Part of me wants to see Pegues run 32-34 mpg. I think he is a dude.

He’ll likely have to with the way it’s looking. Good news is I think he’s someone that will do well with that many minutes. Bad news is we are screwed if anything happens to him.

Do you think the South Carolina game will be on a Saturday?

I went in January 2023. It was fun.

And that’s why filling the 3 vacant schools is so important

Yep, I’d be shocked if Bruce used the 13th one unless it’s a walk on. Normally I’d agree with his philosophy that you’re not gonna get 13 quality players so might as well use it for a walk on, but AD is basically a walk on in my eyes. He’s a good scout team player and adds value to the team but don’t see him ever actually being a contributor during games.

You may be right but I haven’t seen that with my own eyes yet. He may be useful in a pinch

I just watched Mitchell's highlights at Texas.... yes, please.

His glaring weakness is 3-point shooting, which probably hurts his value a lot in the modern game. But in every other part of his game he's a major impact player. In fact, he's exactly the kind of player Auburn has needed in my opinion for a few years.

Not sure if he barely shot because he sucked (possible considering he’s 0-8 for his career) but he also looked good in some pre draft workouts shooting 3’s. Way different setting than a game but had a solid, repeatable stroke. If he adds that to his game then he becomes a very good player.

Yeah I am sure we are selling him on shooting threes. Just didn't get a chance to showcase it at Texas.

Did he make it to campus?

Visit ended a little while ago. Hoke has some quotes. He said all the right things after. Part of me is skeptical if he was actually meaning what he was saying or just parroting the recruiting pitch. Said he was mostly focused on development and wasn’t too concerned with NIL since that money isn’t going to be there in 10 years.

I feel pretty confident in Mitchell committing sometime over the next few days.

Im wary to even post this, because I’ve been bit quite a bit this portal cycle.
