For the life of me I can't believe folks want to judge a coach after a year and a half...it's stupid to think you can.

It was a troll that atleast one Bama fan didn't get. Trolls are really all this board is nowadays so it served its purpose.

I've seen this type of thread for forever...even on Alabama boards. Some people actually believe that you can tell after 1 season how successful a coach is going to be. Read your Auburn boards and you'll see the same crap...you know that.

The reason Grant got a sixth year was because the admin was falling all over themselves to extend Grant after that early tournament bid. Turned out to be a hasty and expensive mistake. We won't repeat it. Be patient. After year 3 if we're still struggling, maybe the temperature of CAJ's hindquarters starts to go up but until then, I'll reserve judgment on his court performance.

Off the court, he's kicking Grants arse. He's done a fantastic job of being the face of the program, selling it, promoting it. He's been a great ambassador for the school. No complaints at all there and this was an area where Grant was absolutely horrendous.

Glad you admit these threads are crap. Hope to see you as a Bruce Pearl ally whenever another Bammer dares to throw up Bruce's losing record his first couple years at Auburn.

Of course it's crap. It was a shot at all the "Bruce Pearl Experiment" threads we've had to deal with. It was never serious.

Bruce is y'all's guy, not ours. My first thought would be, if my opponent has a klutz for a coach, why the hell would I want to remind them of it. That's why I wish folks would shut up about Coach O and Gus and just let them alone.

Look at your own boards, pal.
You've had your own folks running him down.

We have a few odd ball posters that expected instant gratification even though it wasn't achievable. And we've been over this with them a healthy amount of times. I'm sure y'all have the same.

Meh I've criticized him some because there have been games that he hasn't done a good job. That doesn't mean that I think he's done a bad job overall. The opposite really.

We get a "opinion on Bruce Pearl" thread way more often than we should on this board specifically.

Some People expected Pearl to take a D2 Roster and make the NCAAT without being able to recruit for two years

Typically it is the people who didn't realize AU had a BBall team and thought hiring someone like Pearl would allow us to be Kentucky
