I'd say Tarrant, Levi, Hale, Kessens, and Taylor.

Tarrant is a redshirt junior who put up big numbers at Tulane. I imagine he will be our starting PG next year.

Kessens is a redshirt sophomore who put up big numbers at Longwood and was their freshmen player of the year. His body type is similar to Hale's though he doesn't have the 3 point shot that Hale has.

Justin Coleman is a blur at PG. Has great vision and a really good shot. He's 5'9 and 150 though so he's going to battle every night not to get physically abused.

Devin Mitchell is a talented SG known for his range. He's tall enough at 6'3 to get off his own shot. How well he can play defense will determine how much time he gets.

Riley Norris is a 6'6 shooter. I don't know what to expect from him next year. He was a great all around guy at his high school but I don't know how good of competition he played against.

On paper we should be a pretty decent team.

I hope we beat LSU because frick them.


But Kentucky is going to destroy us. And if not them then UGA/UF will.

The fact that this Kentucky team is the #2 seed shows just how bad SEC basketball is this year. I don't see too many tournament teams there.

We aren't going to any tournaments, but I wouldn't be all that shocked if we knocked off LSU since we beat them once already this year.

I can see that happening too. And I don't think that they've been playing their best ball game lately.

I'm just curious as to why you think Kentucky destroys us if we get there? I'll hang up and listen.

Alabama has already proved they can beat LSU. If they can some how get past Kentucky the next round looks winnable against any of those 4. I know, I am living in a dream world.

Yea I mean, I'm confident we can play with them and that's one reason why, I was just wondering why he thinks we'd get destroyed.

Alabama absolutely could have an should have beat Kentucky at Rupp. Lead at halftime and simply mailed in the last minute of that game. Kentucky may be the most unmotivated team in the SEC.

It wouldn't surprise me to see just about any of the 2nd rd SEC teams win the tournament this year. Hell I wouldn't be completely shocked if Harrell and Denson went ape-shite and carry AU. UF is going to be the worst NCAAT #1 overall seed we've seen in years. They're a top 25 team don't get me wrong, but #1 in the nation is ridiculous. We played two solid games against them and those 2 games went down to the wire. I wouldn't even say we played that great at all either times. It was just solid performances.

Because Kentucky will be bringing their A game in order to get a better seed in the tourney. I'm not saying that we won't either, but I have a feeling that it won't be close, and of course, that's only if we beat LSU.

Kentucky has been trying to improve their seed for weeks, the SECt won't be any different. I'm not sure they have an 'A game' right now

I don't see Mitchell having much effect next year. May not see the court much unless he brings some toughness.

Agree. Sadly I still don't think he's to 150lbs. Also he is great in transition, but at Wenonah they did not ever run any sets in the half court. It will take alot of learning and getting physically ready. Grant develops point guards well so I am confident he will be a good player and a solid backup pg next year.
