I like how they’re all the same size on the fake album cover, but in reality Stapha has an easy 7 inches on Jared

AUBURN
Current record: 11-1
Projected regular-season record: 16-15
Even amid an FBI probe that seemingly had thrust coach Bruce Pearl onto the hot seat, the Tigers are off to an incredible 11-1 start. However, Auburn's non-conference strength of schedule which ranks 199 could prove to be fool's gold, too.
The Tigers' biggest win to date is over a solid Middle Tennessee team on a neutral, but they also lost to Temple in their toughest test of the season thus far - a team that will be a borderline NCAA Tournament team.
With no Austin Wiley or Danjel Purifoy now or for the foreseeable future, quality depth is also a concern and it could give the Tigers fits in the heart of their SEC slate.
AU hoops in top 5 of the RPI. Sweet baby Jared, this is fun.
Looks like Leath has learned where his bread gets buttered.
Did this one get discussed by the psycho conspiracy boogs?
What is the conspiracy on that one?
There is a lot of support for Bruce in the replies. Was that the 2nd game in a row with no Bruce mention?
Another win, another no mention of Bruce by our stud AD. But today Leath mentioned him. I wonder if Leath will let AG know it’s cool to congratulate Bruce now.
This is the one I meant to post, @demeat. More fodder for those that think BRUCE might not be here next year. I am fairly sure this season has already solidified BRUCE'S position but it's a lil weird. I think @MomentInTheSun Is probably right and BRUCE will start getting the Twitter love from his new boss soon.
I mentioned this after the first game he went to. It was bullshit IMO to omit Bruce but @jeramye assured me it was an oversight. Now we are on what I think is Auburn’s 3rd win since he has been named the AD and Still no Bruce mention. Yet Gus says congrats to Bruce.
I just looked through his tweets going back several months. Not once did he congratulate a single coach specifically. You’ve really outdone yourself with this tin foil hat malarkey just because you don’t like the guy.

^^^Indifferent to the hire^^^
We have a guy that is up for coach of the year and you want to use this past tweets as a barometer as to weather or not he should give some recognition to Corch Pearl. Even LEATH is giving him a shoutout. Screw consistency, it would be nice to see our hero get a shout out. Especially when it seems people are out to fire him.
Who is this guy and why is he here?

Some guy that is indifferent to the AD hire
If you are going to say he hasn’t mentioned a coach a single time after reviewing months don’t you think would should at least make it 30 days before seeing a coach mentioned?
I get you worship Thrust and Slippy, I like them too, but for fvck sakes, I love Bruce and I want Bruce at AU for a long time. If I was Bruce I would want some love from my AD while my job was on the line. Is this too much for you to comprehend? I don’t think Bruce cares really, but people are noticing the AD never mentions him. It does create a cloud of uncertainty.
This weird obsession with a social media mention just passed Jake Paul or Logan Paul as the most lame thing on the Internet.
1) Thrust brought it up (many people find it to be odd, not just Thrust and I)
2) Slippy Jimmy told a falsehood (AG does mention coaches)
3) Seems AG can’t do anything wrong at all in order to justify your position that he was a great hire simply because I questioned it.
I could just sit back and be like others and accept everything at face value but life and this board would become pretty boring pretty fast. I think it is good to have differing opinions. Hope you have a great day!
War Eagle!!
You are quickly becoming the rice of this board. Seriously.
Can we let him officially start his job here before we decide he doesn’t want to support Bruce? He doesn’t officially begin until sometime in February. And even if this is a calculated move by Allen, do you blame him for coming into this situation cautiously?
Auburn up to 5 in RPI.
I said he would be like this towards Bruce, at the time Jeramye told me he thought it was an oversight. However we have the hottest team in the country. Ignoring Bruce isn’t going to work. Look at AG’s twitter. People keep bringing it up.
He was introduced as our AD. Who cares about his formality start date, everyone views him as our AD now. Now that Leath has given him a shout out, I have ZERO doubt that AG will soon mention Bruce in the tweets. It is sad IMO that pressure will cause him to mention Bruce.
This may be one of the dumbest internet arguments I’ve ever read. Who the fvck cares what our AD tweets about. We are potentially going to win 1-3 games in the tournament after not making the tournament in 16? years. Bruce ain’t getting fired unless there is no other choice.
Yeah I haven’t seen one this bad since rice was on the prowl

Okay, I am down for a truce for Bruce. We will no longer argue about this stupid issue. We are about to be on top of the college basketball world!!

Prediction: Within two weeks you will have another awful take on the new athletic director that is based on something as flimsy as menchies on Twitter
I have entered into an truce for Bruce therefore I have no response to this troll post. Hope you have a great day in Woodstock.
Kentucky and Bam....
Both teams are starting to figure it out I think. Kentucky is going to be very difficult. Last night they went off on WVU. Bam looked really good too! That 4 game stretch is going to be hell (UK, Bam, USC, UG). I thought the SEC showed up in the Big 12 challenge. I was impressed.

I don’t see anyone coming in the Clam and beating us. We run UGA and Scar out of their own gym 9/10. We have them completely outclassed.
1) Cool, @ThrustMaxwell doesn't do 47 posts arguing with literally anyone and rehashing every point 17 times so while I disagree with him I don't feel like I have to stop reading threads because he doesn't kill them the same way you are here
2) Cool, nice catch by you I guess.
3) My posiition was never that he was a great hire so you are now just as guilty as you accuse Slippin Jimmy of being in #2. I'm also sure he'll do stuff wrong because everyone does. He may even screw up big stuff. But you've been obsessing over his twitter feed and mention of someone by name like you are Nicholas Cage in one of those National Treasure movies. Are we gong to do this after every single game?
Great post! But it came after my truce for Bruce so I will not engage.
I did notice @captAUmerica21 brought up 1999 vs this team. I think it is too early to go there. We took down some badass teams. I think that team’s peak was AU vs Kentucky I think the following year. It was an amazing victory!
We keep on Boogin this squad could equal or surpass the 98/99 squad. We played a tougher OOC this year. @UT probably a better win than any the 99 club had. 30 wins is a legit possibility.
What the UK home win the 99/2000 season? That win is probably a biggest home win ever. BEMC was so freaking packed. All the steps were full of students sitting on them. It was WILD!!
