Charles Barkley is surely one who will make some eye-popping remarks when he is on the air for NBA on TNT or any chance he gets to debate sports topics.
On Saturday, during an interview with announcers Kevin Fitzgerald and Dane Bradshaw at the Auburn-West Virginia game as part of the SEC/Big 12 challenge, the Hall of Famer’s demeanor was no different. When Fitzgerald and Bradshaw asked why he chose Auburn to play college basketball, Barkley was brutally honest in his response.
“They sucked, to be honest with you,” Barkley said. “I tell all of these kids if you want an education, you get an education anywhere. But the No. 1 thing you look at if you're going to a school is playing time.”
