I'll say it: it will be a few seasons before we have....

a competitive basketball team.

but I am shocked that you and others are just now realizing this. Took me a half of our first basketball game to honestly accept this. This season is a wash, get used to it.

this team (with Bost and Sidney) will be the best team we have for a few years...we are about to be really bad for a while. That was my point. I knew this year was going to be bad when we finished last year playing in the NIT.

sorry.

then Hood and Deville Smith play decent, there is enough talent to be competitive. I admit all of that happening is optimistic at best.

It will all depend on how good Deville Smith and Hood are. If they are good we will be really good. If not, we will still be okay with Dee, Jalen Steele, Rodney Hood(he will be good enough), Moultrie, Renardo. Thats a top tier SEC starting five. Now for depth....who knows.

That "top tier" SEC starting five won't accomplish a thing without decent coaching. News flash: there isn't a decent baskeball coach on the entire staff. There is no basketball IQ there. RS must either get a couple of good assistants who can do their (and his) job, or else he needs to pack his bags and get out of town!!! I vote for the latter.

that guy play knowing how much talent he has and how little he did to get himself prepared to play. What do you think the other guys on the team think of that? I know what I would think. Sidney needs to grow up or leave for the NBA where he can be among his peers. The guy thinks he is too good for college and yet the fact is he doesn't deserve to be out therewith guys who have worked hard and are giving it all they have. I know its an old man's view point but I can't stand the guy in his present state, I hope he changes my mind and quick, we sure could use a fine tuned version of Sidney with a good attitude.
