Wes Flanigan was set for the best year of his basketball life – coming off a first-team all-SEC junior season and a top-ranked recruiting class coming to The Plains for his senior campaign – the problem for Wesley Flanigan was he had bone cancer in his left arm. Fortunately, it was caught in time but Flanigans's NBA dreams were dashed and he followed his father's footsteps and went into coaching. This season Flanigan was hired by head coach Bruce Pearl to return to his alma mater. Wes Flanigan is the subject of this edition of Talking Tigers Podcast.
AUTLIVEThe Bruce Pearl Family Foundation is once again continuing the fight against cancer with the fourth year of AUTLIVE, Auburn basketball's fight against cancer. The best way to beat cancer is to detect it early and be able to fight it on your home court. This year's AUTLIVE game will take place in Auburn Arena on Feb. 2, 2019 vs. Alabama at 7 p.m. on ESPN.
