Exactly. We can’t afford to do nothing. Giving AU and the SEC another season to distance themselves.
I agree. We sat on our hands or else we would have had Pearl. Battle kept Grant around even though the writing was on the wall. Battle's dumb arse didn't even want to fire Grant at the end. Grant basically had to tell him t do it. fricking idiot

Avery hustled us and all the kids he recruited for money. Used his success from having Dirk in his prime. Remember him saying I think I can coach I have a NBA coach of the year award. Some straight bullshite.

If we don't turn it around they'll both leave the state

What upsets me is that if we had a coach wr would be really good with all of the talent we have and are going to have.

We're a golf school anyway. Justin Thomas just shot a 62. He set a new course record

If we retain Avery, next season Mississippi State and Missouri pass us for sure. Possibly Vandy too. I don’t know about others. We can’t afford to stand pat.

I'm not a betting man but I'm willing to bet we get that class in 2019, we just need a product that won't cause those kids to regret coming here. Crean would be a great hire , although his last couple years at Indiana make me uneasy. I'm like George , just sick of starting over.

I'd rather take a chance with Crean than sit stagnant with Avery. I'm sick of this shite

Guess we won't hear anything about Coleman Coliseum, since we may be a year away from firing our buffoon of a head coach.

We went to Gainesville and started on like a 26-4 run....but still lost by double digits.

Byrne already said publicly that we would hear something about Coleman after the season was over, so I don’t think that’ll change

Just think about this:
Auburn basketball got Bruce Pearl, a brand new arena, and confetti is falling in their arena right now bc they just won the SEC championship. They’ll also be a high seed in the NCAA tourney.
Alabama loses a 5th straight game and shows no signs of getting better. Probably going to miss the NCAA tourney once again.
Greg Byrne needs to act fast

Anything from our media members? Just curious if anyone is leading an uprising yet or bashing Avery and Byrne

If we keep Avery, might as well sign him to a long term contract in order to remove all doubt that the administration doesn’t care about basketball.
Right now, there is not one good reason to keep him.

This is 100% correct. There isn't a single positive. Nothing. We keep him and it just sets the program farther back. Just fire him and get it over with

I just saw a gofundme for Avery's buyout.

Posted on 3/3/18 at 4:44 pm to Bamafan15
It's not the arena...it is the Product

Make sure he takes Avery Jr with him.
