We should hire Sir Charles as an assistant coach.

I up voted

Are you guys really excited by Rick Stansbury(sp)? War Blogle chimes in with this

@WarBlogle: As I said when Jeff Lebo was fired exactly four years ago today, Auburn needs to go after a name. That name is Tubby Smith. #wareagle

Also, what is this about?

@JamesCrepea: I've been told Jay Jacobs will NOT address the media until he's hired a new coach.

Ben Howland would be interesting. He got apathetic at UCLA and just let Sean Miller dominate him in recruiting in Cali. That said, he is an elite level coach if motivated. I could easily dig it.

I'd be shocked if we got Pearl. I imagine he is back at UT if they miss the tourny. He probably will be in high demand

He needs to be prominently involved with AU Basketball. Since we are handcuffed in some ways with recruiting, we need to be creative with Chuck. It would never be a dull moment, that's for sure

I am 99% sure we sell out more games in the first year with Charles as HC than in the previous 5 years combined.


I am convinced now, hire Charles as HC, get a great experienced bench coach and let the madness begin

We need to get Charles Barkley involved with basketball like we've gotten Bo Jackson involved with football.

Definitely emailed Jay Jacobs to say we need Charles Barkley in on this. I also mentioned that Ben Howland is not gainfully employed
