It's been "supposed to be better" for the last 4-5 years now...
It's the mid-upper teams that are killing the league overall, which should be Arky, Tenn, Mizzou, Vandy and one could argue Bama and traditionally us. Those are the traditional tournament teams that aren't making it/cutting it now...
Everyone in the SEC seemingly recruits in the top 25 every year and is loaded with 4 and 5*s, so people reason they should be elite from day 1(everyone "thinks" in the UK model which is unsustainable to anyone but maybe 10 teams in the country). Basketball recruiting has to be the biggest shitshoot I've ever seen from a ranking perspective...

Well, there is no question that we are going to be a better team this year, but we were a solid last place in all pre-season polls. I expected more from teams than what I have seen so far. A few of the losses are OK, but some of them are just WTF.
Maybe a team with a lot of together time can surprise a lot of teams in the league this year. At least that is my hope...
