Often regarded as one of the greatest basketball players in Auburn history, Charles Barkley said Thursday that Johni Broome could be deserving of that distinction:

Leading the team is Johni Broome, a six-foot-10 forward averaging 18.9 points per game, 10.6 rebounds per game, and 2.3 blocks per game. His outstanding performance this season has earned him a unanimous selection to the first-team All-American, a significant achievement following his recognition as a third-team All-American last season.
