I think what makes it so hard to swallow is that they all bought in to thinking that landing 5 stars Collin Sexton and John Petty was going to bring the program up out of the ashes overnight. But then Auburn ended up stealing the show with an SEC regular season championship. Never mind that Avery Johnson took them to their first NCAA tournament appearance in 6 seasons. Seeing Auburn make another run in the SEC tournament this year was the final nail in the coffin for the fanbase and they lost their shite, the administration included.

Now they are floundering around with their third coach in six seasons, desperately trying to catch up to the machine that Pearl has assembled.

It's like watching Auburn try to match Saban and his success, but without the 2010 national Championship, Kick Six, etc.

Yeah, how did that Final Four go by the way?

Congrats on making it, and finishing like every other team in the nation save 2.....

Here is to you Auburn,

edit to add- it is good that Auburn has taken up basketball, because their football team is going down the pipes...

Name any other BB loss, besides a few days ago, in AU history that meant anything significant to you.

Dude, it was just a little over a month ago and there were talks of Auburn not even making the tournament.
No doubt a big time turn around after the Kentucky blowout.
I don't necessarily call one very strong month of basketball a "machine".

You're exactly right.

We don't talk about things that happened 9 years ago as justification for anything.

Petty wasn’t a 5 star recruit.

Not really, just made admin more likely to hire a good coach. Enjoyed your ncaa run this year. I see auburn as preseason number 24 next year in hoops so maybe hold the dynasty talk for a few years

UVA was the better team and they did it the honest way. I don't recall UVA coming in these shoe controversies.

let me think about this for a minute.

The favorite sport of the majority of UA fans is football, and we have 5 national titles in 10 years.

I guess the favorite sport of the majority of Auburn fans is now basketball and they have 0 titles ever.

I think we'll survive.

This cock wrangler didn’t know what a basketball even looked like until after Auburn beat Kansas.

Comparing Pearl to Saban...? That’s funny
