Breaking Down the Schedule - Saturday 1/19 @Alabama & Wednesday 2/6 @ Hump


Mark Gottfried has been quoted as saying "As Steele goes, Bama goes." With Steele taking a redshirt lets hope that's the case b/c they have still have some shooters and Hendrix is a load down inside. Bama shouldn't be the media darling as it was last season. I think Bama will be as good as the players who step up to replace Steele. They are a load down low and their guards will have to camp out around the perimeter and knock down some threes to compete this season. Riley was the only consistent shooter at the Hump last season and they could rely heavily on him again. They will miss Davidson, but will look for soph. Yamene Coleman to step up this season. We could see bama play with a smaller lineup as MSU has the last 2 seasons, if you can call it that with Gee playing on the wing. AL is a team we need to sweep to compete this season. We blew them out in the Hump and Steele stole our thunder in T-Town last year. If our 2's and 3's can shoot the ball we should take care of business with bama. If Bama struggles this season, look for bama fans to turn the heat up on Gottfried.

Romans 3:22 This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference,

www.collegehoops.net just listed us as #23 in the naton, with a decent write-up.

We finally have an edge on Bama with perimeter shooting on the wing. ZD

Gottfried won't feel any heat from this season, regardless.

Coleman is minimally talented...Hendrix will be all alone inside.

Alabama will not compete seriously in the SEC this season.

Jemison and the big Freshman Knox, who is at least 6'9", aren't bad though, are they?

Coleman is coming off the bench. The starting lineup looks to be Torrance, Riley, Gee, Hendrix, and Jemison. The team supposedly is going to be more up tempo.
