quote:Cecil Hurt made a sarcastic comment about Key and his thoughts about going pro in his article today. It's ludicrous to even seriously entertain the idea.
If Key seriously thinks he can go professional anywhere other than the Middle East, he might be the biggest dumbass we've had come through this program in a long time. The front row caught more of his passes than Alabama teammates this year and god forbid we talk about his shooting.

I wasn't saying we WOULD be better, I'm saying we have potential to be a more well-rounded team with the experience and talent coming back. We might lose the explosiveness Sexton brought, but IF our younger players develop in year 2, we can put a solid team on the court.
IMO, this is going to be a very critical season for Avery.

It just seems like he doesn’t enjoy being at Alabama.

Other then Hall who developed from last year?
That's a small sample size. Outside of Hall you're looking at AJjr (who improved a shite ton from the season's start to end), Key, and Ingram. Hall and AJjr improved while Ingram and Key regressed with their new roles. Considering half of our rotation were freshmen and we return four of them, each of which have shown flashes of being a really good player, it's not that crazy to think there will be a good amount of improvement.

Hard for me to believe we will be better with the lack of shooters we have while losing the best.
We're adding Mack, Butler and Norris and gaining experience with Reese, Jones, and Petty, all of which were good to fantastic shooters in HS. I think we'll be at least a solid 3-pt shooting team next season which will help open up the offense significantly.

Women beat UCF convincingly as their season continues into the third round of the WNIT. They will host Georgia Tech on Thursday.

Is he for sure coming back? Thought he was still in the fence

Not sure Jones belong here. Jones was a sub 30% 3FG and ~70% FT shooter his senior year
His shot looks fine to me so he should be able to be a solid shooter. Just doubt he makes the progress Petty/Reese should

Key should transfer. Maybe someone can instill confidence in him, because he's played like a puss here.
Sexton
Petty
Mack
Smith
Hall
Reese
Butler
AJJ
Jones
Giddens
Fleming (RS)
Wood (RS)
That would be more than enough to get it done if they work their asses off in the off season

Ingram and Key still have two seasons left. Let's see if they improve. Key had an untimely injury as far as improving as a player goes, so I don't think we can fully judge him yet. Ingram isn't as bad as y'all make him out to be.

I'm pro Ingram. He does a lot of things but he is not a shooter.
Key does nothing

That's been Bama basketball since I was a kid. We can't catch a damn break in our brackets. It's amazing
Posted on 3/18/18 at 6:33 pm to mistaken4193
Because we underperformed during the year
Posted on 3/18/18 at 6:46 pm to Cobrasize
At this rate Nova and Kentuxky are gonna have no competition at all in the Final4.
Posted on 3/18/18 at 6:59 pm to mistaken4193
I'd love to see Nova and UK play in the title. That'd be an incredible game.

It's because we aren't GREAT and always have to play better teams.
Posted on 3/18/18 at 7:06 pm to Gary Busey
I think Nova would win by 5-10 points. UK is too inconsistent IMO.

Any of you guys watching Cincy-Nevada? Game is unreal
