not his fault Holloway didn't show up. He was supposed to be a stand out freshman but hasn't done anything for the team

I'll defend Bruce all day every day but I never understand these comments. Bruce builds the rosters. When the players fail, it's ultimately on him.

Aden is far from a lost cause though. He will be fine. I pray sooner than later.

Some of these guys forget how bad we’ve been for most of our history as a basketball program. We've been to the NCAA Tourney 12 times and Auburn has been playing basketball 118 years.

These ARE the good ol days of AU basketball

Hard agree. This is what coaches should run towards, not away from. Bruce is responsible for getting guys on campus but he is also responsible for coaching guys through the struggles they will have.

BP has coached at four schools.

At Southern Indiana, he won .834% of his games.

At Miwaukee, he won .694% of his games.

At Tennessee, he won .704% of his games.

At Auburn, he has won .643% of his games.

He's been a head coach since 1992 and has only had four losing seasons -- his first three at Auburn, and the Covid year.

Everyone should keep in mind we were a missed double dribble call/injury from literally being national champions.

I fortunately have had season tickets a pretty long time. When Coach Pearl was introduced he said to the crowd, if you don't have season tickets you better buy them now, cause you will not be able to get them later.

Now I see waiting lists and people paying to get on those lists.

That is what Pearl has done for Auburn.

quote:
Thanks to incredible fan support, Auburn Men's Basketball season tickets have sold out to Tigers Unlimited basketball donors for the last several seasons. The Tigers Unlimited Basketball Priority List was created to provide an equitable way for fans to access tickets based on availability.

Joining the priority list does not guarantee the opportunity to purchase season or any other tickets.
