THE GOOD NEWS
Ronald Steele, arguably the top point guard in the conference when he was healthy, could return next season after sitting out the year recovering from surgery on his knees. Steele isn't a lock to be on the floor given his medical history, but the team said being on the court for SEC play in January is a good goal for him to strive for.

THE BAD NEWS
Richard Hendrix entered the NBA draft. Mykal Riley, who led the Tide's late surge, is definitely gone because he is a senior.

KEY RETURNEES
Preface this with a big "I-F" ... The return of Steele and Hendrix is possible, and with them the Tide should make a significant step up. Alonzo Gee also showed he can be a threat from 3-point range, though he is streaky. Yamene Coleman, a 6-9 sophomore, began to show signs he could make a significant contribution next season. G Brandon Hollinger can be more effective if he is relieved of point guard responsibilities.

ROSTER REPORT

--Richard Hendrix, who averaged a double-double for the Tide (17.8 ppg, 10.1 rpg) as a junior, has put his name in the NBA draft but won't hire an agent to allow him the option of withdrawing before the June 16 deadline.

--G Mykal Riley has scored 70 points in his last three games and gone 18-of-37 from behind the 3-point arc.

I watched the Michigan vs Creighton game so I've seen both teams play. I think both Alabama and Michigan are equally matched. This is going to be a tough.. close game. I'll most likely watch this game. What's everyone else's opinion?

I know we still have two games before the Purdue game and a kinda big game for the football team, but clear you schedules for December 12th and have your butt in Coleman Coliseum to cheer us on against Purdue. Let's make Coleman loud and crazy!

After a nice win against Providence, how does everyone think we will fare in this tournament. Hopefully we can get off to good start in the tournament and beat Baylor in the opening game.

Bama Defeated Jackson State Last night, wondering if anyone had any thought on the game? I listened to nearly the whole thing and it seems like this team plays with alot of heart, I think its going to be a tough season for us, but ill be right there pulling for my tide the whole time. We really lack a player who can put the ball on the floor and drive to the basket as well as a good spot up shoote ...(more)

Good win last night against a team I think is just as good as Cornell. We have enough talent to push the better teams. I think we're headed for maybe a 9-7 sec record, no better. It's good to see a nice crowd and the program headed in the right direction. RTR.

Ok this one counts. I'll be there in Coleman Saturday. I've heard that the crowds for the first two games were big. I'm hoping we have a big crowd Saturday. Cornell won't be a push over. I read where they're one of the best team out of the Ivy in a long time. They're also predicted to win two games in the NCAA. This will be a good game I'm telling you. Go to the game, football pregame on ride home ...(more)

Hey guys, in case you weren't able to go to the game tonight or didn't hear about the result..

We won 81-53.

Our overall style was very uptempo with a hard/scrappy defense. Defensively we looked like an elite squad, but our offense was pathetic at times. We knew that our offense was going to be 'iffy' considering our talent at the guard position. While it was dull for so
