    Well, our job just got more difficult. This is a program that we could expect to compete with and get wins at the current stage of our program. This will make Alabama get more serious as well.

    And we ended up with a no name with a more attractive job. I wish we had hired Joe Dean Jr when we had the chance after the Ninja left. Instead, we ended up with Loafers. Oh well...

    So a program that hasn't made the tourney in over a decade hires Pearl and we get an assistant coach from Clemson. Good one Stricklin.

    Not only that but check this out. Two shit basketball schools do this with their position.

    USC - Frank Martin
    Auburn - Bruce Pearl

    Looks like we will be the bottom feeder for a while fellas.

    Oh ffs, people. Just suck it up and deal with the fact that we are going to have Rick Ray. Plus he had a 2-year show-cause so there was no way in HELL that we were going to get Bruce Pearl when we needed a new coach so get off the soapbox already.

    Engie, why would he not take it? Brand new facility to recruit with plus plenty of money backing him. Give him 2 years, and AU will be relative in SEC, and making waves nationally. Great hire for AU!!

    It's the truth not a soap box. We had no business making a no name hire when we did. Jacobs had less to sell and got 1000x the coach.

    Because the teams we were fighting for the bottom with have much better coaches then us and will recruit better. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure this out.

    Because patience would have lended itself to him having much better options.

    Thats not true

    Auburn has a new arena
    Auburn has way more money
    Auburn has a better recruiting base
    Auburn is not in Mississippi and fairly close to Atlanta

    There is not much difference in the middle of the SEC and the bottom. We will be just fine
