Good write-up about some new basketball recruiting legislation. LINK

Most interesting note is that it increases the amount of contact former players can have with recruits.

Jared Butler wants to visit Bama in June

quote:

When it comes to the Crimson Tide, Butler feels like he has a lot in common with Alabama's head coach. "Coach Avery Johnson has been in the NBA," said Butler. "He's a point guard too and I like that a lot about him. He's actually from New Orleans where I'm from so he knows about the area and we talk about that a lot."

Tennessee landed Howard grad transfer James Daniel. He led the nation in scoring two seasons ago.

I really hope we can play Arizona this year. Would be a huge opportunity

Another SEC team that will probably make a big jump next season. Glad we get them at home this year.

Yeah he'll probably join the 2017 class. Then Mizzou will move ahead of us in the rankings...

If we can just finish with a top 10 class, I'll be happy

Here's a very good interview from BOL with Colton Houston. He said they're still waiting on Key's decision with "fingers crossed" (Gongora and many others have already said he's told the staff he's coming back, so Colt just has to say that). They also said they're awaiting word on if they'll be able to play in the SEC-Big 12 challenge LINK

What we do need though is a team of guys that are all about winning and not as much about themselves.


I've held my tongue as long as I can on this topic. In no way had Key EVER shown that he's not a team player. As a matter of fact, early in the season, one of his biggest problems was that he would defer to other players to make plays instead of being selfish.

And don't tell me if you had even a 1% chance of becoming an instant millionaire that you wouldn't want to test the waters.

Was Sexton selfish for going and playing in all of the all star games? Should he have been at Ttown the entire time working out with the team? Are you going to call him selfish too?

Come on man.....

Andrew Jones is staying at Texas. It's hard to see them only winning 11 next year. They should be a good opponent in Birmingham.

Texas is gonna be good. Really good. Beating them would definitely help our tourney resume.

I honestly thought Monday (today) would be the day Key announces, but nope. Guess that means we're gonna wait until the very last minute.....sigh
