    That's weird. I'm relieved that it's something with my setup and not the site.

     

    Thanks all.

     

    PS: I'm using Firefox. Maybe that's it?

    It works perfect on my Netscape Navigator.  🤷‍♂️

    Apparently Aden Holloway may also end up at Michigan.  Per this article, he was recruited by them out of high school and he has family ties there - his grandfather played football for Michigan and his sister Mila is an incoming basketball signee...

    I thought AH to Michigan was a done deal.

    Honest question, what makes you think Auburn has the foundation to win a national championship next year? Jaylin and Moore are seniors, Broome will probably go pro, more than likely we lose Cardwell and who knows what will end up happening with CBM. KD is a senior but could come back, but he’s….KD. Hopefully Denver and Chaney come back, but a huge chunk of our offensive and defensive production will be gone next year.

    I have no clue who is coming back and not coming back to be honest.  I thought we were losing 2 to eligibility.  
     

    I was really talking about the program’s trajectory into an elite program more than just next year.  But all fair points — I’m just more optimistic about bringing in talent even if we don’t know who the talent is right now.

    #1 seed Virginia loses to #16 seed UMBC in the first round of the tournament.  

    1st half 2nd half Total
    UMBC Retrievers 21 53 74
    Virginia Cavaliers 21 33 54

    2019

    Virginia wins the tournament.  (Horrible call saves them in the Final Four, but’s that not the point here.)

    Auburn has the foundation to win the national championship.  We’ll see who returns and who Auburn picks up, but there is no reason to panic.  
     

    I’m bummed about yesterday like everybody else.  I was thinking this was a Sweet Sixteen team.  Didn’t happen.  But I don’t believe this is the ceiling.  Auburn is a program that has a great chance to make deep runs in the tournament.  
     

    Feel like the puzzle is missing a piece or two — but very close.  But I hear ya’ll, a superstar PG wouldn’t hurt.   😉

    I’d lean that way as well. But I could see a conversation playing out like this with a delusional Bama fan:

    Bama fan: You barners can’t hold onto a coach more than 2 years.

    Auburn fan: Actually, Auburn has only had 5 coaches this century. That’s 5th lowest in the conference, and is even below Bama. You’ve had 6 coaches.

    Bama fan: 1, 2, 4, 3… wait. You’re counting Mike Price. He never even coached a game. 
     

    Auburn fan: Okay bammer. Then you’re tied with us. Either way, we haven’t gone through more coaches than you have in this century.

    Before broaching the topic with the Bama fan, lure them in with Austin Davis shouldn’t be listed as an Auburn OC since he didn’t coach a game.  After hearing the Bama fan passionately argue that he should count, nod in agreement and you bring up this conversation.   😎

    Don't get me wrong, I do NOT think Freeze was the thorn in McGriff's side at all. 

    I think McGriff had issues with Roberts and based on Roberts tweet.... he had issues with the overall leadership, guidance, egos, and communication deficiencies in the program.  Roberts even mentions "hypocritical leadership"?.?.?  Like where the heck does that come from?   

    Yep — he posted his top ten list.  I just don’t think Roberts should rush 2 conclusions.
