FINAL RECORD
Overall 17-16, 5-11 SEC, fifth place in Western Division.

WHAT WENT RIGHT
The Tide finished on an up note by going 3-3 over its last six games and beating Florida in the SEC tournament before losing by two points in overtime to division winner Mississippi State. F Richard Hendrix ended up averaging a double-double (17.6 points, 10.1 rebounds), and Mykal Riley became a deadly 3-point shooter down the stretch.

WHAT WENT WRONG
The Tide simply had too much trouble getting consistent play at point guard, and the depth never really developed. A four-game losing streak at the start of conference play put the Tide in an early hole, and it never really dug itself out.

QUOTE TO NOTE
"There is some closure now. Obviously we're excited to see Ron (Steele) coming back." -- Coach Mark Gottfried, as told to TideSports.com, after learning two of the three players that initially entered the NBA draft -- Ronald Steele and Alonzo Gee -- will return. Richard Hendrix turned pro.

Since news is slow, let's hammer MG - and Phillip Pearson too - maybe one last time.If you don't listen to JOX during the day, go to http://www.roundtableradio.com/

Look down the left side and look for the interview with Altamont coach Barry Bearden talking about his point guard Gabe Harris. 6'2" 185#. Also list ...(more)

I keep hearing Bledsoe will end up JC -

If not, we were in real late to make a pitch. Bham News reporting he will announce Wednesday between KY and Memphis. No sour grapes, but if those are his choices, he's a one-and-done.


We may also have to consider that AG is looking for a serviceable PG to run the team, not BE the team. It looks like Eblen may well be that - I am hoping ...(more)

This was posted on a Bama B'ball blog - al.com

"Have seen the post on the southeast elite team out of huntsville.

They are in Little Rock, Arkansas and doing well but the reason I ask is because of who they have on their team.

Brandon Knight #1 in nation 09,

Luke Cothron #15 in Nation 09,

Trevor Lacey # 12 in nation 10,

Okay, spring practice is over, Andre's in Cinci, and JP's trying to hook on to the Falcons.
Sounds like Coffee is cooking at the Bay.

So let's talk hoops.
For you out of towners, here's the scoop from the Crimson Caravan:

BTW - For those out of state, The Blue Angels Air Show is in town this weekend. Went out to the airport yesterday with about 120,000 other people! Also, they were flying all over the place Friday, and they just flew over my house - show today also.

They are just unbelievable! Video and watching from other sites outside the airport don't do it justice.

Is T-Town great or what?? ...(more)

If you read the bball blog at al.com, forgive the redundancy.

I know spring practice is in full swing, but we still got a lot of work to do.Anybody heard anything on the staff or recruiting??Signing day is 4/15. I watched the McDonalds game last week, and had a change of heart about Cousins.

He's a one-and-done for sure, but man what a talent!

I don't believe UK has ...(more)
