Auburn has been a massive disappointment under Bruce. Bunch of 1st weekend exits sans 1 year.
I don’t see what the difference between him and Frank Martin at South Carolina is

Well... at Auburn he has won every first round game... three out of the four times he's brought Auburn to the NCAA tournament they have lost in the second round - but to say they have been a massive disappointment under Pearl I think is untrue.... but you are absolutely entitled to your opinion

You don't know the difference? Okay I'll show you...
Frank Martin record at South Carolina - 171–147 (79–99 SEC) record
Bruce Pearl record at Auburn - 207 - 116 (86 - 80 SEC ) record

Somewhat agree here, though to be fair to Bruce, overall based on where Auburn was seeded, he should have won 6 NCAA Tournament games and he’s exceeded that with 7.
His four Tournament teams to date:
2018 4-seed: based on seed should have won 2 games but under-performed and won just 1.
2019 5-seed: based on seed should have won 1 game but exceeded expectations and won 4.
2022 2-seed: based on seed should have won 3 games but underperformed and won just 1.
2023 9-seed: based on seed should have lost first round but exceeded expectations and won 1 game.
So Auburn teams have underperformed twice and over-performed twice. They’ve won one extra game based on expectations.
That’s not enormously impressive but it’s above average.

Oh come on. That’s ridiculous. Frank made one NCAA Tournament. If not for Covid, Bruce would be taking Auburn this year to its sixth in seven seasons, and to date has never had a first round exit.

This is fricking retarded. The last NCAA tourney appearance before Pearl was 2003 and had 1 NBA player since then before Pearl. Thanks Quis.
