Auburn

We will know more after Friday.

It looks like we have a 10 man rotation currently.

Size wise we have some bigs.

We also have some shooters.

It looks like a NCAA tournament team to me.
Probably a 7/8/9/10/11 seed.

We won’t compete for the SEC title, but I like the look of this team. We’ve got good depth and a couple of bigs this year for a change. I don’t think we have a consistent bucket getter in the paint like in previous years with Broome, but we’ve got size.

If we can keep guys fresh with the depth and Tahaad Pettiford has a good year, we’ll be in the tourney.

We play a really good Arizona team on Friday.

Pearl on the hot seat or good?

I assume he’s on a short leash.

I’m not saying we are a 15-3 team in the league, but I think 8-11 wins is likely.

We will have to see IF the guard depth is quality.
Kimble/Williams/King all look capable of competent minutes in conference games.

The bigs will protect the rim. Neither offers much more than a dunker on offense. Terrible free throw shooters.

The forwards appear to have some offensive punch. Freeman is big and can shoot. Olson is a marksman. Dowd can shoot or slash.

So far so good. Looks like our defense is better and we've got more size downlow. Schedule should be a hair easier and the tournament expanded by 8 teams.... if we don't make the tournament I'll be shocked.

Early guess is we'll be a 6 of 7 seed but we'll know way more a week from now. By this time next week we'll have played Arizona, West Virginia, and possibly Kansas.
