Lollipop pass by Lewis intercepted and score for RI. 79-69 RI. Jones back in game and he scores.

We have 48 points in the paint which is saving us so far. 28/59 FG 49%, 81-73 URI.

6’9” Davis has come alive for Bama, scoring, rebounding, & defense. Bolden with wild 3 point attempt after we close gap to 5 points.

Turnovers have killed us in this game. Totally unacceptable. 93-79 URI. FINAL

I tried to warn you this would be a building year.

Well we gave all the others a bunch of years to get ready, so CNO deserves 5 years to see what he can do. RTR!

Avery Johnson was fired after 4 years, which is about right, 4 years to show steady improvement. In the past we did not have a professional-type AD. We had ex-coaches or players. Now, you must have someone who understands finance, be a fund raiser and alumni-friendly, has a broad vision of what needs to be done in all areas of athletics, and more. South Carolina is in trouble over Muschamp because their AD is a former baseball coach.

Always knew it would be a rebuilding year, but still think we will see some improvement. After 3 games out of 30, can’t really say too much. So far, the same 2 problems continue to linger, turnovers and awful 3 point shooting. Maybe players like Petty are just not going to ever improve. Who knows?

My question is, just how good is Penn and RI.? I thought out %'s were really bad. RTR!

Good question. RI was returning several starters, their coach as been there several years, they beat Oklahoma in the NCAA Tourney last year and made the Tourney in 2017, too. Atlabntic 10 conference is a solid BB conference. Penn made the Tourney in 2017, won 19 games last year, & have an experienced coach who’s been there 5 years.

I think you have already seen improvement this year with the hustle.  I don't think and AJ coached team could have made the comeback like Bama did in part of the game last night.  Are they where they need to be, not yet.  As people have said they turn the ball over way too much.  They also missed too many inside short shots.  I do think you see better movement of the ball compared to the last few years.
