The entire history of our basketball suggests otherwise. To flippantly suggest we can easily upgrade the best basketball coach we’ve ever had is dumb, even for you.


I guess it depends on what you consider an upgrade? Would you take a 20 win regular season and multiple wins in the tourney over 25 wins and an early exit?

How about some top 15 recruiting classes? That’s something bama has kicked our arse in and they aren’t exactly a “blue blood”

Once again… just playing devils advocate and sparking conversation. It is the offseason after all. I do believe though it is not crazy to think someone else couldn’t at least sustain our “relevancy” if that’s what we’re paying for now.

I’ll take the guy the consistently wins trophies, has 20+ win seasons and gets us into the tournament even though we may have underperformed there in the past than an unknown situation. It’s not even worth talking about. As far as recruiting, he’s done pretty damn well there considering we’re hindered by a shitty apparel contract.

Not personally. Hard to compare apples to apples but I would put a regular season and conference tourney championship roughly on par with an elite 8 appearance. I would for sure value them over a S16 appearance.

Not sure anyone should get caught up in recruiting rankings with basketball until they figure out a good way to combine transfers into the rankings.

It’s possible but I think it’s hardly probable. Just a ludicrous thought IMO for anyone to even remotely think that Auburn moving on from Bruce would be a good idea.
