Stfu. We can’t even get a full house for a top 10 team. You want us to win but we have zero home court advantage. GTFO. We are lucky a coach of Howlands pedigree is even coaching at a school with such ****** support.

Unless you are in the playoff, going to the NIT is exactly like going to a bowl.

Eat my dick Underdawg you shitastic poster. Auburn will win the SEC this year by minimum 2 games.

Why do you resort to this so much? Do you just hate the world? Can you not have a disageeement with out it? What's you're problem dude? And why would you want to be dickless??

Every time we show up big they crap the bed. It’s getting old. You won’t have that many people at a game until the Ole Miss game. The last game of the year. They have nobody to blame but themselves.


Truth is we use to pack the Hump. Then we fired the best Basketball coach we had ever had. The "whole fan base wanted him gone". Then we stopped showing up because we demanded we win first. We also have not won much since then. Howland just made it to the NIT and then last year the NCAA (lost to liberty).

Now we want to fire this guy when crowds are starting to come back.


We have now entered a pattern of "now or get out". It started 4 years after We fired Stansbury with Mullen. Howland has been here for 4 (in his 5th) and there's rumblings every where. Now we get rid of another after 2 years.

What do you expect and want? Either be patient and allow it to grow or continue the cycle.


In no way shape or form should Howland be fired..... but I know where we are as a fan base.

Last time we had a floor general Stans stabbed him in the back and took over. Stans did ok when he had Kirby to be the real boss, disciplinarian.
Stans was a decent assistant, a great recruiter and a barely marginal head coach.
Howland is by far and away best coach since Williams.

How so? Howland has yet to beat a quality team at home in 5 years.

Stans wasn't a great recruiter. He missed on roughly 35 signees since losing to Xavier. That's not great recruiting.

I don't result to it that much that's just your view of it but when someone tells me I have a shitastic take and am part of the problem my response will always be for them to eat a dick. It's kinda like fighting a future nfl lb you should expect a black eye. When you're rude to someone expect them to be rude back even stronger. It's common sense. I reinforce the rules of it.

Completely ******* ridiculous. Pick any 5-year window of Rick’s time here and it’s better than Howland’s first five years are going to be.

He is doing a decent job for the 3-4000 fans that care. I guess it keeps them entertained between end of football and start of baseball.

I’m just not interested in it because of the tackle basketball they play under the goal and the inability to shoot a thing between 22 feet and 3 feet. Not a player on either team would have survived from fouling out 25 years ago. It’s just not “basketball”. Like I said before, it’s Rugby.
How about if people that don’t like basketball shut the **** up about basketball?

Not exactly a fair comparison when Stans got to follow Williams while Howland got to follow Rick Ray. Even with that massive advantage Stansbury's first four years only produced one more win than Howland's. 79 wins for RS vs 78 wins for BH

Biggest issue I have with Howland is the lack of Offensive production. Most possessions consist of dribbling 4 feet behind the arc, switching and handing off, the point guard or either a big man ending up with the ball, trying to beat the shot clock. That about sums it up. Lot of talent, no skillful way to get the ball in the hands of scorers.

Sad when Carter and 3 point shooters can't even hit one on their home court . Auburn played bad enough for us to win this game .

When we played defense and ran his plays we did well. When our players decided to play NBA style we lost control of the game. Auburn was too talented for us to play man on 3 ball.

We have 4 losses and have played 2 good teams. We aren't likely making the tournament.

But Howland is here as long as he wants to be, unless he completely bottoms out. One day he'll either get this thing rolling or get tired of bashing his head against a wall and head back to the beach.
