Anyone see Andy Katz’s updated top 36 power rankings article released this week? He lists his current rankings vs rankings a few month ago immediately following the NBA draft. I never take his opinion as gospel, but I’m still miffed about where he has us on the list. North Carolina is No. 1...

Those are definitely two major flashpoints in this season's turnaround, but the biggest was after both of those games when we lost Olivier Nkamhoua for the season on Feb. 5 at South Carolina. Our bigs rose to the occasion and this team probably ended up being better for it, looking at how we...

Great win! I haven't had a chance to read through all the posts and threads yet, but has anyone heard (via social media/espn etc.) if there's a chance we get a 1 seed if we win tomorrow? Perhaps if Duke or Arizona lose their conference final tonight? Just curious since only minutes before...

Our guards were aggressive driving the lane, but a lot of the results were contested shots that landed high off the backboard, and when our guards decided to dump it off in traffic to our bigs, they couldn't handle the passes and ended in turnovers or awkward point blank shots that rimmed out...

Losing this game will answer anyone's question why ESPN doesn't respect us. Let's not give them any ammo and dominate this second half!

Looking back on this team's performance, I wonder where this team is (especially emerging players like BHH and Aidoo) if Nkamhoua doesn't suffer a season ending injury? Maybe Barnes would have kept tinkering the lineup and it would have played out the same, but that injury truly forced his hand...

And don't forget we lost at Alabama (currently ranked 24th) by 5 with Fulky and Chandler out with COVID.

-Walkenvol, I get your point but I think you missed mine. The fact of the matter is we have a great alternative at PG after KC leaves. I was justy pointing out that ZZ RECLASSIFIED to join this class at the friggin last minute with almost no recruiting fanfair at the time he committed...

I think Vescovi is at the clip he needs to be in regards to shots taken, save maybe 1 or 2 shots a game where he makes the extra pass instead of taking a semi-contested shot. His unselfishness has kept us in many games, so I'm not sure that shooting a few more shots (for the sake of it) would...

Jay Bilas just said a few minutes ago on the live UNC/FL St. broadcast that both Alabama and Vols "played like Final Four teams" today, and a graphic showed we're currently a 6 seed in Lundardi bracket, FWIW. I take his evaluation with a grain of salt, but good to hear the validation this late...

My biggest observation through 2 games is that no one seems to be really looking to take a shot. Our offense seems almost unselfish to a fault. I know this team doesn’t have any natural 1a/1b scorer options that we necessarily need to run the offense through. However, defenses have so far seem...

Hypothetical: IF the SEC football season gets postponed/cancelled AND college basketball starts with conference play only in January, would this increase Wideman's chances of joining the basketball team? Seems like he could at least start training/practicing with the team. I assume with a...

We know we will be bigger (and stronger) next year with our current players on campus (redshirts including) getting a full cycle of off-season training and development. Throw in our current recruits & additional help on the way (At least 1 grad transfer forward/center and another solid...
