Any of yall going down to Tampa? I’ll be there
Spent all day Thursday and Friday in Bridgestone arena only to get pissed off at the team Friday night. Left the tournament Saturday morning vowing to stay home this week.
Saw the draw last night and let my son talk me into going to Tampa
Saw the news this morning about Holloway and now I'm not sure it's worth the 9 1/2 hour drive.

Yeah I was all in on going and now I’m not sure I will. Really killed my enthusiasm for our draw/potential run.

Yeah, I’ll be shocked if we make it out of the first weekend now. I’ve been saying all season that something about this team was just off. They never seemed to get locked in for 40 minutes. The Arkansas game was the best effort I saw from them all year and it was a pretty good one but Arkansas should have never been in that game. I’m just ready to get it over with and get to spring training. Nate has his work cut out for him now to find some backcourt players in the portal. This whole thing is just so stupid on so many levels…

To say he will have his work cut out for him is an understatement.
We lose Philon, Wrightsell, Allen, Mallette and Holloway.

Sat across the aisle from Duane Casey (Pistons front office) at the SEC Tournament. I politely asked him to not draft Amari. He spoke highly of Amari as a shooter which I was a little surprised at. When he asked why he shouldn't draft him I said for my own personal happiness. He said he couldn't make any promises.

He’s going to get drafted by somebody. Might as well be the Pistons. They have a really good up and coming team and he’d be close to home.

From everything I've seen, Bama is by far everyone's favorite upset pick among the top 16. No one trusts this team.
I dont really blame them, I dont trust this team.
But I really want to beat them by 30. I keep seeing statements like "Bama style leads them to struggle in the tournament". Ive seen it at least 3x. What? 3 straight S16s, 1 E8, and a F4. and the S16 we lost to the national runner up.
Yeah, our ceiling isnt great with the lack of size and rebounding, but we can wreck Hofstra is we take them seriously.

I was fully prepared for a decent run but you never know how the team is going to respond. Aden, Bethea, and Philon were all pretty close.
You can either come out and phone it in or let it be a galvanizing factor. Guess we’ll find out.

Oats has had some really bad NCAA tourney breaks.
JQ's ACL tear in the first round
Brandon Miller's groin pull in the SEC tourney final
Holloway's Cheech and Chong

the Sleepers Media preview of this game is 10 minutes of them sucking Hofstra's dick. They barely said a word about Bama, and when they did it was negative.

Allen has taken a tumble lately in every Mock….Oats has a solid teach record of mid-2nd type guys returning, i.e. Philon
Posted on 3/18/26 at 3:46 pm to jjv0004
I’m not referring to the issue at hand….Holloway is a Jr, and you included him in your list of guys Oats will have to replace. Just curious as to why he won’t be back in your opinion?
Posted on 3/18/26 at 3:58 pm to Cover1Key
He’s facing two felonies. I’d say he would at least be a question mark for next year
Posted on 3/18/26 at 7:20 pm to Allthatfades
I mean Hootie Jones and Cam Robinson had more than just drugs

What ball did we play home games with this season? These NCAA balls arent broken in at all, they are extremely bouncy. Rebounds are going long and theyre bouncing around the rims more than normal game balls do. Making it harder to time rebounds. They also appear to be sailing a bit on shooters. Lotta back iron. Some guys are having trouble keeping their handle as well.
Posted on 3/19/26 at 1:12 pm to VaBamaMan
I saw a video from a couple of days ago that mentioned that the balls seemed to be over inflated this year.

Today’s press conference

Well BYU, your 7 million dollar investment in Dybantsa got you bounced in round 1. But I’m sure his 4 months on campus will convince lots of people to convert to the no coffee, no sex, Jesus visited America gang
Great job!
Great job!

I was pleasantly surprised at the performance of the team in Tampa! Following the debacle in the SEC tournament, I didn't think they would make it out of the first weekend - but thankfully I was wrong. If they play an aggressive "in-your-face" defense against Michigan and shoot the 3-ball like they did against TT - they have a shot to work the upset. Hope for the best!
