I appreciate the pity but this team is soft. I guess they could grow up a little over the next month but I don’t see it.

Tell that to your AD.

Didn't he try to hire Shaka Smart and Gregg Marshall?

In all seriousness though, it's a disappointing season so far for sure. Didn't think we were final four material by any means, but expected to make the tournament and maybe win a game. But it's Bama basketball, and when good things happen, terrible things are sure to follow.

We're definitely in a down era right now. Coleman isn't great for fans, but in terms of players' amenities, like locker rooms and stuff it's fine. Based on the rest of your post though, I don't think you're interested in having an actual discussion, so troll on.

There is a problem on the team. Attitude, a player or two who is not buying in. Who knows? The talent is there.

I too think Coleman should be attacked with a team of D8 dozers.

I don’t recall any of us saying that. Unless we’re talking football.

Final Four? You know we didn't say that. But most people, not just Bama fans, thought we'd be pretty good. It's been a disappointing season so far.

No. Pretty simple expectation of just making the NCAAT.

Probably not going to make it.

Yeah, I'm not sure what is going on. The team just hasn't come together. I think we play too many guys, but that alone isn't enough to explain our struggles. As far as Coleman, I'm all for a new arena, just glad the players facilities haven't gone out of date. I think it's in the works.

No. Bill Battle tried to hire them, but he is not our AD.

The one peace of mind I have about the basketball program is that Greg Byrne will make the next hire for us if Avery can’t get it done. He’s the most competent AD Bama’s had in a very long time, if not ever. I know Mal Moore hired Saban, but outside of that he was a glorified fund raiser.
