The one who got away
Hey everyone. Based wholly on a suggestion from Jet, I watched the final 5 minutes of the UTEP-Houston game. I couldn't help but notice that Kelvin Lewis, the former Auburn guard, scored 28 points in the Cougars' win.
They're headed to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 1992.
Auburn is not headed to the tournament.
Lebo lost a ton of talented guys during his six years on the Plains: Lewis, Marco Killingsworth, Lew Monroe, Toney Douglas and Josh Dollard among others. That's a great starting five right there.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 349 of 349
Now it's time to heat my lunch.
Well my bracket is filled and I am ready for the games to start. No peaking yet I don't want the laughing to start before the games begin.
THT go ahead and fill out a bracket. You can always pick Duke to win it all.
The more I digest the coach situation, I believe it will come down to Sam Mitchell and the UTEP guy and the UT assistant.
I think AU can get aany of them for $1.2 million per year.
I don't keep up with basketball. What other schools are we competing with for a new bball coach?
Just got a call from the family ... they are at the Varsity.
They'll find their clothes on the sidewalk when they return to the Gump.
If the trash folks haven't picked up by then.
Jet- That food is nasty. I avoid it at all costs. Be glad you don't have to ride 2 plus hours back with them from it. No telling what the odors will be that are associated with the Varsity.
I ate there once. I love a good hot dog. That's why I only ate there once.
If you're going to eat a dog, it's worth the extra 5 hour drive from Atlanta to Zack's in Burlington, NC.
yeh, ditto what Eddie said
Jet - c'mon now. You know Varsity is over rated. Chris' on Dexter in the Gump is better and it's not really a close race.
so UTEP is a 12 seed facing 5 seed Butler on Thursday in San Jose, CA.
I believe that is an afternoon game. If the higher seeded team wins, there is a 10:30 pm flight from SJC to ATL...just sayin.
Eddie - As is you needed another excuse...
WTC, I really do not want an assistant coach at this point.
Norm- The link didn't work, but I've already been looking into that Marathon. Problem for me is that it is in football season, like October 2nd or 3rd I believe. Running down there is so easy because it is so flat. I would go to the parks a half a day come back and run almost 6 miles and then go back out to the parks with relative ease. They had a princess half marathon when I was there just over a week ago and they do a lot of fun things along the run from what I could notice. Of course I'm heading back this weekend for some more running and play time. Still wish I was running the ING.
But I can have Chris' every day. Fried peach pies ... Onion rings ... Frosted oranges ... Yum. Their dogs are OK.
www.disneywinedinerun.com
Yeah, it's 10/2 which equates to AU v LaMo. I think I may make the trip and do that race and work in the first Disney trip for F4*. I'm registered for ING but will make my final determination later this week if I'll actually participate. My energy just hasn't returned as quickly as I'd like, I'm getting tired way earlier than I figured I would.
I've heard that We may go hard after Tubby Smith. I think he would be a good hire. He knows the south well and he has won pretty consistently everywhere he goes. The UK fans were just too hard on him in my opinion.
Norm- Let me know if you run it. I've been on the fence about it, but if you run, I'm sure I would follow suit. This is the first time they have held this particular race and it will be the first half marathon at night down there to my knowledge. Seems like a lot of fun.
Eddie - if you're a betting man, put your $ on me running it. Hot Wife doesn't run much anymore so is interested in the 5K and F4* could do the Dash which he'll win easily (or else). My running partner has run at least once in every Disney event at World or Land so she'll go too and her husband'll do whatever it is he does during races.
Cincy, from your pictures, you don't look like you need to lose 25lbs! I, on the other hand, need to lose twice that! Why is it so easy to put it on, but so dang hard to get it off??
Jet, do you mind sharing who you chose to win it all?
For those watching "The Pacific" on HBO...
Just an FYI, but one of the main characters on there, Eugene Sledge, is an Auburn man. After the war, he attended school there and graduated, and perhaps stayed on a while longer as an assistant.
He kept a hauntingly good diary of his time fighting in the Pacific. Ken Burns also featured him heavily in his documentary series "The War". Sledge was from Mobile.
