Looks like now that he’s washed, his “aww shucks me and Nate are best buds” shtick is no longer needed.
The irony of this tool talking about “not valuing the ncaa and only valuing players” after telling a recruit and his family to literally lie to the ncaa to save his own a** at UT is some peak memory-holing.

Because Bruce has a history of caring about the rules

He’s just mad he left with a losing record to Nate GOATS.

Anything to keep the spotlight off his son sitting at 14-10(5-6). He’s being intentionally loud about Oats because the natives in Auburn aren’t happy with Steven.

Is it not selfish that he retired briefly before the season and left Auburn with no other choice but to hire his son?

I hope they end up in the "first four out" thanks to that loss to us with former Pistons and Spurs all-star center Charles Bediako

Bruce Pearl calling someone selfish is the most ironic thing I’ve ever seen.

When Oats was on Field of 68 before Arizona and said "You want to beat some of these guys real badly because some of these other coaches are jerks-" I am assuming Bruce was one of them in mind.

Who cares what one of if not the No. 1 cheater in the SEC thinks. All he has to do is look at his personal cheating record. And he cares about the sec and the ncaa? Most if not all sec schools are playing a pro not counting American recruited kids that are being paid. I guess it is ok to pay international players that have played pro ball three years, are 25 years old playing against 19 year olds, just out of high school. And taking scholarships away from American high school kids. Yea, for you Bruce and Sankey, you are true patriots.

Not to mention it left the AU players with no real opportunity to go into the transfer portal as the hoops season was close to starting.

If what Bruce says is true about Nate not caring about the SEC or Ncaa, I agree with Nate 100%

Why is it nates job to care about the SEC or the NCAA? And Bruce has cheated everywhere he's coached at. He fits right at auburn. Claims moral superiority while being the scummiest of them all.

He's really making my blood boil. Him saying that Oats is selfish and doesn't care about the SEC or the 5 teams and their coaches Bama played during the Bediako run is absolutely absurd. It is proven that he has AND will do whatever he has to do to win. He was caught cheating at UT and AU so doesn't that mean he doesn't care about the SEC and the team/coaches in the conference? A sin is a sin. Wrong is wrong. He should know that from being at that fine religious institution he's been associated with.

Why should Nate Oats care about the SEC? Why should he care about the NCAA? Have they shown to have the best interests of the athletes or the member institutions?
Pearl is trying to turn a legal situation into a moral one. But we know that Pearl is a liar and a cheat, so why would we listen to a crook’s character assassination?

One other thing. If he wants to be a professional TV analyst, learn from one. Watch how Saban does his job and with class.

Only coaches with a winning record against Alabama since 2019 can say anything about him. That excludes Pearl because he had a losing record against Oats. And he’s a fat boog
