Auburn has got to be sick knowing they were a missed call from being in the title game and the team that they beat but for the missed call goes on to win the Title....

I wonder why kids take three point shots at the end of the game when the game is either tied or they are down by only 1 point. Culver is the best player on the floor; he should have drove the ball to the basket with 12 seconds on the clock......

Being that it will take an announcement, I would not be surprised if it is Bucky. Pettway will be the holdover. If it is those 2, along with Hodgson, you may have the youngest P5 staff in the nation. I believe all 3 assistants will bring something to the table. ...

That's why I posted this. I may be way out there; only time will tell, but I said earlier when we were first posting about changing coaches that I thought Oats was special. The guy went to the ...

I agree; he should not do it that way. Oats should stick to his core principles; it will stop coaches from trying to shop their players. I don't think Trendon will go anywhere just because his high school coach will get a job. Trendon is not one of those inner city kids with no male leadership. He h...

Yall might think what I am about to say sounds crazy, but do not be surprised if Alabama does not make some serious noise next year, assuming Kira and Trendon come on board. I truly believe Oats is one of those special coaches that come along once every decade. He will have us in the NCAAT next year...

Texas Tech, [b]Auburn[/b], Virginia and Michigan State in the Final Four. There are no blue bloods save Michigan State. The TV ratings, which are now the highest ever, will probably take a dive. Auburn and Michigan State are the only 2 teams that play an exciting brand of basketball. Texas Tech is b...

Auburn is riding an unbelievable high. They are playing like the last time I saw them play Alabama in Auburn. They were tenacious on defense and they were firing shots up with impunity and hitting most of them. They look like a team of destiny, but it will be incredibly difficult to pull it off with...

I think its Hodgson as his Associate HC, Pett and Ya (until he can do better than Ya or Ya all of a sudden starts to successfully recruit). Pelphrey is done. He can probably get a gig coaching some team like Coastal Carolina or a SoCon school. If they are able to pull Trendon, the fledgling staff wi...

Auburn does not excite me and I am only catching the last part of the game, but I am good with them making the Final Four. To do it without their best overall player is unimaginable. They are a team of destiny. This is going to make the rivalry even more intense. Auburn making the Final Four is goin...

Herb is a TO machine. Avery was trying to play some of the guys like they would be expected to play in the NBA. I'm sorry, but play people in their positions. If a kid is just not good at handling the ball you should just not let him handle the ball. If he is a mid-range guy, let him be that. Do not...

The same reason Steph Curry didn't have a lot of offers: he is not very athletic, not a pure point guard, not long and his defense needs lots of work. He can, however, light it up and has good handles. Rankings and offers seem to have more to do with the freakish athleticism and raw skill set than w...
