Head coach Bruce Pearl called today’s game against the Kentucky Wildcats a “disappointing loss”, words that seem to describe a substantial part of Auburn basketball’s season thus far. Auburn falls to an 11-11 record and 5-8 in SEC play.
But what does Auburn’s eleventh loss mean for Sharife Cooper’s future with Auburn basketball?
Auburn Wire reported last week that Cooper was up to No. 9 in the most recent ESPN mock NBA draft. He’s averaging 20.2 points per game, 8.7 assists, 4.2 rebounds, and is an 81 percent free-throw shooter.
