re: Auburn vs Alabama basketball

They would be missing Denson, Ward, Payne, and Langford correct?

Unless Sullivan or Gabriel got hot they would struggle to score 40 points.

Probably. The bigger problem for Auburn is that Chubb and Kouassi would both have to play a lot of minutes.

Denson just tweeted about being back with the basketball family so I'd expect him and Ward to play tomorrow.

None of our interior players are missing so the rotation inside shouldn't change unless we play Gabriel more at the 3 which is certainly possible.

An article on Sanderson, in case you guys missed it.
Topical quote from the article,

“Robert was a real smart kid in the classroom and on the court,” Wimp says. “Sometimes, he was a bit hard to handle. Once before the start of the 1991 SEC tournament in Nashville, he and I had a disagreement and I had to suspend him for the opening game against Florida. Our whole team was mad at me, because they thought suspending Robert would knock us out of winning the tournament. “At halftime against Florida, we’re down by 17 points. But we came back and won it, and the next day against Auburn, I think I put Robert in the game right after the national anthem. We ended up winning the tournament.”

Did Knox or someone close to Kouassi post something on ITAT that caused a stir?

Yeah. He was upset that Willy hadn't been getting any playing time and thought he should be playing more to prepare for the future. I don't know if it is a coincidence but since his rant Willy has seen action in every game. FWIW I agree with Knox although I would have handled it much differently. We aren't going anywhere this year and it isn't like we get much from either Chubb or Forbes anyway. Let him get pushed around and take his lumps this year so he can see what he needs to work on is my line of thinking on the matter.

It was kind of random. He has around 30-40 post there but since the season started he hadn't posted.

The biggest threat yall have is the little point guard. He may be just as fast as Releford.
