Auburn basketball: 2020 guard Sharife Cooper commits to Tigers

Sharife Cooper, a 5-star guard in the 2020 recruiting class, has committed to Auburn.

The 6-0 point guard, who attends McEachern High School (GA), had interest from numerous programs around the country before choosing to commit to the Tigers doing this official visit.

Alabama, Florida, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Ole Miss, Tennessee, Texas A&M, and Vanderbilt were the other SEC schools that offered him.

Cooper is rated as the No. 2 point guard and No. 18 player overall in the 2020 class, according to 247Sports.
