    Getting Ready for Spring Battles!

    I think before yesterday, there were 26 more Saturdays until Game #1!!! We are half way there and now Spring Practice begins and hopefully we learn a little bit about who and where we are!!! My main goal, if I could make one, if to have 1 of the QBs emerge this spring as the leader. It would...

    Bama Game Thread: MBB IBOB2 Bama hosts Auburn - Sat Mar 7 - 7:30 CST ESPN

    I couldn't watch this one, but it sounds like it was a thorough beat down until, as CNO said, we started watching the scoreboard in the 2nd half. He's kinda like CNS, always looking for an angle of improvement. I like it! Roll Tide Roll. 3 in a row in basketball and 6 in football!!!

    Getting Ready for Spring Battles!

    I understand where you are coming from. We all feel a little like "burnt children" regarding the OL and how their problems extended to multiple areas of struggle. Literally, I think the OL issues last year impacted RB, QB, and WR production... so yeah, it is a foundational issue for this team...

    2026 Basketball Recruiting

    If this is not the year CNO uses the portal for that, I don't know when he will. Right now our class is 3 shooting guards/forwards. I'm not sold on Bol Bowen returning (JMO), so I think at least two rebounding/rim protector freaks would be ideal. And since Sherrell is really a stretch 5 and...

    2026 Basketball Recruiting

    I saw where someone said UF has NO commitments to date. Welcome to the day of building a team from scratch each year from the portal.

    Bama Game Thread: MBB - Bama at Georgia - Tues Mar 3 - 5:30pm CST ESPNews

    Every comment I've made about improvements/adjustments are based on the way we play. I've never said CNO isn't great/best ever for us, I've never said I want to change our style...I love it! I would have loved to play in it, as a player. But you respond to many of my post as if I'm constantly...

    Getting Ready for Spring Battles!

    This is probably the most excited I've been for Spring practice rolling around in a few years! Heard Rodney Orr today on Three Man Front predict the battle of Austin and Keelon for QB and he thinks Austin line up #1 in drills but Russell overtakes him in time by the fall to be the starter...

    Was talking on another thread about this being CNO's worst dunking team. I think this add will help!!!

    Come on man, we are talking about ways our team needs to improve. Nobody said we suck and that CNO isn't the best coach we ever had. But if we want to win the SEC and go deep in MM, we need some of these improvements...especially rebounding. Can we not talk about Bama basketball on this...

    Bama Game Thread: MBB - Bama at Georgia - Tues Mar 3 - 5:30pm CST ESPNews

    Did a little digging into the conference stats: We are #16 (last) in Combined Opponent Rebounds, allowing over 40.3 a game. Yet, we are #3 in Combined Team Rebounds, getting 40.7 a game. Interpret that as you may, but our pace of play probably contributes to both with more shots being taken...

    Bama Game Thread: MBB - Bama at Georgia - Tues Mar 3 - 5:30pm CST ESPNews

    Yep! This is the worst "dunking" team CNO has put on the court. Jemison my be our best dunker, but in traffic he doesn't finish well. For a 7 footer, Sherrell doesn't get off the floor very well either. And that is a HUGE part of our offense. It was never more evident in the few games Beds was...

    Bama Game Thread: MBB - Bama at Georgia - Tues Mar 3 - 5:30pm CST ESPNews

    I don't recall what the change was...but it sounds familiar. I'm thinking Herb Jones was a master at this (or maybe it was another player). Your post, however, coincides with a running discussion of how CNO needs to adjust in some areas. All great coaches learn how to do this...Coach Bryant...

    Bama Game Thread: MBB - Bama at Georgia - Tues Mar 3 - 5:30pm CST ESPNews

    Whatever the reason: whether it's what you mention OR the fact we are so spaced out around the perimeter on offense (probably some of both), our opponents know this and they are sending about 3 or 4 crashing to the board. It's often 1 or 2 vs. 3 or 4 on the offensive boards. That is somewhat...

    We are who we are at this point. But what are we??? We are a team of Thoroughbreds in need of some Clydesdales! Let's face it. We are physically weak. Philon, pound for pound, is our strongest player. Wrightsell is there too...he's just not as athletic as Philon. But outside of two 6' 3-4"...

    Bama Game Thread: MBB - Bama vs Vols 2 - Sat Feb 28 - 5p CST ESPN

    I wish we'd switch with whoever the 4 is to defend the pick n roll when Williamson is in the game. I know it's not what we normally do, but it might allow him to stay closer to the basket, like you are talking about. That's where he can use his body the best. Get him outside the paint and when...

    It wouldn't surprise me if a couple of those big safeties we've taken aren't eventually converted into LBs. All they need is weight...

    Bama Game Thread: MBB - Bama vs Vols 2 - Sat Feb 28 - 5p CST ESPN

    That was a gutty win. One that we needed for momentum and optics. A huge win on the road!!! That double bye in the SEC is HUGE!!! We played better...the way we let them get second chance points in the 1st half is untenable! Refs pretty much swallowed their whistles the whole game. The...
