I'm not quite getting it anymore. It sucked last year but I got it. We didn't have bodies.
That ain't the deal this year. If we are just waiting for him to finally become a consistent pick and pop 3 pt shooter......well good fvckin luck with that.

Nah, that's not sunshine pumping. At the same time though, if taking 6 or 7 games to figure our shite out on offense every year ends up being a thing then that's a big fricking problem.

Reese should be at Sanford. He might average 6 points a game and 2 rebounds

At the very least schedule the dregs of the Sun Belt and CUSA for the first 5-6 games if that is how this is gonna go.

Ellis is not available tonight for some reason that I didn't catch.

I mean I just don't get it. What the frick does he do? He doesn't rebound. He doesn't pass. He doesn't dribble. You can time him baseline to baseline with a sundial. Literally all he does is be tall and make the occasional 3. That's not good enough to get major minutes at a P-6 college program.

Reese is 7 of his last 43 three-pointers (16%).
This is on Oats at this point

I know it’s game 3, but I’ve seen enough to know it’s not going to be a good year unless something drastically changes. The offense looked deadly last year. This year, it’s a disjointed, out of control mess. George is right, if you have to have a lottery pick running the point to make it work, it ain’t gonna work long term. I like Nate Oats a lot but I’m not sure his system translates to high major programs well.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Alabama basketball is most successful with long, athletic players that play sound fundamentals and just outathlete most opposition. Play good D, get a lot of fast break points off steals and rebounds where you just outrun them down the floor and run an offense that emphasizes quickness, speed and athleticism.

I would be concerned if Ellis is just being benched. That wouldn’t make much sense to me.
I don’t like his timidity on offense, but he can help us. Primo is doing freshmen shite at times, but he’s a guy who could be one of our better players in 2 months.
Reese is just Reese. I don’t 100% know what Rojas is yet, but I’m pretty sure he’s going to give me a fricking aneurysm at some point this season.

Not giving up on this season but this is feeling like every single season I’ve experienced for the past 15 years and I want to die

Yep - they run similar stuff to us and have been light years smoother and faster and better at it.
Posted on 12/1/20 at 9:36 pm to SummerOfGeorge
Yea Bruner has to play max minutes.
Posted on 12/1/20 at 9:37 pm to mistaken4193
Now that's a good shot.

What is Shack pissed about
Posted on 12/1/20 at 9:37 pm to Cobrasize
Thought he got fouled on that drive I'd guess
