"We have to be smart in our evaluations because while we've worked on improving the NIL space, we've been in the middle to the bottom of the league," associated head coach Steven Pearl says. "We have to make great evaluations with guys who aren't going to break the bank. Auburn has stepped up their game to be aggressive in the transfer portal space but going into this year, we were eighth to tenth in the league."