Bro - I caught it last night but certainly didn't know that tidbit. Sadly, I think if that war were fought now, the outcome would be vastly different. That's certainly not meant as a knock against the caliber of the individuals wearing the uniforms or those in support roles. They're the best. It is however intended as a knock against the government, media, and general population as a whole.
I want to go home now. Why won't they let me?
NINE days 'til football :-)
9 days till ..... spring practice?
just caught up on Pawlowski's guys result from the weekend. That kinda stinks.
t minus 10 minutes
I want to see that but sadly HBO is not one of the 20 channels I get free, and won't be one of the 80 channels I can afford, so I won't be seeing it.
I guess I'll have to wait till it comes out on DVD.
we made it!
I just dropped wifey off in the ATL for her spring break. Now I'm sitting at Cactus car wash on Ponce de Leon getting her car washed.
I don't get a spring break, and she certainly wouldn't wash my car... How is this fair? I say I should get points for this, major points.
Miller, say it ain't so. Everyone in these here parts knows better than to use Cactus on Ponce. Good luck.
But, it's not fair.
Has Feng shown up here since Jay G added the location thing on the front page?
I'm flying to Houston from Nashville and I forgot how much southwest is the greyhound of the skies. There are some funny looking people at my gate.
Really fat guy in a tshirt that was way too short and was yelling into his phone with his mouth full of a whopper was especially not enjoyable.
It was a UAT tshirt wasn't it?
Miller - I was kidding, I have no information about that place or location.
yall see this?
DALLAS -- Auburn's Ken Rice, a two-time First Team All-America (1959-60) defensive lineman, is one of 77 players and seven coaches who comprise the 2010 Football Bowl Subdivision Ballot for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame, the National Football Foundation (NFF) announced today.
congrats big Ken. he was a beast in his day.
someone help me out here, what ever came of the rumour about Newton getting hurt or having some kind of surgery?
it was on AU AthDept home page last week. I'm not a Tar Heel for not alerting the Hotties, I'm just an ordinary heel.
the Ken Rice story, that is.
i'm a little behind THT. i just saw it today about Rice. i'm so busy these days i've been missing lots of stuff.
Stu, congrats ..losing 10# per mo. is solid. Eddie is right ..make it a life change.
Newton injury = a quickly dispelled interweb rumor
1997-1998 35-4 1st NCAA Champions
1998-1999 28-9 3rd NCAA Elite Eight
1999-2000 23-10 T-1st NCAA 2nd Round
2000–2001 24-10 T-1st NCAA Sweet Sixteen
2001–2002 22-10 T-2nd NCAA Sweet Sixteen
2002–2003 32-4 1st NCAA Elite Eight
2003–2004 27-5 2nd NCAA 2nd Round
2004–2005 28-6 1st NCAA Elite Eight
2005–2006 22-13 6th NCAA 2nd Round
2006–2007 22-12 4th NCAA 2nd Round
The number to the right is the teams conference finish.
If an Auburn coach had the previous results how happy do you think the fan base would be? What if we could get that guy to be our next coach would you take him?
Tubby Smith is a fine coach, but not sure I want him at Auburn.
I'm guessing Tubby Smith on the resume. I'd be happy despite what Jet says :).
With all due respect to Tubby, who I was always a big fan of, those stats are kind of underachieving for Kentucky, bar his first season using Pitino's players.
Never made another Final Four. Came close a few times, but never did it. And four second round exits doesn't cut it at Kentucky.
It represents monumental success at Auburn, but not Lexington.
I'm not saying he is my 1st choice but I believe he would probably set some coaching records before all was said and done. I like the fact that he has SEC experience. He has major tournament experience. If he had been at any other school he would probably still be in the SEC.
Ebro, that is what I am getting at. I think he would be a good hire for Auburn. He would be a legend around Auburn if he put up those kinds of numbers.
Offtopic
NOT FOUND
ERROR 404
But that is like saying if Spurrier could do at USCe what he did at UF he would be a legend. The sad truth is he can't, and I don't think Tubby could do here what he did at UK.
That being said I think he could be successful by Auburn standards.
CHB...the way I'm looking at it is that if Tubby sort of underachieved at Kentucky, he might do so at Auburn.
Well, I guess you can really underachieve at Auburn given our expectations, but I don't think the results he got at Kentucky would necessarily be the same at Auburn.
