If the program was going in the right direction, shouldn't we win the occasional road game against decent SEC competition?
We lose against every decent team that comes to Auburn Arena. And we beat the really bad ones. And then we pretty much lose exclusively on the road.
This is progress?

Can't always judge it be win-loss record. This team is better than their record and they are young. Most want Barbee fired because they think we can get Pearl. If Barbee is let go, we'll get another mid major coach and have the same discussion 4 years from. Looking for instant success and NIT or NCAA tournament berth while building a program basically from scratch is a little too optimistic. Programs like Kentucky should have a quick lease on a coach because of their tradition. Auburn doesn't have a basketball tradition. Barbee is trying to build it. He's finally got al the players to buy in to his program. Other coaches see it. None of those coaches were praise Barbee last year or years before that.
