re: SEC basketball programs ranked by all time AP poll rankings

I don’t understand Alabama fans’ obsession with consistency. No one said Alabama isn’t a respectable program historically. That doesn’t mean Kentucky, Arkansas, LSU, Florida, Missouri, and probably Tennessee would ever trade their basketball history with Alabama.

This is basically accurate, I think.

We are seldom "bad" in basketball - probably moreso than anybody in the SEC outside of Kentucky and maybe Arkansas. Our number of sub-500 seasons in the last 50 years is probably in the top 10 or 15 nationally if I had to guess. But our highs just haven't been very high.
