Would CBP leave Auburn?

I'm sure I will get blasted for this... We need to have learned our lesson from Malzahn regime about giving these wild contracts

It’s not about the contract. It’s about who you give it to. Bruce is certainly worth it.

What lesson can you derive from giving Gus Malzahn a big contract that could even be applied to Bruce Pearl, your program’s best head coach ever 

Is there a single lesson you could even attempt to apply there

BP has elevated the BB program.  No doubt.  But, it had no where to go but up. I can argue that overall Malzahn had as much end result success  as BP.   BP has only got past the 2nd round of NCAA tourney 1 time,  if memory serves.. So, yes he elevated BB more than Gus had to elevate FB, because we had already had more success in FB than BB. But when u compare results during their tenures they are very comparable.

lol bruh no man. This ain’t it. Bruce has had sustained success. And once again for the Love of God stop trying to compare basketball and football! Totally different structured sports. Getting to the tourney is a successful season. Making a lower tier bowl game most years is not.

Yeah. Let's let him go. Half you guys think 20 wins and the making the tournament is a piece of cake anyway.

I never said let him go. But, I don't think throwing the bank valt at him is the answer either. His contact is worth 50 million. Now, upgrading facilities isn't unreasonable

If Indiana wants BP, who does AU go get? And will we have to throw the bank at them?

So, how much  money would be reasonable for AU to pay BP to keep him?

Getting to the tourney is nice. Would also be nice to make some noise once we get there.  68 teams make the tourney.

Of the 67 coaches that get there, besides, ours, who do YOU choose. Don't back off and ask me. I don't want to fire ours.

He’s a top 10 paid coach already. It’s not about money I don’t think. Just having everything in place at his disposal that you would at a basketball first school to compete for championships and recruit at a high level.

Dude, I never said fire the guy. He has a 50 million contract.  I have no idea who they could get. But for 5.5 million a yr . I have to think they could get someone.  If u just want me to throw a name out. Dusty May. I answered your ? . You answer mine

No one. I like ours. I don't believe it's just money. More like what is unrealistically expected and what we can do with money and priorities for recruits and the program. Like shoes. This is what I believe.

I'm all for upgrading facilities,  going with Nike etc....That will benefit BP or whoever is the coach. He has a good enuf contract IMO. It should take him to retirement if he chooses.  Emptying Ft Knox to keep him aint the answer to me.

Whatever. That's not an answer and I'm more than good with it. I don't miss the days I could get a ticket for a a Wednesday night game for 5 bucks and sit wherever I wanted. Have a good night.
