We are gonna suck. Even by some god-forsaken miracle allows us to make the NCAA tournament, we are gonna suck. We count rebound. And I am not talking about boxing out, height, or strength. I am talking about catching the basketball. Our bigs the last couple of years cannot jump and extend 2 hands to catch a basketball. I despair at the thought of those bigs actually scoring points. And T - Relly is the best PG we have had since Mo Williams (or arguably ever). We are supposed to be better without him. Good luck with that. I expect a losing season. I expect Auburn will embarrass the hell out of us by an aggregate score of 30 points as well. Doom and gloom. I still don't know why we didn't move on from Grant last year. We just ensured that the next coach will have a tougher row to hoe by keeping him another year.



One Releford isn't better than Ron Steele. Also, the bigs that you are talking about aren't on the team. I think we will be ok as long as Taylor has improved and stays out of foul trouble.

I am just so thoroughly disappointed in our b ball team. I remember our teams in the 90s. They would beat any team we have had in the last 5-7 years by 20 every night. Even if we somehow win half of our league games, that doesn't speak to anything positive about us. The SEC in General is probably about in the 7-8 range as far as conferences go. Anthony Grant has not delivered on any of his promises. It's the same bs every year. We want to be up-tempo, pressing defense, toughness, etc. This doesn't happen. We slow the game down and hope something good happens with 0 ball movement and bigs that cannot score the ball. He doesn't develop players at all. And the most talented players (for whatever reason) end up leaving the program or getting kicked off the team. T-Relly is the only talented player I have seen on our roster in years make steady improvements from year to year. And yes part of my anger comes from my belief in Coach Pearl's ability. We are fixing to,be second fiddle to Auburn for some time.
