Just gumped out and went to youtube and watched Bediako's highlight reel at Alabama and Omoruyi at Rutgers. Omoruyi is vastly superior in just pure athleticism and experience, probably has a little better hands. But I had forgotten how good Charles was when he arrived at Angry Chuck mode. Guy was...

This basketball roster is reaching those Saban era football rosters where the only team that was beating Alabama was Alabama ...

[quote]For me, it helps pass the time during the dead period of football.[/quote] I think that's the difference in the two worlds. For most of my life as an Alabama fan there is no dead period for football. It's the same conversation over and over again. It's the same small world everyday. I l...

[quote]I love what we had, but I don’t love anything about what’s happening right now. I’m just not quite ready to leave yet due to the memory of what was.[/quote] I have done a fair amount of yelling at the clouds about it, but even I can't deny that in a very a$$ backwards way it has expanded t...

[quote]Getting better at finishing at the rim is going to be critical for him in Oats scheme and it will likely change how teams defend him as a shooter.[/quote] 100%. Either that or exceptionally good at kicking it out on penetration. I think he has the potential to be a very good assist guy i...

[quote]He will get a lot more 3's and layup practice with Nate. He will be fine [/quote] You are probably right about that. Playing faster will likely help him. He has elite handles, but he looked very uncomfortable when the game was in the half court and really didn't appear to know what h...

Am I late again ? :lol:...

[quote] Is JQ a good comparison for Aden? Seems like that's a potential career trajectory for him.[/quote] I agree. JQ could certainly have head scratching games. But when he was under control and in a rhythm he could have long stretches where he was the best player on the floor....
