Depends on how good the league's freshmen are, but I wouldn't be shocked if the SEC had their most diverse (in terms of number of teams with a kid picked) NBA Drafts ever in 2021.

All the returnees to school today were awesome. League is gonna be incredible.

I think VOLS will either be 3rd or 4th or 1st depending on how good Keon is. I am usually very slow to put expectations on freshmen but if he is as good as what I’m hearing and the buzz is indicating I think we will be very, very good. Have seen Rothstein and some others not even have him in the starting lineup. Barnes said last week he will be the best player he has had at Tennessee and best player he’s coached in a decade and he just coached a guy who was 2x SEC POY.

That's pretty eye opening praise, especially from that guy

Yeah I am thinking he will be an Okoro type but hard to say because he didn’t play on any of the shoe circuits. Just blew up at USA basketball and then got hurt midway through his senior season. Feel like he is special for Barnes to say that but we’ll have to see.

1. Kentucky. Understandably, the standard and with their returning roster and incoming talent, should be the team to beat again.
2. LSU. Watford will be an SEC POTY candidate and again, with what they return and incoming, should be a force.
3. Tennessee. Could easily be #2 on this list instead of LSU for the same reasons listed but #3 because of the inability of their HC in game time situations.
4. Florida. Loaded just like the teams above but I question coaching, same as UT.
5. Alabama. Could be in for a breakout year. Haven’t been good in a while but with the returning and incoming talent, could be a sleeper with a Coach that could bring it all together and make noise.
6. Arkansas. Could pose a threat with a good roster and talent incoming. Joe returning is huge since he missed much of last season. Good coaching could elevate them past UT and UF when all is said and done.
7. Auburn. One of the least experienced teams in the league but with great coaching could make major strides. Might be a tough out by the end of the season. Super young but talented and deep. Possible bubble team with upside, and the last of the possible contenders.
8-14. Georgia, Mizzou, MSU, Texas A&M, USC, Ole Miss, Vandy. Just don’t see it.

Barnes is very good in game from November-February fwiw

Tied with Calipari for most SEC wins over last 3 years I believe.

I tend to side this way but the response above you is making me rethink that

I’m holding out hope for CBB still. They can push it back two months.

We have a loaded roster. Now it's time to see if White can finally grow as a coach and fix his flaws.

Cuonzo has his most experienced team. All his guys. Two really good guards and a big with NBA talent.

It’s put up or shut up, and will likely be shut up with little to replace these players coming in.

I’m very surprised he’s been as bad as he has, but if he fails here it will be the last straw

I can't even name players 1-14 on our fricking revolving door roster, much less pick the rest of the SEC.

Getting Watford, Days and Smart back was absolutely huge for LSU. It will be a fun season that’s for sure, SEC stacked and I love it.
