Scary to think that Key was one of our top players at one time after watching him at Virginia. Definitely just a role player.

That season was by far Avery’s best coaching job here. We had a team on the cusp of making the NCAAT with Key and Ingram as our team leaders. Looking back that was actually very impressive if I’m being honest.

Bruce isn’t leaving Auburn right now after this run...not for UCLA. The dude damn near cries every time he’s interviewed over his accomplishments at the barn.

If an elite blue blood comes after Pearl a couple of years from now then I can see Bruce leaving but not right now. UCLA is going to have to go mid major.

I said it at the time, he stumbled into one of the most successful strategies in CBB

- Defend the paint with tall rim protectors
- Rebound everything



Just look at Texas Tech, they are in the championship with that strategy

Its amazing how much harder Bennett has him playing. Key has made some nice effort plays tonight.

Key was always a good defender; it's his offense that sucks.

I wonder why kids take three point shots at the end of the game when the game is either tied or they are down by only 1 point. Culver is the best player on the floor; he should have drove the ball to the basket with 12 seconds on the clock...

Auburn has got to be sick knowing they were a missed call from being in the title game and the team that they beat but for the missed call goes on to win the Title.

UVA has a miracle play to go on & beat Purdue in Elite 8, had couple miracles to beat Auburn & nailed a crucial 3 to get this to OT.
After an embarrassing 1st round exit last year they made up for it.

Would make him the 2nd highest paid coach in the SEC. Top 5 nationally, making around the same as Self and Izzo. More really when you add in all the free food.

Should've let him walk. You don't pay that much for those results unless the coaching pool was shallow. UT had options.

Congrats to UVA. Always nice to see an acc school from outside of NC win it.
