Bruce Pearl and Auburn...
are running roughshod through the SEC right now. Destroying LSU right now 56-34. This is Pearl's 4th year at Auburn. Here's his record his first 3 seasons there.
2014-15 Auburn 15-20 4-14 13th
2015-16 Auburn 11-20 5-13 13th
2016-17 Auburn 18-14 7-11 11th
2017-18 Auburn 18-2 6-1
Here's Howland's
2015-16 Mississippi State 14-17 7-11 11th
2016-17 Mississippi State 16-16 6-12 12th
2017-18 Mississippi State 14-6 2-5
Quit crying Stansbury crybabies

I thought AU fans were nuts when they were wanting Pearl gone SMH. He's a good coach.
-
Auburn is doing this with two starters suspended indefinitely in Wiley and Purifoy. Neither player has played all year. Interesting to note despite this Auburn has had 15 guys log minutes for them. That means Pearl has a shitload of walk-ons on his SEC leading squad. Hmm what's good for the goose and all
-
Let's not forget this other current example:
Frank Martin
And while his records were admittedly better than Howland's, it took Mike Anderson until 3 years to get to the NIT and the 4th year to play in the NCAA Tournament at Arkansas.

And we've been close against a lot of these teams that are very good. Bama just beat #12 OU; we had a big lead against AU; etc. This is a young team that just can't finish yet. I think we'll be happy if we just support this team (and show up to the dang games -- Auburn Arena was full even though they were awful to begin under Pearl).

Our fan support is pathetic. I do not make nearly the amount of games I should.

What has happened with the in-house investigation that they were having and Pearl was refusing to cooperate? They even offered to refund season ticket $ due to this mess with Chuck Person. Has winning big caused this to be forgotten and Pearl is OK guy?

I think our fans resemble our on court play most of this season. We Show up about half of the time.

I believe this is exactly what's taking place. All is forgiven and forgotten on the plains while they are winning big. This is the same school that hypes a bought Cam Newton Natty after all.

And they are under investigation.

That lack of an inside presence is going to be their death once tourney time gets here. They won't make it past the 2nd round of the NCAA Tourney.

I can't name one team I'm confident will put Auburn out right now. They play too fast, are too deep and shoot the 3 too well to be a 2nd round sucker. Pearl can coach too his teams don't lack motivation.

They would not meet 2nd round, but Virginia would give auburn fits

Good example. However, to be fair Virginia would give anyone fit. Bennett does a great job getting the guys to buy into his style of play.

Both teams look to be headed for 1 or 2 seeds so it'd make for an interesting elite8 or further matchup if they do meet. Maybe Auburn will meet Stephen F. Austin in the 2nd round though and we can root for that upset. That'd be a phenomenal matchup. SFA is gonna **** somebody up in the tournament.
