If we made the final four in back-to-back years, it would be a massive accomplishment. Winning a national title is a crapshoot in basketball. I agree that "make the regional final" is always the realistic goal for any top squad.


I have to think back to back final fours in this century could be counted on 1 hand. Obviously UConn and Florida did it since they both won back to back championships, but not sure if there have been more than 2-3 others since 2000. Maybe Villanova

I think this team has an opportunity to do something really special and it will boil down to keeping people healthy, players engaged despite a loss of minutes, and chemistry.

Just look at the roster. You literally could pull a mass substitution and not skip a beat if it's done right. I think mass substituting will be the best way to at least keep everyone engaged.

First Five:

Mark Sears
Latrell Wrightsell Jr
Chris Youngblood
Grant Nelson
Cliff Omoruyi

Second Five:

Labaron Philon
Aden Holloway/Houston Mallette
Derrion Reid
Jarin Stevenson/Mo Dioubate
Aiden Sherrell/Mo Dioubate

We got cars in the shed to play with. That second five would be just as dangerous as the starters if they gel and play to their potential. Mass substitution can be done and I hope the lineups look something like that.

People might not like the idea but I think this might be the best way to reach our full potential!!

I agree, From a talent standpoint, I would put this roster up against the UK 2011-12 team everyday and feel good about Bama's chances. That Uk team started 3 Freshman and 2 Sophomores (occassionally Darius Miller started as well as the lone veteran).

Alabama has all this talent and the potential to start 5 seniors. It's a lab built roster and it's full of experience. I don't necessarily "expect a national title", but im not sure how much better you could make a college team.

Exactly,

Our roster talent is crazy when you look at it from top to bottom.
