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.

There are a whole lot of assumptions in that post.

Young? No not really. Three seniors and a junior in the starting line up. That isn't young.
We do not have a lot of soph or juniors though. This is another issue we can attribute to Barbee.
The other coaches see somebody they don't have to worry about on and off the court. Nothing more.
