What an arrogant ass! He just can't admit he is personally responsible.

In other words, let a bunch of college players sacrifice their big moment to please the union.

Here's another athlete the Tide is looking at.

I doubt San Diego St. would be making any long runs if they had to play UK, Florida, Miss. State, Georgia, Ole Miss, & Alabama during the season.

We need to play a good schedule and end up with an RPI of 25-35 to ensure we don't get overlooked again. We will have an outstanding team next year, if Greene returns. If he leaves early, we can be good, but it will be a struggle. We need him for the inside power game. I expect Mitchell, Releford, & Hankerson to be better outside shooters next year.

I tried your link and it told me I wasn't a member of the group. I tried to sign up for the group and it said it was not a private group. I can't win either way.

 

At least he picked a good place to move to. It must be bad for him to move so far from Ohio. I hope he will go into more detail to explain exactly what the fans were doing that caused him to move.



 

The OOC always matters because it will afect not only our selection for the NCAA Tourney and your seeding in the tourney. Much easier to be a 3 seed instead of a 9 seed.

The game was in the Virgin Islands and the field was weak. We lost all three games there, all cupcakes. Seton Hall hasn't been good in a while. We are playing in the Puerto Rico Tipoff in 2011 and the field looks very strong. Teams include:

Wichita State  24-8 in 2010
Maryland    19-14
Purdue     25-7
Temple     25-7
Iona      22-11
Colorado    21-13

This is a good-looking field and one more team is to be added.

Not sure they have to. We pay him $1.8 mil a year. I doubt Georgia Tech will pay more or even try, but no way can they match us if we want to keep Grant.

BB games are mostly scheduled on a yearly basis, unless you have a game home & away series with a team, like we did with Purdue. Coach Grant can definitely put together a very good schedule next year if he wants to. BB is very flexible with a different schedule possible every year.

We all know, by now, that the Tide did not get invited to the Big Dance this year. What everyone has to accept is this was no one's fault by the TIde BB team, not the refs, not the NCAA Committee, but the fault of the team. The team failed miserably in November & December and lost to cupcakes it should have crushed. Plus, Coach Grant scheduled a high school level of talent to play early in the season. Teams such as:

UAH (exhibition game we won by 5 points)

Florida A&M
Troy
Alabama A&M
South Alabama
Southeastern Louisiana
Lipscomb
Peppedine
Toledo

This has happened before when Gottfried scheduled a bunch of cupcakes, but after being snubbed by the NCAA, he started playing better teams and we started making the Dance. I think the team exceeded Grant's expectations and we will be MUCH better next year.


 

Ecellent story and good info. Not much has changed, the Barn still whines and snivels every chance it gets.