Not that Minnesota is a basketball power house, but he his three years there haven't been a rip roaring success. It took a crazy Big Ten tourney run to get into the field this year. Plus, Tubby is getting on up there in years. How much passion does he have to take on a project at Auburn that needs a lot of energy?
Like I said, I like Tubby, and I wouldn't lay in the fetal position if he was hired, but he's wouldn't be close to the top of a list I was putting together.
CHB - www.lamebook.com
I can agree ebro and wake. I know he wouldn't be able to do the same here as he did at UK. I feel the same about the fetal position. He would be in my top 5 choices.
That's top 5 that I think we could get.
I told someone at lunch today this: I hope in 4-5 years we're back in the market trying to hire a coach because someone bigger than us thought enough of him to hire him away.
I'm looking for an energetic coach that is completely driven. I'm looking for someone who's willing to attempt great things. I'm not interested in a coach in the back end of his career looking for a softer place to land. I'm willing to try an assistant with a plan.
I'm looking for a coach that's willing to go wherever 2 or 3 prospects are gathered to find players. I'm looking for a coach that will hit the rubber chicken circuit and say "I want some more."
I want a hoops version of Tiger Prowl and Big Cat Weekends or some such innovation. I want prospects saying, "I want to be a part of that."
If I were the AD, that's what I'd be looking for.
I agree, Jet.
I want a new PS3 game... Should I get Madden10 or MLB10-TheShow? I'm torn. What to do? What to do?
I say we hire Pat Sullivan. If Shug could coach basketball, I'm sure Pat can, too.
Ten minutes left in puppet hour and still no Michael or Harrison. I want a refund.
btw, Happy 229th Anniversary of the Battle of Guilford Courthouse.
It was a crucial battle in the 1st War for Southern Independence. Major General Nathanael Greene's army inflicted massive casualties on Cornwallis's army, but the Americans retired from the field, allowing Cornwallis to claim victory. When news reached Britain, Whig Party leader Charles Fox stated, "Another such victory would ruin the British Army."
I lived in Athens for over 6 years and ate at the Varsity 1 time. There was a reason it was only 1 time.
I agree with Jet on the coach. we need a recruiting maniac. If Chiz can go up against Saban, we can get a bball coach that can take the recruiting as a challenge, not a limit.
Get in front of your TVs. It's almost time for Chuck :-)
Jet-a road trip to ATL and the Varsity would be nice. We can take in a braves game afterward. let me know.
As for a bball coach. I would take Tubby if he would come. I think he would add instant credibility to the AU program. He is 58. Minnesota was a dump when he got there.
AU is not going to be a UK. Not right. I want a team that will get in the tourney each year and go at least 2 rounds. Once that is established, if Tubby decides to retire, he would leave the program in good shape. i am OK with that.
CHB-I told someone at lunch today that I really did not want an assistant coach either.
I, like Jet, would like to have an up and comer that other schools will want in a few years if we can get one of those. however, I think if we get Tubby, those up and comers will have turned JJ down.
I heard today that several years ago Tommy Amaker was offered the job and Coach K suggested he not take it. We hired Lebo.
Before Lebo, did AU not try to hire Anderson (did not come for an interview which has been discussed) and Grant (he was at VCU) and another minority coach and they all turn AU down.
Someone correct me, if you recall what happened.
OK. An article on another newspaper site is saying NCAA compliance representatives say it is not a rule that a coach have a college degree. They say it would be nice but is not a rule.
WTC, yes we wanted Anderson but he refused to come in for an interview. He thought if we wanted him we should just make an offer.
A degree may not be a requirement but I think it would send a bad message if a coach didn't have one.
I think it would be a great plus for the new bb coach to become friends with the football staff. They should team up and do a big cat weekend that featured recruits from both sports.
Sorry I haven;t updated in a bit. I've been kickin' it with my daughter, who is on spring break.
I plan to get the HABOTN rollin' again tomorrow.
Piece.
wtc - re: your 7:03, make it happen and let me know ahead of time.
Homer - your work today is way more important than HABOTN. That's what I think at least. I bet others will agree with me.
