What's everyone's prediction on our basketball record?

20-11 is about right. I think our RPI will be pretty low, based off of early looks at who we are playing. An NIT invite would be good.
Honestly, it is too early to tell because the competition hasn't been that great so far.
But one thing about Stansbury is that his teams usually improve as the season goes on. I like what I'm seeing out of this team so far, and honestly LSU, Arkansas, Auburn, and Alabama haven't impressed me so far. We have the defense to keep us in any game we play this season, and we seem to have decent outside shooting (still, against bad competition).
So, my pulled-out-of-my-*** prediction: 24-7 overall, 11-5 SEC

I added up what I think are "winnable" games and then subtracted 3 because we always lose a couple of those, I come up with a total of 18-13, 8-8.
I agree with your pick because this basketball schedule is as weak if not weaker than our football schedule. The positive is we actually have decent talent on the basketball team complemented by good coaching. I don't see any reason for us not to win 17 or more unless we get some major injuries down the road.
