SEC is the toughest conference for a reason. We have solid coaches.

Pearl, Cal, Barnes, Oats, takes the tops spots.
then you have White (sometimes), Musselman, Davis, and Howland are also pretty good. You also have Frank Martin in that mix who can beat you.

He can at home when the refs give AU a +19 FTA advantage.
Otherwise:

At this point, I would probably put Buzz over Frank Martin.

I know it's hard to win at South Carolina, but that Final Four was the only NCAA tournament appearance he has had there. He's past his prime. It's crazy, but he is only 55 years old. He's aged like milk.

I'd love to have BP if Cal left..He would win titles ..he wouldn't have to cheat here...Does anyone think Cal didn't bend the rules before he got here?

Why would he win titles plural when no one else other than Rupp has? I think he would win his one and make 2 to 3 final fours in 8 to 10 years.

I think folks forget he almost died. He had a huge health scare and about nearly left this Earth. He’s done really well all thing considering.

I thought it was Oats? 😆

Last year it was. This year it's Pearl. Alabama has a pretty good recruiting class coming in next year, so the grass might be greener again with Oats. Even though his team is sitting at 7th in the SEC, he plays an exciting brand of basketball that guarantees wins...or something.

I think he's that good...with just a little luck Cal would have 3-4...I'd take a title and 2-3 F4's in 8-10 years though

It's always a "flavor of the season".

Pearl is a hell of a coach, I've always like him.

I think he is a good coach that would be a great replacement after Cal hangs it up. HOWEVER, he's only a year younger than Cal.

I actually thought A&M came out with a better game plan than Auburn.
Click to expand...
That game plan with Auburn’s talent and athleticism, they would have destroyed us.
I’m much more impressed with the coaching job Buzz done. That was a tough game.
Buzz outcoached Cal.
Pearl didn’t. Instead won on the luck of our player’s injuries and a huge FT advantage.

AU probably has a better team than us this year. However, with our starting guards in the game, I think we beat them.
Looking forward to the Kansas game but we will need a really good effort to beat Miss St. They remind me of Auburn.

I like Pearl. He’d kill it here. But also too risky.
Click to expand...
I don’t think there are any more risks. He just got slapped with major violations and received a slap on the wrist. That’s the thing about the ncaa now vs the 80s. I’m not advocating for pearl even though I wouldn’t cry if he was our coach.

Btw 2 of the top 3 teams cheated in massive ways and they are playing ball like nothing ever happened so I doubt flying by the letter of the ncaa law now means anything

Yea he coached Kessler to run Wheeler right into that screen because they were getting killed. Phuck that dude. He’s a immoral, lying, cheating SOB. Mark my words, 5 years from now, he will be gone, program down there in shambles and on probation.

You should consider the refs and the free throw disparity plus if tyty was healthy, we'd probably win.

Just need everything thing to work good just to win these tough games.
