Sexton getting all the national recognition on SC. Gotta be good for recruiting.

Just rewatched the 2nd half.We can shite on Petty all we want but he balled out on defense in the 2nd half and his shot is close to falling, he had 2 or 3 that were halfway down and popped out.

Imo, Petty's our best (maybe only) chance to advance. We've got to have some offensive help outside the paint. Kentucky's gonna pack that lane so full of players, it'll be hard to breathe in there, and we can't count on Sexton to be our only alternative to an outside offense. His 1st shot today may be HUGE for us.

He really should have gotten a lot more than he did this season, but ESPN got so caught up in the Trae "LOL Defense" Young hypefest (that they created) that he kind of flew under the radar as far as one and dones go.

Uconn parts aways with Kevin Ollie.

I doubt we do, but I do hope we kind of shake up the staff this offseason.

I think Coach Pelphrey has done the best coaching job this year. Hall has looked really good and fairly consistent.

I'd say get rid of pony tail, but he has good foresight on when to stand like a statue and take a charge.

I dunno it's being reported he was fired with "just cause" assuming it is related to their ongoing ncaa investigation

I wish Ollie was coach when we played UConn in the E8. :(

The only person I could see leaving would be Rosemond since I think he only got a 1 year contract. Seems like Pettway will be here till he dies and I don't see Pelphrey getting a head coaching job this year. I hope we retain him.

I don't think I'm a fan of Coach Pettway. Probably, my favorite Bama player though.

Lunardi has us as a 9 right now playing....Creighton again. Id love to get revnge on them because Releford was fouled. And then we would play Virginia in the 2nd round which IMO plays our kind of style.


Wouldn't complain with who we play in the NCAAT, but this would be a rough matchup for us in both the first and second round. Creighton ran us out of the building a couple years ago in the NIT. They're a fundamentally sound, well coached, and experienced team. We tend to not do too well against those types of teams.

Against Virginia- we'll I'd rather play most any other team. We may not score 40 against them.

Nobody on this board expected this team to lose 14 games. Nobody.

I did. It didn't happen the way I expected, thought we'd lose more early, but you are wrong. Feel free to search the early pages of this thread.


and duke, ken, unc should expect the sweet 16. Saying we should is comical.

Excited for today!

I just want a more offensive minded assistant that can help the players develop.

That’s what I hope Avery looks for this offseason.

Call me cynical, but I am thinking all of this extra pub Sexton and Bama got last night on SC, etc. is because they will be televised on ESPN this afternoon.

Looking forward to Chris Stewart here in ten minutes. I wonder if he's as hungover as I am?
