SEC readiness
Breakdown from Auburn Live’s Cole Pinkston:
Travis already has some experience on the junior college level. That experience gives him a step up on the high school guys. In order to be a starter at Auburn, Travis will need to add strength and power in his lower body to win with leverage on the interior.
Travis is more than likely set to be a rotational piece in his first year with the Tigers.
