Thiero has a lot of potential but this is pretty off base. Omier can play an undersized 5 at the high major level. Thiero...can't..

Thiero was a guard who grew into a three who is growing into a four. He has a combination of skills, not fully developed.

Quote from: Snout team on April 21, 2024, 08:14:25 amI have never, in my life, seen an easier football schedule for an SEC team.

If Missouri is not in the playoffs this year Drink should be fired.

That's crazy stuff right there.  Looks like they moved to the sunbelt.

Quote from: Birminghog on Yesterday at 11:18:39 pmOut of Arkansas, TN, A&M & Clemson, only Arkansas was playing a ranked team this weekend , and we were playing #8. Here's how the four teams came out.
   Arkansas lost a road series at #8 Kentucky, 2 games to 1
   Tennessee won a road series at unranked Florida, 2 games to 1
   A&M lost a road series at unranked LSU, 2 games to 1
   Clemson won a home series against unranked Georgia Tech, 2 games to 1

I fail to see how that justifies any drastic poll movement except Kentucky moving a few spots up. I kind of get it if Tennessee jumps us to #2 & we drop to #3, but only kind of. We also won a road series 2 games to 1 at unranked Florida. Clemson home series 2 to 1 win over an unranked team? Meh.

The Florida series was at home, to me it should be Tenn., Clemson, Kentucky, Ark., then aTm, but they will probably keep aTm ahead of us so we'll probably be ranked 5th. Good position with 2 series left with ranked teams just have to win the home series with Miss. State


Also have to win at least 1 game at aTm. Really tuff finish just can't fall on our face now

Vols looks like the best team in the SEC and maybe in the country now.

Quote from: ALLVOL on April 30, 2024, 08:15:50 amHe literally benched JA in the elite 8 for JP Estrella, a true freshman and JP was significantly more physical against Edy.

This is true, for that particular game. He didn't seem to know what to do against Edey, maybe a little intimidated. The Freshman didn't know what to do either but was much more physical.
Nevertheless, Aidoo is still one of the better Big-Men out there and should be able to man the post quite well on most nights. 

Quote from: kingofdequeen on Yesterday at 10:00:02 amCalipari is a HOF coach and 65 years of age paid in excess of 8M per annum.  He coached Marcus Camby for crissakes.   You think he's filling out forms???

Maybe scantrons?

You don't feel good about him or Suggs?

Quote from: SquidBilly on Today at 06:29:43 amWe played Florida at Baum Walker so that wasn't a home series loss for them.  Also A&M has another road series loss to LSU you didn't mention in your original post.  What it boils down to for us now is if we defend our home field this weekend with a sweep of Miss State that puts us at 20 SEC wins.  Win one at A&M this last reg season series and we get to 21.  That exceeds what we did last year when we won the division with 20 wins and should no doubt have us slotted in as a top 8 national seed.

If we get to 21 wins we are back in the discussion for number 1 overall seed in my opinion.   

20 keeps us very comfortable top 8 seed.  18 or less and we are seriously sweating top 8, not factoring any SECT
