All of his posts do is just derail any sincere or intelligent conversation regarding Auburn basketball. No point of looking at the board if it’s just people disproving his bullshite posts half of the time. It’s clear now that he’s just trolling because he won’t even respond to the posts where his “points” are completely disproven with actual facts.

Agreed. His “alternative” viewpoints are easily disproven a lot of the time with actual evidence. At this point, he isn’t providing anything useful to the board other than engagement farming.

Didn’t realize this was Aden’s 5th school in 5 years. Seems like Justin Powell all over again. Run from adversity and let people in your inner circle tell you it’s someone else’s fault. I don’t think his career will play out well. I foresee him transferring at least one more time.

Little surprised Michigan took him, but they missed out on another player too so probably made him a bigger priority for them. If he develops a floater and every gains any confidence in his 3 he could be really solid for them. I'll root for some, unlike some other traitors I won't mention lol.

I think Tre will be decent there. His style of play should suit the big 10 pretty well.

I have always questioned Tre’s ability to be a #1 pg because he just isn’t built right to have the explosive first step that’s necessary. Not saying he is fat, just that his stockier build means he has a lot more mass to get moving than most true #1 pg’s. Hard to beat a guy puts in the same amount of speed work when he is 20 lbs lighter than you. Of course, that also applies to cutting and slamming on the brakes for a quick j too. He did fine against the bottom half of the SEC but couldn’t beat the top half one-on-one.

Always appreciated Tre’s work ethic

Agreed, on the work ethic. I just think he was maxed out as far as his potential. He seemingly worked his arse off and still was just a middle of the SEC-caliber pg. seems to kinda prove my point that he went about as far as his body type could take him as a pg on a basketball court. I appreciate him and would have loved to keep him as a #2 pg, just not a #1.

Stidham in particular does a pretty masterful job at getting under our collective skins.


So we don't ban anyone from the board for incessantly trolling and making up shite to derail conversations?

Board has gone to shite

We don’t really ban anyone here. Less than a handful in the 15 years I’ve been around here, though I guess the Aubie board originated around 2011?

I’m also not commending Stidham any. Just stating the obvious. Im not in charge of bans around here.

Part of that seems to be partially due to the fact the mods we have are barely here. Barely see any of them post at all.

Which apparently leads to the common theme of people thinking you are a mod and can fix the issue.


And yeah, the team boards came within the first yearish of me deciding to stop lurking to read threads and actually join TD, so end of 2011 or so I think.

Tre Donaldson was a hard worker to his core man. Showed up early and stayed late. Wish him the absolute best. Holloway however blames everyone but himself for his subpar play and inability to make shots. That dude can kick rocks.

Not if he still can't hit open 3s or layups.

I’m bummed we have such poor offensive coaching compared to them.


Our offensive coaching didn't have jack shite to do with the fact that he couldn't hit wide open shots. Just like offensive coaching didn't cause our WR's to drop easy TD passes last year.
The kid lost his stroke somewhere between AAU and the SEC and never got it back. Maybe the stage is too big for him?

If AH hadn't gone 0-7 (0-5 from 3) we would have beaten them.

He had the 3rd most shot attempts and most 3 pt attempts on the roster. The idea he was cut out of the offense is a little ridiculous. Definitely sensing some immaturity from him.


If we let him shoot any more than he did, we probably would have lost more games based on his shitty %.

Our offense is not suited for guards to suceed. When Aden lights it up at alabama over the next 2-3 years and everyone here wonders how it happened in bewilderment . . . it's called COACHING.


Jared Harper, Bryce Brown, Wendell Green, Zep Jasper, J'Von McCormick come to mind right off the bat.
You are an idiot.

I thought about him right off the bat, but my feeble brain was thinking he played the 3 instead of the 2 (maybe he did fill in there some?). You are correct. Add one more to the list refuting Stidham's idiocy.
