How do you get a guy like that stronger? His bench press must look like a crane raising and lowering stuff. (small stuff)

I heard he maxed out at 135 just last week. You take those weak comments back!

Coach Pearl will be completely bald with this core returning. All exhibit extended periods (some in unison) of playing completely out of control. Hoping the power forward Spencer comes in ready for contact so Bowers will have a compliment on the boards.

Mason is going to have to play lights out because we have no consistent point production returning.
Even if he could average 24,25 points per game...where are the other points coming from?

Not free throws.

Mason's light is out. He's gone for the year I heard.

The out of control stuff really does frustrate me. They can play well, but for stretches of the game it's like they decided to go out and play pickup games on asphalt.

Mason should be gone after this year. He's played 3 full seasons prior to this one.

Geez, what's the early O/U on total wins for next season?

Did Auburn really just lose to the worst team in the SEC, thus solidifying themselves again, as the worst team in the SEC?

Yeah, but they played hard.

This is the first losing season for Bruce Pearl as a head coach.

We played an inter squad game?

Pearl knew it was bare.

But I bet he looks back and says DAYUM.

He has the players working hard and help is on the way. Several of the current players will fit in well with more talented players, we just have an all supporting cast right now.
