Avery Johnson needs to realize that he's not being paid almost 3 million a year to coach an Upward Basketball team with his son as a budding superstar.

Grow up and bench your son, stop playing 10 people, and make the tournament or go somewhere else.

Are you guys seriously going to be surprised when we miss the tournament this year? We aren't going to win on the road in the SEC playing 10 guys.

10 percent. I think it would be a mistake to fire him. Need to show coaches they will get a fair shake to build a program here. But I still think we will make the tournament this year

Pearl had just finished his first year at Auburn when we hired Avery.

I always assume we will lose when we play at their gym. Place is cursed for us.

2002 and 2007 aren't that long in the past. Our track record with the NCAA doesn't really make it a good idea to hire coachest with a history of getting in trouble.
