where you play, they’ll find you. His argument - I think - is just that he feels he would’ve gotten popular exposure playing in college (that he didn’t get in the G League) that could’ve pushed him to #1. Whether that’s true or not is debatable, I really just hope Scoot sees it 😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus you'll get a fan base for life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunndone414 474 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Hickman is down to Auburn, Kansas and Gonzaga. Home state Zags should be the favorite, but this would be a huge pickup for us. Working in our favor is the fact that he would be the 3rd option at PG for Gonzaga. Edited May 13, 2021 by Dunndone414 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zeek 16,991 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 FWIW Bruce isn't giving up on Scoot until he tells him there's "zero chance" KD is still likely AU bound but it's still in the air with other teams going hard to get him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two seemed to have their minds made up at least 3 weeks in advance. I think Scooter legit is just arriving at this conclusion in the past few days or so.

tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted May 19, 2021 Author Share Posted May 19, 2021 Updated to include KD Johnson. I'm guessing Auburn is done for 2021, but unsure... one more spot left, but could be held until next year. We shall see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would call it a track meet game but these players are solid defensively as well.

tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted May 28, 2021 Author Share Posted May 28, 2021 Looking like there is a possibility Desi Sills will not be a part of the class after all. Transfer credit issue.

As late into his college stay, it's surprising he would have an academic issue w/ what courses he can transfer or not transfer w/ credit to AU?

I like that he brings a bevy of SEC experience, as well as experience deep in the NCAA Tournament, to the guard rotation. I'm incredibly hyped about Wendell Green and KD Johnson, but I think they need a veteran presence to help them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gravejd 3,311 Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 With 2 official spots open on the team does anyone have a feel for what Pearl plans to do to fill them? Are there still high quality players available in the portal or is it possible we'll leave some spots open for extra signees next season? Our roster has amazingly skewed much older over the course of 1 season with several guys i see as possible early NBA departures. So I could see the value in saving for a big singing class of young ones since we likely won't be able to use transfers immediately again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
