Just looking at who is playing and who will be back next year......does not look that encouraging. Still going to have problems scoring and despite a good recruiting class, they are still going to be freshmen...with some of this year's frosh who just can't seem to shoot/score. .

JMO but BP has gotten a very long leash form the AU folks....and there have been too many poorly played games in my view that reflect on effort and discipline....and not just lack of talent. ...thing where the argument that this is just his second season...just does not hold water.

What does he have to do ....and when does he have to do to stay at AU?

[AUDub 11,148]

Just glad we broke 50 and only lost by 10. Thought we might not make it there for a while.

Silly. Nobody with any sense is putting this on Bruce.

Yep

If we let go of Bruce there is a 100% chance we downgrade at HC. And he is ignoring attitude/behavioral issues when evaluating players because thats just how deep this hole that AU bball had become and we need anybody with skills that we can get. The injuries obviously hurt too. He needs more time this is just the start of the journey to becoming an NCAA tourney team.

If he can't get it done, no one we hire will. We need to hang tough.

So he is not the guy recruiting the players and coaching the team.? So who do we put it on...'cause this looks a lot like the. pre_Bruce years to me.

Looking like a much longer road than any of us could have imagined.

I remember seeing predictions from anywhere from an NCAA bid to NIT.

Reality SUCKS!

[TigerOne 1,142]

it wont be that long, next season has great promise. Great talent coming in.

Bruce will get it done no worries, yeah this season is disappointing but it will get better and quickly

[tombigbeetiger 223]

frank martin, at south carolina, is a damn fine coach, and is in his 4th year at USCe....it took him 4 years to build up a good program, and it was in better shape when he took over than AU was when pearl took over, much better shape.....its going to take pearl 4 full years to get AU to the NCAA....be patient....AU64, you want to gripe about a coach, you got the wrong coach to bitch about.....
