Steven Pearl trying to stare down the ref. Maybe you should coach how to defend the 3 Steven, They have made damn near 15 so far.

We have too many trying to be the hero tonight and it ain’t working. We need to move the ball around.

"Coming into this game our 3 point defense was 318th out of 350
we are proving that it's not a fluke"

Found this

Overton is doing his part keeping us in range. Problem is those are pointless if no run is ever started.. They're similar to solo home runs while down 10.

I'm mostly ignorant about the intricacies of offensive basketball but it's night and day watching them with the ball vs us. Of course they have the luxury of playing against our defense

Yeah singlemalt.. I'm sure he hasn't been drilling this shite into their head all year. The players are pathetic.

I think NIL is killing the game.

I don’t see much intensity anymore with college sports. Why go all out to prove you’re NBA worthy when you’re already making 7 figures

I really don’t like this roster but Steven isn’t even almost getting the best out of them for the last 3 weeks.

I get why people are on Steven but I’m not sure this would have gone much better under Bruce. As great as Bruce was even he wasn’t incapable of suffering a “rebuild year” from time to time.

Again, Shariffe year as an example. We were dreck that year and that was an all Bruce roster just like this one is.

You’re not wrong and we will see how it goes next year but at the same time I’m not sure I ever saw Bruce “lose the team” like Steven seems to have. Now Bruce is a HOF’er so it’s a high standard but we gotta see much more next year

Nope. We have really regressed. I’m sure a lot of has to do with we have no real bigs and not good depth but you have to get more out of our talent. It’s obviously there but we can perform at a high level often and certainly not from behind.

Yeah. Steven gets an opportunity to prove this is an aberration rather than a pattern.

I can’t remember any Auburn team missing as many shots by airball when taking 3s. Tonight was bad

This is my issue right now with him. I was pretty vociferous in defending his coaching earlier in the year, but he's been getting out coached fairly consistently since the Texas game. Particularly at the ends of games. In the Kentucky game we basically won because they sucked even more than us rather than us taking it.
