The numbers are stacked against Auburn and Jeff Lebo heading not only into today’s SEC Tournament, but into the future.
Auburn senior forward Lucas Hargrove has been named to the 2010 SEC Basketball Community Service Team, the Southeastern Conference announced Monday.
TUSCALOOSA — The first foul came a little more than 2 minutes after he stepped on the court.
From one emotional spectrum to another, Auburn certainly didn’t lack motivation when it closed Beard-Eaves-Memorial Coliseum on Wednesday and likely won’t have trouble getting hyped for today’s second installment of the Iron Ball.
Wally Tinker, game ball in hand, strolled past the free-throw line and stopped about 7 feet from the hoop outside the paint.
As much as coaches, players and pretty much everyone else in the Auburn athletic department have talked excitedly about the new Auburn Arena, it likely doesn’t even sniff the buzz that took over the campus more than 40 years ago.
Sophomore guard Frankie Sullivan is questionable for Wednesday’s game against Mississippi State, as he continues to recover from a concussion he sustained at a Friday practice.
It hasn’t been the season anyone at Auburn longed for, but the Tigers certainly can’t be accused of giving their 41-year-old arena a lousy curtain call.