Kick with the kid while you can JG. It's not long before they're out the door. My eldest arrived at Misawa Air Base yesterday Japan time to start at least 2 years there. She expects to be deployed from there before Christmas.
Quiet night at the Hangar by myself (and the dog).
Spring break took my crew away.
Hang with the fam, Gizzle. We're good.
Jet, go welcome your new neighbors.
My crew took set sail today at 4:00pm for Cozumel. Wife and another mom took 3 girls and 6 guys from AU on a trip. At least my spouse is responsible for only 3 people on this trip.
Dmiller-they got off to a great start from what I heard before they dropped cell service.
Glad to hear they got off safely...
Just finished watching '2 weeks in Hell' . It is about the Green Beret training process.
Those dudes are TOUGH.
Dmiller-where do I go and what do i log in to join the bracket contest.
Is everyone signed up for the Bracket Challenge yet?

36 days of high school left yikes
Good morning, Hotties!
Great cartoon:
NCAA Greed?
nicely done, Wizard. Good morning, Luv.
For committing the crime of substance-free posting, I'm off to prison. Y'all have a great day!
After viewing Luv's cartoon, here's what I'd like to see done to the tournament:
I'd like to see the play-in game expanded to four games with the last eight at-large teams selected to be placed in the four games.
To answer questions of the fairness of good teams having to then serve as the 16th seed, I suggest having them play for the 12th seed in each region, which is a common destination for the "last four in."
But, that won't make nearly as much money, Jet! And, as you know, it's always all about the money!
$.
not that anyone is interested, but James Brooks & Lionel James in participating in an autograph signing in San Diego this Saturday. you still have time to send stuff if you're a crazy kid like me.

Good morning, Hotties. Off to elliptical and then I must fill out my bracket. LIke digger, mine should be most amusing.
Make it a GREAT day!
We all agree Sportswriter Elite - hang with your kids for time passes quickly. We are looking forward to substance and it won't be long before Spring Practice starts.
Killer Dog at Lenox Grill. FTW....or at least it used to be. Sarah Lee dropped the Best's and Sinai lines, so I'm not sure what they're using anymore.
Hey, PF,
What's the latest about your potential move further north?
Tylerson, who graduates from AU in May, is taking spring break to interview for jobs. He is in Atlanta, Chattanooga, CIncinnati and Huntsville this week. This mama would love Huntsville, but I am trying to keep my hopes to myself. He does have an awesome interview in Huntsville on Thursday. He has a lot of great contacts in Cincy, but it is just so far away! Good luck to all of those looking for a job!
Out of curiosity I tried to view Miller's picks and it said we could not view until after the deadline. That makes sense and the way it should be. No riding on someone elses smarts.
Morning Hotties
Cincy - where's he interviewing in the ATL area? We (McKesson) have quite a crop of college kids in our facility last week and this week interviewing for internships and permanent positions.
Best of luck to Tylerson hope he can find something that will make him happy.
gosh, i haven't even thought about printing off a bracket. well, i haven't even looked at one. all i know is UK is a #1 and UT is a #6. guess i'll have to rectify that tonite.
happy elliptical Cincy. i'll be hitting the gym at lunch.
Charlie Joseph's in Lagrange has the best dog around by virtue of the homemade tomato pepper relish.
I don't care what y'all say, I really like Varsity too.
Back in the day cruising the Varsity was the thing to do. After many trips around we would light somewhere and eat. We grew up on the burgers and dogs, therefore they are good.
Ehyou ...
I am pro-Varsity, but I concur with Norm that better dogs can be had at Chris' which is about a long iron from the front door of my building. Norm could probably rip a 6-iron and get it there.
Norm with a 6 iron, huh? So it's what, 80, 85 yards away?
More like a 7 iron.
Would that be Kennedy's 7 iron?
Norm,
I'm not sure who he talked to in Atlanta. He was meeting with Charlie Caperton, who is the CEO/Editorial Director for Atlanta Business Magazine. Charlie had several people from different businesses he wanted Tyler to meet. All I know is they were meeting at the Buckhead Club. I don't think any of those meetings were formal interviews.
In Cincy, he is meeting with GE, P&G and American Modern Insurance Group. He has worked for AMIG off and on through college designing some computer applications for them. In Huntsville he is interviewing with AIS who does alot of work with Dynetics. I think he is also interviewing directly with Dynetics.
