Doesn't sound like he's going to be 100% though. Maybe he will be a little off and a step slower.

I'll take any advantage we can get at this point.

Philon vs UK (2024-25 season):

1/18/25 at Rupp: 15 pts on 4/10 shooting, Bama wins by 5. Grant Nelson had a huge game
2/22/25 in Tuscaloosa: 7 pts on 3/6 shooting, Bama wins by 13. Mark Sears had a huge game
3/14/25 in Nashville: 21 pts on 8/14 shooting, Bama wins by 29

Granted, Philon is better now than he was last season, and definitely a higher usage player for Bama.
But it's not like he was just teab*gging us every time we played

15 and 21 is crazy good for being a secondary guard last year. He gave us fits.

Man they owned us last year. I hope we hang tough with them this season. Tired of hearing them bragg.
When we were healthy the first game at Rupp was very good. The away game and especially the SECT games was a romp.

For sure the first game at home was a really good game. That sec tournament game was a nightmare .

I had dudes attacking me yesterday for being real about the state of the program. The bottome line is, the bolded part of your sentence is not something that should ever be said when we're talking about UK basketball playing Alabama. But unfortunately, this is where we have been as a fanbase for far too long.

And only one man has been here through our long drought, MB.
