As Auburn basketball sits out the return of March Madness from the real-life madness of the COVID-19 pandemic, they are not sitting out when it comes to recruiting for their 2021-22 team. Texas Tech transfer Nimari Burnett named an unofficial top five schools today and quickly added Auburn to make six.
The Tigers may be getting hot in the NCAA Transfer Portal after landing College of Charleston transfer Zep Jasper just last week. Jasper spoke very highly of Auburn basketball head coach Bruce Pearl and will have two years of eligibility remaining once he arrives on the Plains.
