Revenue sharing should help Arkansas with more depth at around 11 players.

I really hope we don’t try to play Wagner off the ball again like early last year. He’s at his best facilitating and driving. But not sure you leave Acuff on the bench either.

Thomas will start over Wagner by mid SEC play is my guess. Better shooter and rebounder just give him some time to develop like Knox.


I genuinely hope that he doesn't still have his wagon hitched to Wagner like he did at Kentucky when he was playing him over Dillingham.

When did so many Auburn fans start nerding out year-round for basketball? Gradually turning into soccer nerds.

For the love of god grow a pair.

Alabama has several extremely highly ranked freshman coming in. My prediction for them will be based on how they look non-con.


I got some breaking news for you: the nonconference will tell a lot about every team, as it always does. There are a ton of pieces yet to be added. Even dudes who have declared for the NBA can have a change of heart at this stage. Patience Grasshopper.

Of course but Alabama has the fewest (today) proven pieces on the court. (And on the bench).

I don’t doubt Nate’s ability to coach or that bama will be good.

My evaluation of the teams is not the “rank order” of them but rather how each team compares to their team from last year.

Not comparing teams to each other yet.

There will certainly be a drop off but "worst year on campus"?

Nate's worst two seasons were:

2019/2020 - 16-15
2021/2022 - 19-14

There will be a drop off offensively but Nate's best teams have come when we were at least marginally competent on defense.

If we can just manage to rank in the Top 200 in scoring defense next season it could negate much of the drop off.

Case in point...here's where Alabama has ranked nationally in scoring defense the 6 seasons Nate has been at Alabama:

2024/2025 - #347

2023/2024 - #349

2022/2023 - #121 (SEC regular season championship)

2021/2022 - #325

2020/2021 - #175 (SEC regular season championship)

2019/2020 - #334

Oklahoma getting Derrian Reid catapults them from unranked into the Top 40.

Rothstein has Quitance starting. Maybe by January he might but he is recovering from an ACL tear.

Don’t sleep on Johnson. He reminds me of SGA at this point in his career.

Similar to how Drake ran you off the court in the 1st round?
