Expecting a top positionally ranked freshman to at least look competent in the SEC is not too much to ask. Jabari of course had games where he looked a little lost but he also had great games. Aden was 90% lost this season.

We just need Aden's best years as an Auburn Tiger.

We got spoiled by Thor, Okoro, and Jabari playing like leaders in their freshman years. That was marvelous, but not typical. Okeke didn't even play that great as a tf. He was little timid.

This is such hyperbole. He only looked “lost” in a few games this year. His shot wasn’t falling for most of the year, but that doesn’t mean he looked lost. He had an elite assist to turnover ratio for a freshman. He averaged more minutes per game than Tre on a team that went 27-7. He needs to be better but yall acting like he was awful all year are so far off.

Jabari was a projected top 5 pick before he ever suited up for Auburn. Aden didn’t even hit any draft projections until the season started.

The kid looked competent. Was he lighting the scoreboard on fire? No. But he has excellent ball skills and will only get better with experience.

No sense running him off bc he didnt meet our fanbases unrealistic expectations
