Only because I feel like the statement should have been “Bruce will never get within a game of that peak again” He Shaka’ed a perfect draw one year. He’ll never sniff it again
He was a coach's son who couldn't shoot. When have you ever heard of such a thing? Did they not have a hoop in driveway for him to shoot? No gym where his dad coached to practice?
UGA is so basketball ignorant they don’t even know how humiliating this is. https://x.com/ugabasketball/status/1771320909250412836?s=46&t=iwp0XoKkzOeulwqK2zCVoQ
The field in 2019 was just godawful. Auburn benefited from playing the worst iterations of North Carolina, Kansas and Kentucky we had seen in a full decade. This was after escaping in the first round I think if you put Auburn in any other region that year, they may not get out of the first weekend. But it’s hard to say because CBB was just so dogshit that year. It was a weird ass year I mean, kudos to them for getting there. You play the region you are given.
And if you need any proof that the field in 2019 was shit… Tony Bennett and Virginia won a national title in 2019
2019? The year we lost to Purdue? I thought college basketball was really good that year. It was way worse the next year when scoring dropped off. Everyone said so at the time
