Well I had to google what ama means, so I better stay out of this. 😎

Seems like an odd time to transfer, I mean if wanted to do that it probably should have been done earlier. I dunno, maybe it doesn’t matter, just logistically it seems weird. 

Not for me, and probably a couple million more. 

Gotta be Jackson and Shelling for me. There have been some good combos but when I saw the thread title they are the first ones that came to mind. 

Well I’ll be that guy…..what he do?

Silly me, I clicked to read about basketball.  Continue with your movie reviews.

Pays to have a good attorney, that is proven time and again. This whole thing has been a incredibly tragic event. It’s  still hard to accept and probably always will be. 

With this team that Bruce is putting together and the home crowds that will finally be back, Auburn Arena is gonna be a madhouse. 

Man this kid is dynamite, I don’t care if he’s considered small or not he’d have a spot on my team.

I think everybody should just accept there is vital stuff to this situation that we don't know about. It's not going to make sense unless people know the whole story

This post should be pinned and posted in all the forums as the benchmark for common sense.

I hear you and I really want this to be true, but... man he needs to be better. One of the last games of the season he was 0-4 with one missed dunk, two missed layups and one jumper that missed everything. Also fumbled some decent feeds. He would have to rebound like mad and block a lot more shots to make up for that sort of offense. It's like playing 4 on 5. 

Yep, just being born really tall doesn’t cut it. I’m fine either way, but there is no doubt in my mind we could find a stronger player to fill his spot. 

Would not have been my first choice but an excellent hire nonetheless IMO.  Another fine job by Greene and company. Nothing is guaranteed even with a rock star hire, I’m good with it. 

If he were my son and his injury was/is as serious as we are led to believe, I’d want him closer to home I’ll tell ya that. It’s not like he grew up wanting to go here and there is no direct link to AU other than wanting to play for Bruce.  There was an unexpected variable thrown in to the mix and things changed. I think it’s as simple as that. Heck I’d be heading closer to home too. This isn’t  your normal transfer situation. Hopefully folks will use their common sense and see this for what it is. Good luck to the kid, I’ll be pulling hard for him to make a full recovery.

Just Bc a guy isn’t a “big name” doesn’t mean he won’t be successful and become one. All these great position coaches started and made their names somewhere. From things I’ve read up on him, I think this a really good hire.

What other schools were bidding for his services? That’s another way to look at it. Maybe we are just smarter than everyone else though. 

What a let down from the names being thrown out. Feel free to spin this one however you want. 

Well the star gazers aren’t gonna like this class at all. 

Gonna end up being the beatdown most predicted it to be. We aren’t in their league.

I volunteer just ask!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You gonna be able to make it to this one?

It’s so cool being relevant enough to be a part of these high profile tournaments. Bruce is the frickin man. It really is remarkable what he’s done here. 

Excellent point on the formations Chad used against UK that we haven’t seen since. I was pretty stoked seeing new alignments and motions we’ve not used before and we seemed to have success with them as well. We were more creative and clearly were not running the same ole crap. 

Holy shite!! That is all.  

Man HBC not punting was absolutely awesome. I remember his post game where he just flat lined it to the reporters about it and pulled no punches. Miss that dude on the sidelines and his one liners. 

72 nailed this one in respect to Bostic and his legacy. I think it is simply an odd timing situation with him. It was weird with the end of Coach Dyes tenure and the tv blackout season. Pre-internet, pre-social media, all that stuff. Bostic isn’t mentioned as much as others but it isn’t and should not be a reflection on his ability or greatness. 

When we flip this guy, I do hope some of you on the ledge decide to come on back and enjoy yourselves.
