I feel certain we would have won against Arkansas and Tennessee if herb wasn't out.
Probably Auburn too if he were healthier

Just an all-time performance

So happy for him that he got a coach who could help him unlock his talents.

No doubt. Love his selflessness. Most wouldn't even attempt to play with that injury.

Simply brilliant by Herb. What shocked me was how unobtrusively he piled up his stats.
It was all in the flow of the game,nothing forced as he has always been prone to.
Before you knew it he had 14 rebounds,then 17 along with rock solid defense.
Truly an awe inspiring performance. If he continues like this he may not come back next year; remember the Pros have been tracking him since his freshman year.
If Petty,Kira and Herb come back we may end up in Final Eight.

He has been the glue to unlocking our entire offense since they all kind of figured it out after the trip to the Bahamas. He ability to calmly catch inside the arc, dissect and make the right pass opens everything up.

He is night and day from last year and early this season. He is now so calm composed and efficient. Have to give him and Oats credit. Masterclass in development.

Oats has done more in terms of player development in one year than a number of other coaches did in their entire career.

The picture of him at the foul line in today's Tuscaloosa News should be put on the wall of every Alabama athletic facility on campus. That picture IS worth a thousand words!

He might want to consider shooting them like that from now on...he's a 63% free throw shooter normally.

Lots of good things to keep taking from this version of the Tide. And it feels like more to come.

The fans are ready for a good basketball team. Coleman Coliseum could actually get dangerous once again. It was nice, really nice to see that the crowd remembers Watford's decision to go play for money. The passion of our fan base is at least as healthy as our basketball program.

Say what you want about the layout, etc., but I've always said that it can get loud as frick when people show up.

So who starts the petition to get Herb to leave his prints at Denny Chimes?
