You do realize that equaling Bruce’s success at AU in half the time shows that Oats is twice as successful a coach as Bruce. You might want to stop propping up Oats with your comments. You’re making him look much better than Bruce by continuing to try to defend Bruce

Bruce inherited a program that was rated top 275 in the nation, so I cannot give a shite.


Oats inherited four and five stars.

And Bruce had a 5yr head start. Surely Bruce’s accomplishments in Nate’s first 5 years are at least on par with his since he had a 5 yr head start that already included a final 4 run! No way Oats has been better than Bruce the last 5 years.

Yeah not really comparable. Nate’s a good coach and turned Bama around quickly but Bruce had a Tony Barbee mess to clean up. Avery wasn’t much of coach but he brought in some talent for Nate to use and build from.
