Why would he?

Malzahn is the perfect coach for Bruce Pearl IMO. Head is still on his shoulders & I feel like he understands the bottom line is they can work to each other's benefit.

Semi OT but Mamadou Ndiaye has been hired as an assistant coach at GT. He has been on staff with Coach Ellis at Coastal Carolina and got an interview with Pearl for a spot on our staff.

I am very happy for him. Mamadou was always one of my favorites and he was always a gentleman off the court.

Nah, dual sport guys. How would recruiting basketball players affect football recruiting on contact limits and such? Just curious if anyone knows the specifics. I'm not really up on the recruiting rules.

I would think that there is some rule to stop that but who knows.

Auburn will play an OOC game @Colorado next year and there is also a strong possibility that we are part of ESPN's 24 hours of basketball to tip off the 14-15 season. Game would likely be on the road against a yet to be determined opponent.

-AU's game a part of the ESPN's 24 hours tip off special will be versus a top 25 team and is expected to be on the SEC Network
-wants 1 top 25 game at home this year but knows it will be tough to get quality teams to come to AU to AU in the first year

From a very good source we are also trying to finalize a home and home with Gonzaga with us playing on the road and we are most likely going to play in the Las Vegas Classic.
Night and day how much different our OOC schedule will be this year as opposed to last. If everything works out this is what we currently are looking at.
Nov 14th home opener opponent TBD
Dec 3 @Texas Tech
@Clemson date TBD
@Colorado date TBD
@Gonzaga date TBD
Las Vegas Classic is a 4 game tourney with the 1st 2 games most likely played @home and the final 2 games played in Vegas. Last year it was played from Dec. 16-23
