No one takes the SAT at most of those schools, it’s usually the ACT.
Correct. They may accept SAT scores, but most all prefer the ACT, which is more an achievement test than aptitude.

Adams is set to start at Vandy.

We definitely have players, but need to get out if that zone and play man- we have the talent to do that.

Fielder still rehabbing a leg injury. Not real bad. He’ll be ready.

I turn 74 in September, so having passed my “three score and ten,” I am trying to rekindle the enthusiasm I felt as a boy reading the newspaper reports from the Skywriters Tour, back when all we k ew was what those reporters told us about fall practice. Good old days.

We have definitely sign some middle cloggers this cycle. Should be better on the back end.
Oxford is the best college town in the SEC- and I say that as a Bama grad. Baton Rouge is a dump. Lane is just an immature boy with a Tinder account who can’t find satisfaction, peace, and love in his life. Too bad. He is a good coach but sold his soul to his ego.

If that was season’s end yes, but these basement nerds have no clue who is good and who isn’t.

Disagree. Playing an SEC game in Boutwell should be great. Not a bad seat in the house. Plus they just beat us in the SEC tournament, so we need to put a whooping on them.
Clarence Carter’s “Strokin.” That should fire up young men everywhere. Listen to it, and you will agree. Clarence is from Alabama.

Chauvinistic Pig, Richardson getting 7 rebounds a game sounds a lot like Allen last year being our top rebounder. With two guys on the wing who can rebound like that, we could be big trouble for lots of teams. I think we will be tough to beat around the perimeter.

This looks logical to me.
Maybe, but they would not stand a chance against the 2020 Tide.

not on NC to show for it
Bama has more natties than LSU ever dreamed of.
I don’t know why, outside of inflated money, anybody would play for Will Wade or Lane Kiffin, and Texas money can beat LSU money every time for a top player.
re: Favorite SEC football coach you have met

Coach Bryant.
Top priorities for the SEC are UNC and Virginia. They bring in new, large, contiguous fan bases. 2nd tier is FSU and Clemson. That would give the SEC 20 teams in a new league. More depends on how many more teams are valuable enough for a new league.

Unless he means Diaz, who committed to us and is trying to reclassify.

No doubt the governor will use Medicaid funds to pay for players. Huey Long stopped Ringling Bros Circus at the border, requiring that all animals be dipped in vermin killer, so they would not interfere with LSU football ticket sales.

Diaz. Not entirely sure what is pending to make that be official.
He has to complete classes to graduate from high school. I’m sure he can do that on line- especially since OTM in Atlanta closed down- but taking the classes likely will take all summer. Collins committed in August. Diaz may finish by then.

to logically see that his attorneys and our team feel good about him being back
I appreciate your optimism, so I’m going to buy your take. It is frustrating to think that possessing pot in this day and age could ruin a young man’s life- especially one like Aden who has never been in trouble.
