I'm going 20-11 (9-9), I'm worried about us inside.
First round or first four exit
I have the same record prediction but am a little more optimistic than you I think. That probably gets us a 7 seed given how strong the SEC will be and I do think we finally break the NCAAT losing streak and win a game.

My prediction is it can’t get here soon enough. Wild-a$$ guess:
22-9 (11-7) - lose 1st round of NCAA.

Go three games deep in the SEC tournament.

Play two games in the Dance

That record though looks a lot like Last 4 in and an 11-seed though so we’ll win the play-in game and get curb stomped by the 6-seed.

20-11, 8-10 in sec... 9 seed. 1st round loss.

Entire season based on the 2 guards coming in from portal. This guess is one is as good as advertised and the other is a little less than advertised. SEC is just going to be really good this year.

Jans seems fired up about this roster, so I will be also. 23-8 (10-8 or 11-7 SEC) . We will be a 5-6 seed after we win a couple in the SECT and then sweet 16.

It is the anniversary of 6-3, so Dream Big

The misery from my deal with Lucifer during the CWS in 2021, so we can now have nice things again unless the devil lied to me

Sweet 16 (finally)

I really really like this team but all of my teams this year we (were and are) dismantled with injuries.
Braves, State football, Saints, Cowboys, and already the Atl Hawks. So fully expect bad vuju.

Agree, we will be good this year and continue to be as long as Jans is here. It will be hard for most to believe until they see it, but, we will be better without Tolu and Jimmy B clogging up the middle. We need players like Cam and Melendez cleaning up the boards and running out in transition. We will give up more points but score even more. It will be a fun brand of basketball.

i agree.. addition by subtraction with Tolu. Hope we play a little faster too.

I like this team alot. The guard play will be something fans will love. I agree on Tolu, a more rounded team w/o him.

Idk about the record but we'll be top 4-6 in the SEC, win a few in the SEC tourney, & make a run in the NCAAs, winning at least 2.

Jans can flat out coach & one of the hardest working individuals I've ever been around. He has no off switch & the team has taken on that personality. Gonna be fun!

I think this season rides exclusively on whether these transfer additions pan out. I think last year's team is significantly better if Andrew Taylor had played and that's just an example of the portal not working out in our favor.

I’ll just say 22 wins at the moment. I really like makeup of the roster except for the 5 and that’s causing concern for interior defense and rebounding. If it’s ok I think they could be a 5-7 seed and maybe make it to the Sweet 16 otherwise it’s 8-10 and first round exit maybe.
