‘Baby Come Back’: A playlist asking Sharife Cooper to return for another season

Auburn guard Sharife Cooper is a talent that we hardly ever see and Shea Brennaman made him a playlist to ask him to stay for 2021-22.

Sharife Cooper deserves the world. He has single-handedly changed Auburn’s level of play and is hands-down the best freshman player in the country. Through seven games he’s averaging eight assists, five rebounds, and 21 points per game. NBA scouts are drooling over him with many mock drafts projecting him to be selected late in the lottery round.

Like every other Auburn fan I want Sharife Cooper to return next year because think of the insane possibilities. The talent coming in + the talent already on the floor = making another deep run in the NCAA Tournament. Last season we were robbed of seeing Isaac Okoro in postseason fashion and, so far this season, we have been robbed of seeing Sharife Cooper play alongside Justin Powell. Powell has been sidelined since sustaining a concussion against Texas A&M in early January whereas Cooper was not eligible to play until a week later.

In summary, I just want Sharife Cooper to have a full season playing with his friends and in an effort to convince him to return I have prepared him a playlist of songs that show him how much Auburn fans love him.
