Can't spell Crimson Tide without N-I-T.
Face it guys, it's just in our blood now. Anytime we need the win, we pull this crap out.
Georgia isn't bad, but we really had no business losing to them.
I expect at least 2 more losses before the SEC tournament. If for nothing else, to miss out on bye chances.

Think about it guys, most of the players we have now are local kids that no one wanted and players that were 3-stars. We don't have anywhere near the talent level that Kentucky or Florida has. We don't even have the talent Auburn has right now. You can thank Anthony Grant for that mess. We were able to get a decent 2016 class with Key and Davis and then we had to fill the rest of the roster with transfers just to have depth. I hate saying "next year" bc I said it all throughout Grant's career and I said it after last year, but one final "next year" and we should be good. We have 2 FIVE STARS a couple of 4 stars and a couple more 3-4 stars coming in along with a good core group of guys that will come back like Key, Dazon, Hall, and Riley. If we can get on the bubble 2 years in a row with a bunch of 3 stars then I really expect us to have a great 2017-18 season. I'm still buckled up.

we said "next year" last year, and it's the same as it was

I'm still pissed we let Grant hang around one year too long because of the damn buyout being too big. How expensive does it look now??

Hell, Battle was going to keep him even longer. Grant basically wanted to be fired and that's why Battle did it.

Yeah I remember I heard about that on Finebaum. Battle was on there and he basically said he told Grant that he was still behind him and Grant said no, if you need to fire me do what you have to do for the players. Grant basically told him to fire him. That's one thing I respect about him. He didn't drag the program down even more just to get a paycheck when he could have

Yea, that made Battle look clueless. I was disappointed

There is still some good news for tonight. In Collin Sexton game tonight, the crowd started chanting "Overrated!" so he got mad and dropped 40 on em and won

It's not smart to antagonize Sexton.

Number 15, Jared Jones is a sophomore committed to the barn. Collin needs to get him to us.

He probably won't be able to. If they were in the same class then I'd say yeah there's a chance

The "adults" at those games should be ashamed of how they act. Grown arse people chanting overrated to a high school kid. Holy shite
Posted on 2/24/17 at 12:11 am to Cobrasize
They act like Auburn fans

To be fair, Sexton and his antics are well known in Metro Atlanta. He's Pistol Pete. He's the show. He also brings all of that on himself mostly, and it works out because he thrives on it.

Man last night sucked.

I'm having a bad week. Every time I'm having a bad week the basketball team goes out there and makes it worse by laying an egg. I know I said we'd lose in here, but honestly I got my hopes up. They're a one player team without Maten, and they still beat us.

I'm just glad I won't have to watch our team tomorrow because I'm going to the Wilder fight in Birmingham. It's painful watching our team.

Same here. I really hope imploding late in the season doesn't become a trend in the Avery era.
Officials fricking sucked last night.
