It’s obvious that we will never be truly competitive in the sport do to apathy. I don’t care about the sport and a majority of Alabama fans outside this forum don’t either.

So I think it best to just do away with it and put the freed up funds to sports that actually matter to the fan base and student body - like football.

Downvote away but we are a football school and thus should focus as much of our funding to football as humanly possible.

Alabama basketball has a great fan base with a shitty team. We haven't been to the NCAA in years and we consistently sold out a 15k arena for conference games.

Looks like a lot of folks saying so far so good, good talent in and seems like things are on track.

Don't think anyone could argue with that assessment at that time.

For some reason 1987 likes to almost brag about how much he doesn't care and semi openly hates Alabama's other sports.

Not sure why. He's a good dude but lawd.

If you don't care, why do you feel the need to let everyone know that you don't care?

Wasn't my point. It was a hire everyone agreed with. Sometimes it doesn't work out. But in hindsight, you can't have sour grapes over it, just move on to the next one.

Alabama can turn it around. The fans will support the team.

I mean Hell, I still cannot believe that AU is winning basketball games.

It's such an obnoxious schtick but he's consistent.

After all the cheating stuff is sorted out we will be able to fire Avery with cause. Problem is nobody worth a crap is going to come to Bama. We try and back up the Brinks truck and still can’t attract a legit coach

Eeyore much? I bet you are a joy to be around. You probably gave up on the NC game against Georgia after our first drive went tits up.

2 minutes into a 6 PM Tuesday tip

I don't know if it was sold out but it was certainly more full than that 30 minutes later
