I knew this was a building year, but I expected the guys to play better than this. Turnovers and airballs

How did we win the exhibition game? Did they play all bench players?

Any of y'all old enough to remember the 87-88 team?

That was Wimp's only losing season at Bama. It was a lot like this - a squad of newcomers having to replace pretty much all the scoring and ball handling from the previous year with a bunch of freshmen and sophomores.

It was bad. Really, really bad - and that was with an already proven winner at head coach but the pain brought reward. They all grew up, finished 2nd in the SEC and made the NCAAs 3 years in a row.

If AJ can coach the Xs and Os to go along with the good recruiting work he's already doing, the pain of this season is going to be worth it in the end.
