Title: "Tide expects invitation to big dance" Post by: Chechem on March 11, 2012, 05:11:07 AM http://annistonstar.com/bookmark/17834207?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+AnnistonStar%2FTideSports+%28Anniston+Star+Tide+Sports%29
Quote The lone speckle of crimson in a sea of blue, a group of Alabama basketball players posed for a few Bourbon Street pictures Friday evening. It was a common sight for the teams eliminated from the SEC tournament earlier that day not far from New Orleans’ famed French Quarter. Even coach Anthony Grant took in the sights briefly. But today, it’s back to work for the Crimson Tide. The program is expected to hear its name called by the NCAA tournament selection committee for the first time in seven seasons this evening. Projections have Alabama (21-11) landing as high as a No. 8 seed in one of the four regions when brackets are released starting at 5 p.m. on CBS.

If the Ole Miss loss is indicative of what kind of play to expect, then we may have been better off in the NIT getting some extended play and needed tourney experience. RTR

RTR Naw; at this point it's al about building the program and recruiting. Enjoy.

It would be nice if they can win a couple of games but that is asking for a lot, there are a lot of good teams in the tournament this year.
A friend of mine went to the Tip Off Club meeting this past week and someone asked the AC that was speaking about the TM issue and where it stood as far as him returning to the team. His answer was that this issue is strictly between CAG and TM and no one else on the staff knows anything about where it stands at this point in time. I guess we will just have to wait and see what the conclusion is. |