He would really like to do project management work, interfacing between the business needs and the computer programers. Many times those two groups do not communicate well directly.
Anyway, way more than you wanted to know! Thanks for asking though :)
Cincy - not more than I wanted to know. I'm a Project Manager myself and McKesson has more PM's in various capacities than I could shake a stick at. He (or you) may absolutely feel free to get me his resume and I'll be happy to see what I can do.
Norm, do you charge a placement fee?
No charge for my assistance. No guarantee of anything either, but I have friends in HR and I have a pretty good record with my referrals.
Thanks, Norm, that would be awesome. As soon as he calls me, I will have him send it to you. Yesterday he called me six times. I think he is a little excited about these interviews.
No problem at all. I believe you have one if not two of my email addresses. It may not hurt matters at all that one of my HR Recruiter friends is also an AU graduate.
Tiger returning for Masters. Let the circus begin.
I like circus peanuts.
I like regular peanuts too.
But, do you like boiled peanuts? Yuck!
Yes cincy, I like those too.
But I really love cashews.
I like boiled peanuts and circus high wire acts. I can enjoy these together or separately.
I like cashews with Kraft caramels, mmmm! And I like circus high wire acts, but not clowns so much, unless they have cashews and caramels.
Digger, I hope you weren't implying that I know what I'm doing with my bracket picks??
I think the only basketball I've watched this year was AU, and it is questionable if you could call that basketball or not.
My bracket has changed 17 times already, just since yesterday.
I love boiled peanuts! Mmmmmmm.....
I am unmotivated today. I have wash clothes, grocery shopping, the post office and fixing dinner for a friend who had surgery on my "to do" list today. I have done none of those things. Guess I should get busy and quit playing on the computer.
The day isn't totally unproductive. I have done a little online shopping for the condo :)
Which wasn't on my list! Maybe I'll buy some cashews and caramels when I get to the grocery.
cincy - info has been exchanged and relayed to 2 AU grads.
No Miller I was not thinking that you were an expert on College Basketball just trying something to see what would happen. I was glad to see it set up this way.
digger,
Have you got your bracket filled out yet? I am having a terrible time.
DMiller...
No one was in any way thinking you have any idea what you're doing.
Norm,
Thanks. We both appreciate your help. It will be interesting to see where he ends up.
Digger's just playing 'possum. He's pure basketball genius.
I'm stuck on the Purdue/Siena matchup... And I don't see a single 5 seed I'm comfortable picking over a 12.
This seems harder than last yr.
I'm seriously considering letting my daughters pick based on which names they like better.
Miller,
I have changed that match-up four times and I still don't know who I am going to pick. You're right - this was easier last year.
Now, I really am off to the grocery store. I would like to get something accomplished before hubby gets home...and I tell him what else I bought for the condo today. Those things are so much easier to tell when there are good smelling things cooking in the kitchen :)
ehyou,
Sometimes I pick based on mascots or uniform colors.
Yes cinncy my bracket is filled out. I have not touched it since I filled it out Monday morning. I wouldn't have any idea as to what to change.
genius
Where is JG?
His daughter is on spring break and he is getting in some valuable daddy-daughter time.
The SEC is getting HD instant replay next year. How could it have taken this long?
Now if they could only get the SEC officials to see in HD so that they can make the correct calls.
I have been out the last few days and do not have time to re-read all 342 post is there a tournament bracket group for all of the habotn
CH=B ...
How true.
Bigdaddy...
See D Miller's post at top of this page from 9:19 yesterday evening.
Cincy, Atl is not much further than Huntsville from Chelsea, so that wouldn't be too bad.
ehyou
thanks
is that espn or what
yahoo
Why are the SEC refs struggling?
Is it faster athletes causing more close-hard to call plays?
Subconscious effects of boisterous fans?
Too much loyalty to seasoned refs that should move on?
Nepotism causing poor ref selection?
The SEC also seems to have more video reviews than other conferences.
Other than celebration interpretation, the SEC rules are the same as other conferences.
How do I work this?
Where is that large automobile?
What is that beautiful house?
Where does that highway lead to?
