He’s right and for saying “they got beat by Yale” the day before the game of the century

Pearl should talk about how Nate shrugged his shoulders about a mother getting murdered by one of his players.

Auburn is deserving to be the number 1 team. If we can split it will be great.

Pearl sent his son out this week to claim Alabama hired Oats because of Pearl. Both sides are using the media to take jabs.

Which is a really, really stupid take - but sums up their basketball fandom pretty well. They didn’t start watching until Pearl showed up.

Does anybody at all remember the refs in that game? I don't think people do.

I wish coaches had more real human moments like this instead of stupid coschspeak 100% of the time. “We only look forward… one game at a time… last season was last season”

Naw they care about past, present, and future like anyone else.

I mean Bama would have rolled with Avery if not for Bruce. They felt the pressure to match AU. They’ve done well since so it was a great move.

frick you.

I was walking to Beard-Eaves Mausoleum to watch Barkley and Person play when I was a student there.
I have followed them through Sonny, Cliff, TJ Eagles, Lebo, and friggin Tony Barbee.
Let me enjoy having an actual icon coaching there now.

I went to a dozen SEC basketball tournaments before Pearl was hired as Auburn’s HC.

Try again.

Remember this scenario:

-Bruce gets Auburn to the final 4
-Avery gets yall to the bubble


Yall absolutely had to fire that clown and Bruce was a big reason why.

There's no bait here. He's 1000% right. It wasn't a shot at anyone. Stupid emotional decisions can hurt your team. He mentioned calling out his own players saying there's no need for extra curricular stuff. I love CBM as a player but he makes me want to pull my hair out sometimes.

He trying to get in CBM head knowing he’s a hot head. Hopefully it doesn’t work but it’s not a bad play by Oats

Yeah I went to almost every game when I was in school and Tony was the coach. It was pitiful but I’ve been watching my whole life. Still got my Cliff Dwellers shirt

I’d take 3 Tony Barbees for 1 John Pelphrey. Kick in a Stan Heath.

We had to fire Avery, whether Auburn was good or sucked arse. That's because Avery sucked and was expensive.

Now, the real question should've been, would Bama have spent $2.5-3 million/year on Avery if Auburn and Tennessee sucked? We wanted a big splash hire after Anthony Grant was fired. Our big rivals had top coaches, and we didn't want to be a bottom feeder.

But around that time it's even Slive told all the schools to start using the football money rolling I'm and start investing in basketball. And when you look around the conference, everybody started spending more on their coaches, and invested in top facilities.

He sucked compared to Bruce, and that's all that mattered to y'all. You can deny this all you want but your denial rings hollow!
