I skimmed over some of it, but there's some interesting stuff about the conditioning program (kind of). Grant says Taylor is up to 240 (says he's 6'10), Shannon Hale came in at 6'8 220 and is up to 230, and Nick Jacobs is between 245-250. I don't know what Nick played at last year, but Grant seemed pleased with what he's done conditioning wise in the off-season.

Hell I thought he probably played close to the same weight last year.

Don't know really. Guessing it was closer to 255-260 (fwiw ESPN has him listed at 6'8 265). I definitely don't think he was 245. Not to mention he could be putting on some muscle.

Regardless, Grant seems happy with it so he must be doing something positive.

If anyone was wondering, Jason Pratt is still mad judging by his twitter account.

I don't follow Bama basketball recruiting much so sorry if this is a dumb question but how good is William Lee and do we want him in the class?

He is good. We want him in this class. How good is hard to say because I haven't found any film on him really but he was owning the paint during the AAU season.

@DaveTelep: Georgia, Georgia tech, Ole miss and Alabama are finalists for Tadric Jackson. Wednesday 245 is decision time.

I would think Tech for him

I don't think it has been too accurate on basketball, but the 247 Crystal Ball has him 100% UGA.

You asked on BamaMag, but I'm going to answer here so I won't be accused of posting "premium" content.

Goodman ranked the SEC:

1. UK
2. UF
3. UT
4. LSU
5. Bama
6. UGA
7. Mizzou
8. Ole Miss
9. Texas A&M
10. Vandy
11. South Carolina
12. Arkansas
13. Auburn
14. Miss State


He also tweeted this...
quote:


@GoodmanESPN SEC Preseason Power Rankings. Hard to argue with the top four teams, but who would you have fifth?


Don't have a problem being ranked 5th, but that tweet made no sense. Barring major injuries, we should easily be a top 5 team. It's hard to argue Mizzou being ranked ahead of us much less UGA, whom he has ranked 6th for some unknown reason. KCP was the only reason that team wasn't one of the bottom-dwellers last year.

The sooner, the better. He was planning on deciding in November before we landed Coleman.
