You can't be last in a league that hasn't even started league play yet. I would be shocked if they finish last in the SEC this year. It just gets tiresome listening to you three bitch about a coach as if this is his team and none of you understand that it takes time to instill a winning program after what was left over. Yes Kim recruited this class and they show a lot of promise. He did however get a really late start. If you don't get that I really don't think it's worth even talking about it. If you don't see progress in the last 2 games I really don't know what the hell your watching... Many a great coach have had awful first seasons with inherited rosters and turned out just fine

Im not bitching. We dont get the bryants and blakeneys of the world. Why? Cause they dont wanna play in front of an empty arena. That's why a football game vs georgia is our best recruiting tool instead of actual basketball game.
We need players who can get their own and create. You can ignore this all you want, your choice. Puryear and vanleer arent those players. They are role players. You cant keep an incoming class and lay a turd in the following one, when this class is more important for building, not the 2016 class cause tatum isn't coming

I haven't bitched about this coach. I bitch about how difficult it is to watch this team. I do think I've acknowledged the progress seen in the Illinois and OSU game. Neither of those teams are very good but those losses don't even bother me. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the W/L isn't important to me. What I'm worried about is how they look in those games. So far, Illinois and OSU are the only 2 games that it's even resembled basketball. Hopefully that's a good sign though as they're our 2 most recent games. If they've improved, they should beat Lipscomb by 15 or more. We'll see.
KA will and should have 4-5 years to get things turned around. I'm just not buying into the sunshine pumping that went on before the season and continues now. Hell, before the season, some were pegging us as a tournament team. Some are already pegging us for the tournament next year and we're 5-7 and haven't beaten anyone worth a damn yet. All I'm saying is some people need to pump the breaks a bit and take this team for what it is...not very good. Might be young. Might show promise. But right now...not very good.
