SCTiger2011 1,270 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 I dreaded the result of this question when it was first asked. Now, it's a reality and I must say. I DONT GIVE A DAMN. WDE!

AU just holds the tie breaker for the number 1 seed in the tournament. I do think there is a serious chance that Auburn fires Bruce or he leaves. What makes you think that? Is there some new evidence out there? Because if there isn't anything new on Auburn, then Pearl won't get fired. If his firing were to be due to something that's already known he'd have been gone weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Leath intends to talk to Bruce after the season, and I hope that both sides can have a frank conversation. The fact that Bruce and his team had cooperated with NCAA regarding Wiley and Purifoy's suspension has me feeling good that he'll be staying here. I think I can speak for the board that we're more than happy to go through some kind of punishment just to keep him here. He's somebody special. He's going to rewrite a lot of records for Auburn basketball, and he's such a great ambassador to Auburn. I really want to believe Leath will see what he's really worth to Auburn, not just a basketball coach but as an icon that genuinely loves Auburn and represents Auburn to the best of his ability.

People don't get fired because they did nothing wrong and to date, there is no indication that Pearl did anything wrong. Both Pearl's lawyer and the FBI told him to keep quiet until after the FBI was finished. That's what Pearl is doing. If Leath can't understand that, we need a new president at Auburn University.

Punishment for what? The FBI said Auburn University did nothing wrong. The NCAA has cleared Wiley to play next year. There was no recruiting violation and no competitive advantage gained by Person's folly. No, I would not be happy with one thin dime's worth of punishment when we, as a school, did nothing wrong and gained zero advantage from any unseemly actions by Person.

Will you please expound on this comment? Just how is Leath acting that gives you pause? Serious question. I see Leath at basketball games smiling and having a good time. I see Leath in the locker room smiling and having a good time. That just does not fit the profile of someone who is going to fire Bruce. I think it is one thing to say one has a gut feeling that Leath is going to fire Bruce. But to imply there are facts to support that position is a different matter. If one has facts, let’s see them.

I would not call any of these articles I pulled up as facts but I would definitely say they show a president who is not happy with his coach . The fact that our wonderful president would speak out publicly against their coach dumbfounds me. that is something even if he is unhappy with them that you should keep internal. By him bringing it up in public just makes me feel like pearls on a fine line. I most certainly hope I'm wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doc4aday 1,887 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 Coach Pearl is not going anywhere. He will be here for as long as he wants to be. I think we need to put all of the naysayers to rest and enjoy what we have. Leath would be an idiot to let Pearl go. Just the Doc's take on the situation. Relax and enjoy the day!

I have read them before however, a month or more ago. That situation was/is not static. Things have been resolved or Pearl would have been fired back then. EDIT: Readng from the last article, above: "a decision will will be made in the next week or two about his future with the school" Since any number of weeks have passed since that was written, it appears Pearl's position with Auburn is settled and secure.

I have read them before however, a month or more ago. That situation was/is not static. Things have been resolved or Pearl would have been fired back then. I completely agree with this. I remember reading those articles months ago and Wiley’s situation has actually been resolved since then and Purifoy’s appeal process has begun since then. There is obviously some teamwork happening between the team and compliance. Leash tends to be very supportive on social media for Pearl and AU Basketball, maybe as a face-saving kind of thing. I don’t think a guy who didn’t care about what the fan base thought of a coach would be doing that if he was going to fire him. I don’t think we’re even remotely as close to losing Pearl as some people in our fanbase, and MOSTLY everyone outside of our fan base (I.e. “FBI” chants that go on that obviously have no credence anymore since Auburn is not currently being investigated by the FBI for anything) thinks we are. It’s amazing the preconceived notions people get in their heads and then make up about a program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
