Jeff Lebo builds bridges to unite players, alumni

Posted Oct 8, 2005

In a season that marks the 100th year of Auburn basketball, coach Jeff Lebo hopes to eliminate the gulf between old-timers and recent alumni. "There's been a lot of coaching change (at Auburn)," Lebo said. "I was lucky to be at North Carolina where coach (Dean) Smith had been there for such a long period of time and really kept the group together. We're trying to do our part to get them all back and become involved in the program. I think it's gone very well." (Mobile Press-Register)
