Impressions of any team at this point? It's November.

True but I think with how Oats schedules these top tier schools Bama has a better idea of where they are than most teams. He absolutely knows where the most imrpovement needs to come from as does the players. That by itself at least in my eyes will be the catalyst for them pushing themselves to get better. I think we are already seeing it with Sherrel.

Also some folks on hear talking about the freshmen, I am excited about them also but Allen looks like he may be the best of the bunch. He already looks the part and it is like he has a year or two under his belt. How he handles hitting the freshmen wall when they get into SEC play will be telling. Physically he certainly looks the part.

When these three guys (Philon, Holloway and Wrightsell) are on it is going to take the opponents A+ game to beat us. You learn a lot form playing Purdue and Gonzaga where even with the problems inside they had a chance. At least in this tournament I am glad they did not have to play Michigan. How anyone beat Gonzaga but 40 is mind boggling. Just glad Michigan drilled the Barn.

Speaking of the Barn, I watched a few minutes of Pearl and that was all I could take. Some may like him but I just see the cow pasture all over him and can't stomache it.
 
Against Purdue and Gonzaga, I think that we became a little frustrated towards the ending of both games, not gassed as some have said. Both opponents out rebounded us and were not missing many shots. While we be were working pretty hard, we were missing more shots from the floor and the charity stripe. I think we showed we can play with most anybody, Just need to grow some and and work on blocking out around the goal and shake off when other seemingly can't miss a shot and push us around for the rebound. Over all, I think Coach Oats has put together a damn good team with pretty good chemistry in a very short time.

We can play with anyone, but we need a big physical player at the 5. Same thing everyone else is saying.

Been this way since Bedioko (sp?) left. Not unusual for Oats teams. The guys we have are going to have to find a way to improve and get it done. The good thing is we have seen improvement the last two games and hopefully it will continue. Need it to so that when we get to SEC play our inside play will not be such a liability as it was against Purdue and Gonzaga.

It feels like this team is close.....
 
Is it just me or can everybody hear the producers speaking to the play-by-play guys on the SEC network? Heā€™stalking how players been half ass and stuff such as that.
Iā€™m serious. I think Jefferson pilot does a better job.

Ain't just you. On an ESPN broadcast like this, they have a bunch of UA students working it... someone has their wires crossed.
