re: 10 Years ago, today

I couldn't believe that we had hired him either. We tended to find some successful mid-major guy so he could come to Auburn and watch his career die.

I figured he would get us back in the tournament, then leave...5 years max and we would cross our fingers and hope to find someone who could continue with some level of success.

Never dreamed that, 10 years and 200 wins later, BP would have a ticket to Neville the toughest ticket in town. I always thought that given a team to support, Auburn would support them in droves, but Barbee took the program to it's lowest point since I've been going to bball games, since 1961.

It took a truly special person to achieve what BP has achieved. We needed him in the worst way, and he needed us then too. Then he fell in love with Auburn. Love Auburn, and it will love you back.
