I don’t think it had anything to do w what’s going on at L.

It was just a typical trap game after #1 rank and playing a Blue Blood

JGT wrote an article regarding Auburn’s commitment to Bruce.

Some highlighted points here:

The department next week will seek formal approval to move forward with plans to expand/augment the basketball facility so that men's and women's basketball each will have their own space.


• “Auburn's financial situation is much stronger than it was 18 months ago. We're told fundraising for the football facility, which is approximately half-way finished, really picked up and will not be a limiting factor from a financial standpoint.”

“…several donors have approached Allen Greene and the department at large to pledge money for this new/augmented basketball practice space.“

- “We're told that Auburn is prepared to offer Pearl both a raise and extension at season's end, which we expect to be worth somewhere between $5 million and $6 million per season.”

-“For once, the athletic department is united on something: Auburn must do what's necessary to keep Pearl on campus and building Auburn into a consistent national power.”

There's only a handful of coaches in the country that could do what Bruce has done at AU. I'm pretty damn sure none of the rest of them would have had the balls to take on the program with the state it was in when Bruce took it over. Hell, they probably don't have the balls to follow in Pearl's footsteps now. We must pay the man and we must pay him well.

He’s already the 7th highest. If his new deal is in the mentioned range then he will likely be 4th. Even that is a steal.

If he gets to #2 behind Calipari in a new financial package then that is a great achievement for him and Auburn.

He’s top 2 for sure

Jay Wright is 3rd at just over $6mil and Coach K is 2nd at just over $7mil. Obviously K is retiring so we will see what Scheyer makes, but I bet it’s in that same range.

Bruce isn’t going anywhere unless we really mess this up.

I'm still holding my breath. That false prophet other thread gets all the blame if this season doesn't end in a satisfactory manner
