When I watched KY play last night I said then that I hope we don't have somebody shoot like that against us. And damn. I can't help but wonder if CBM on him would have made a difference. As Cole said, even if he misses just a couple of those shots, that would have been huge. But despite CBM & that guy's big night... The turnovers. Missed free throws. And can't get a layup to fall. Sometimes it really seems like there really are basketball gods who really have decided against you. I'm a little different than some of you regarding our guards next year. I hope Aden stays & develops his considerable skills. Same for Tre. Seems to me they have talent so that with development they could be really good. And hopefully smarter after going through this year & learning from it (I hope). Look at Broome's development this year. Huge. And I hope CBM will not want to leave Auburn under these circumstances. The thing about crushing losses is that returning & getting a big win is even sweeter. I hope they'll want to stick together & work together to get such a big win. Yep this one will hurt more tomorrow and Sunday after we see the results from this weekend. Won’t get any better as the teams left head to sweet 16 and beyond.

I'd be surprised if CBM did. We desperately need to upgrade our guard play. I just don't see it with Holloway and Tre is very inconsistent, to say the least. You have to upgrade the PG position and like YESTERDAY. Tre might take a leap but he's still a bigger PG with little quickness. We can't keep trying to make combo guards into PGs at this level. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think of one.... I like the small guards but only if they can shoot and actually be a threat to get down hill. Sure would be nice to get some but I won't hold my breath. So many unfortunate things since 2019. Okoro lead team seemed to be clicking and then Covid hit. He was able to secure Cooper but not without problems. Then he was in and out of the lineup. I guess he had Scoot but changed his mind and Westry didn’t work out to name a few Edited March 23 by e808 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was in and out of the lineup so much that year Yeah, would have been interesting to see what that team with Okoro would do...Cooper team? Probably nothing. We were not good at all and Flanigan was...terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s clearly had a big time problem with adjusting to college ball. I guess after a season of taking the shots you expect to go in, it compounds. He didn’t have good body language, but I always felt like he competed hard. Just was not mentally in a position to help the team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t say for sure that it was. Maybe it wasn’t. But I will say with confidence that this was the second worst showing of Auburn this year. We beat them 9 times out of 10. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westry being cooked really hurt the guard rotation then and now. Perfect height and frame for what we have all wanted. Dude is pretty much finished with basketball in general though - his knee cap is still a problem even now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that’s the three I’m aware of. Then they’ll push at least one of the guards out (directly or indirectly) to find a real facilitator.

Most times the refs don't throw the player out of the biggest game in their live 2 minutes in unless there's a sucker punch involved. They might when he's been playing dirty all year and probably gained a reputation for it among the refs. Refs throwing him out was entirely CBM's fault. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheap seats 40 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 I’m so disappointed because I watched every game and I know Auburn is capable of playing so much better ball and they have been looking really good as of late. Getting bounced by UCONN would have been much easier to stomach. I’m glad I didn’t go to Spokane. That being said I really enjoyed watching this team this season.

KansasTiger 3,261 Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 We need a true PG, we need CBM shipped off to his fourth school in four years, we need KD gone (something ive wanted for a long time), and we need a transfer 4 and 5. Ever since 2018, BP has been more miss than hit on his guards, and it's hasn't been all that close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
