Call me crazy but I have a good feeling about today, boys.

I think we’re going to upset Charlotte. Auburn 2.0???

LMU women lost to KY. But fought hard. Only suited out 7 players but KY got up by 30 plus and continued to press full court. 101-64.
Pretty much a repeat of last several years match ups with D1 teams for men in game with Auburn. Led for a good while but finally succumbed to depth and height 76-62. Guard Cornelius (Scuta) Taylor led the way for the Splitters with 25.

Sounds like the men gave Auburn all they wanted out of an exhibition game against a D2 team!

I’m going to make a bold prediction... Turner eventually gets drafted

That is bold.

I can see Bone getting drafted because I think he has the potential.

Turner would really need to improve his handle a good bit because I don’t think he has the defensive ability at the 2 required in the NBA

I’m trying to think of a comp. Tyler Johnson maybe? But I think he was an udfa

Bone definitely has more potential. I think it all falls on Turners handles as well as passing. He could potentially be a pg but there is a lot of work that needs to be done there. He’s looks more comfortable as a 2 guard but if he does want to make it to the nba then his route would possibly need to be as a pg

Sam Vecenie, a writer for “The Athletic” online, wrote an article listing the top 100 prospects for the 2019 NBA Draft Big Board. He had Admiral listed 56th, or thereabouts. I wrote a comment asking him if Kyle Alexander has a shot at being drafted. His reply,

“He certainly has the measurables, but the standard for bigs is SO high. It’s not impossible, but I’d be kind of surprised if he reaches that level this year.”

I know I saw him on some lists last year, but Vecenie almost sounds like he is unfamiliar with Kyle. “This year”, seems to indicate that he thinks he might make next year (and doesn’t know he’s a senior).
I’m paying $9.99 a month for “The Athletic”. The writers are usually much better than ESPN or SI or CBS, but I’m starting to find more and more articles with careless research by the writers. Another writer had Admiral listed as a sophomore (we wish). I’m not sure if it’s worth the money any more.

So The Athletic by most measures is the best sports outlet available and they list Admiral as a late 2nd round pick.

Ive heard the same somewhere else before.
