Bruce is literally the most powerful person at Auburn. He got in a pissing contest with the university president last year and won. You don't just walk away from that for an unknown.

Bruce also has a marketing and motivation angle right now in taking the underdog Auburn Tigers deep into the tourney, an angle that he wouldn't have at a blueblood.

Bruce is about to be the most revered and accomplished basketball coach in the history of the university which employs him. He will literally be at the top of the list. Don't underestimate the value of that.

This is the last I am gonna say about it, but I hope Nate Oats gets us in a good enough position that when he leaves we can attract another very good proven coach and keep it rolling, then eventually we will have a history of basketball success and coaches will really be wanting to come to Alabama as a destination school.

That's really what Auburn fans should be hoping for with Pearl, the guy isn't old, he is 14 years younger than Coach K, if you think he will be at Auburn more than 2 more years you are kidding yourself.
