Assuming Jones is canned should we go for him?

We're getting rid of a coach that lost to Kim Anderson and now you want to hire another one?

Why would he leave one bad basketball school for another?

I honestly would really like this hire.

Please NO! We don't need a retread Coach who was caught lying to the NCAA throughout the investigation at TN. 2 years in now at Auburn with losing record. We need to go after rising stars, not fading stars.

Bruce Pearl is not a good ole baw so he has no chance with this LSU administration.

Oh, and I think Bruce Pearl would be pretty bad.

We are a little late on hiring Bruce Pearl.
Can't blame Alleva, we just hired Jones and he hadn't shown us how bad he was.

3 years ago the answer would have been a resounding YES. The shine is off Pearl now after 3 years at AU.
However, his team this year was very young. I think there was a graphic in the LSU game last night that Auburn is ranked in the top four in the nation (either 2 or 3 I think) as far as the % of their total points which are scored by Freshmen. He pulled in a top 10 recruiting class last season and he has two four star (top ~50 players) coming in next year.
It may have taken longer than he wanted, but there are signs that Auburn could be on the upswing very soon.
I doubt Pearl would leave right when he thinks he may start seeing the fruits of his recruiting labor. However, it wouldn't be a bad idea for LSU to consider one of his former assistants, Steve Forbes. JA would have to get over the fact that Forbes was caught up in the Pearl/Tenn. scandal, but he can flat out recruit and may prove to be just as good a coach
