If this Alabama team is top 25, then college BB is in a very sad state.

We're going to be a serious contender this year for winning it all.
...in the NIT.

A better record and some signature wins? As of now you have a few nice wins like UK and UT, but those teams are a shell of what they have been lately. There aren't any "WOW" wins. Couple that with 7 losses including a few real head scratchers and you shouldn't be ranked.

when was the last time bama was "nationally prominent"? I know they made an elite 8 run when I was in high school, but have they really been nationally prominent in the last 10 years?

We were ranked #1 for one week in the 03-04 season Then Gottfried Gottfried-ed all over the place and we lost our next game and went on to lose in the first round of the NCAAt as a 10-seed.

Who got DESTROYED by Florida, the only solid SEC basketball team.

59 points and 21 turnovers = shitty result.
If this team wore different uniforms, they would be un-watch-a-ble. Maybe when Grant hires someone to coach the offense, they will resemble a good team again. Three turnovers on throw-ins? you gotta F'in' be kidding me.

I don't think Alabama is one of the best 25 teams in the country, so it makes sense to me they aren't ranked.
Sagarin has Alabama at 55. That may not be perfectly accurate, but it's probably not 30 spots off.

Unfortunately 55 is a lot closer than 25. OP is an idiot if he thinks this team should be ranked.

We can start by not giving leads back to our opponents when we have them.

Two years ago, we were what, 12-4 in the SEC and still settled for the NIT? The SEC is in basketball what the Big 10 is in football.

In all fairness, the team two years ago got screwed. They deserved a tourney bid. Otherwise, you are right on.

Bama will be ranked when Grant decides to teach these guys what the purpose of basketball is: to put the ball through the hoop.
Which means: not this year.
Even if we run the table, Bama MAY crack the top 25 with a late season win over a Florida team. However, the probability of Alabama running the table up to the Florida game is virtually nil, even with the fact Bama will play all shitty teams up to that point.
