What gets me down is that it isn’t like there’s some for sure hire we could go after if we decided to let Avery go. There’s nobody like Pearl or Rick Barnes that we could grab. The Avery hire was supposed to be the hire that changed the culture. All he’s done is just double down on what Grant did.

I'm conflicted on watching the 2nd half. I'm obligated to but I know what I'm getting

It's a disturbing trend, but those first two years were nothing like this.

I don't think it can get worse but I'll be proven wrong I'm sure.

The very definition of insanity is to repeat the same thing and expect different results. This is what Avery brings to the table, so we might as well get used to it or change.

that half was really just terrible shooting. We had plenty of good looks.




Yep. At some point, gotta make the shots. It's really amazing we're only down 19 after a 4 of 30 shooting performance.

I have not even watched the game and am just now checking in on the score. Figured we were gonna lose, but we're getting our shite kicked in.

Back to watching Unsolved Mysteries on Amazon Video I go. Too bad Robert Stack isn't alive anymore. He could do a feature on the mysterious disappearance of the Alabama Basketball program.

Teamrankings gave us a 90% chance to make the tournament before the Kentucky loss.

If Bama loses this game, we can forget about the NCAA Tournament, unless Bama wins the SEC Tournament.

Avery Johnson is the Tennessee of coaches, and I can't stress enough just how much I hate him.

I'm gonna watch the second half just to see how bad they can be.

I want to say I saw them hit rock bottom.

Eh, I wouldn't go that far. Most of the season we've been the best Bama basketball team since Gottfried's best years.

These last 3 games have just been abysmal, and there's really no excuse for it.
