I made mention of this on the Brain Drain, but wanted to bring it here for pretty obvious reasons.
There is a move afoot to keep Johni Broome at Auburn for another season. Crazy, you say? Kinda. He’s already a first-team All-SEC guy and he made the AP’s third-team All-America team. He’s a pretty accomplished college basketball player and, well, those kinds of guys typically leave college ASAP. There is money to be made.
That is true for Broome as well, but is the NBA interested in him? It sounds like he’s a second-round guy, which adds significant complexity to making a team and making bank.
I believe there is an NIL number large enough to get Broome to stay at Auburn for another season.
Auburn, obviously, would love to have Broome back. So this will be something to watch in the coming days and perhaps weeks as the coaching staff does its best to figure out its roster.
