Not a surprise.

Back on the market. Decommitted from Auburn this morning. As a PG I think we’re set here, but you never know.

2024 4 [star] Labaron Philon recently reopened his recruitment. He told me he’s heard from these schools since:

Kansas
Kentucky
Georgetown
Arizona
UConn
Ole Miss
LSU
Cincinnati
Cal

Philon averaged 35PPG this year for Baker HS (AL). #31 in the ESPN100.

[Lobot]

Philon is transferring to Link Academy for his senior year of HS.

[GoBearcats31]

UC made Philon's "final four," along with Alabama, Kansas and Ole Miss - some heavy hitters there, factoring in Chris Beard is now at Ole Miss https://www.on3.com/news/labaron-phi...e-miss-kansas/

Consensus top 50 recruit, some have him top 30.

Philon is set to take an official visit to Ole Miss. He's working on arranging visits to AL and UC.
