@JournoRyan she should be the first call and only call.

Hearing from several folks wanting Shelton State’s Madonna Thompson to be Alabama’s first call to replace Kristy Curry

@joecorona_real @GatorsMBK Literally let the guy catch it 35 ft and heading downhill.

Coaching malpractice by Golden of @GatorsMBK . 1. Don’t guard the inbounder 2. Don’t let them catch it moving up the floor. 3. Keep the ball in front of you. All of that led to leaving a shooter wide open. Your kids came all the way back for you to lose it.

@CBSSportsCBB Then wins the game!

Tensions are high in Tampa. Iowa & Florida had to be separated after this play.

@lady_valor_07 My family owned a restaurant for many years. I watched servers work hard , do hard things and handle difficult People. Many of them single mothers that were working for survival! I have always been a great tipper. Its the right thing to do and they deserve it.

@joecorona_real @BrodySmoot Bethea has never really got enough consistent minutes to get in any kind of flow. Love his rebounding ability and he has some dog in him. Good to have this time of year .

@BrodySmoot 4 starters locked: Philon, Wrightsell, Allen, & Sherrell. Probably depending on the opponent makes you vacillate between Mallett, Jemison, or Bol Bowen. I would prefer to bring Bethea off the bench - but please play him more.

It might not be a popular belief, but I would consider starting Bethea. He is hungry for an opportunity and has all of the tools to be a successful two guard. He is going to be a key part of the future of this program.

@joecorona_real @italksec Agree and hopefully players step up knowing they are needed. Have seen teams rally and seen them cash out. We need everyone to step up.

Hate it if it’s true for Bizz. He is one of ours, and he is worthy of support. With that being said, here is what I guess going forward. 1. Defensive numbers will take a jump. 2. Offensive numbers may wane a bit till guys figure out the void. 3. Rebounding will go up.

@tpg031122 @rollbamaroll Spacing was terrible two players behind trailing and sherrell and mallette Brought their defenders in Philons space. Cluster from the start. I like chances with Philon but he basically had Nothing.

@rollbamaroll People saying Oats should have called a timeout don't know ball. Best player with the ball going downhill, you can't draw that up. What saved Ole Miss was pulling the extra guy off the FT line, and even then, 9/10 times Philon finds a shooter for an open 3.

Those using hindsight from the Alabama game should note that neither coach called timeout, and both teams made clutch buckets in transition.

@__whatley__ Not been the same player since whatever happened for him to miss Tenn game

The Amari Allen regression got me seeing the vision of a Round of 32 exit for this team.

@joecorona_real Ole miss Missouri Auburn Oklahoma A@M

If you were a coach, rank the order of the roster you would rather coach: Ole Miss Oklahoma Auburn A&M Missouri This isn’t bubble talk, which roster.

Maybe Ole Miss is just playing well? 4 days in a row cant be luck or Just poor performance from other team. March is madness for a reason! @OleMissSports

@bamaperspective @ChaseGoodbread I dont mind the play on but floor spacing was awful! You call a timeout, speead the floor, Alabama has a chance to get an open shot or tough two from Philon

I actually think no timeout was the right call. Don't let a Chris Beard defense get organized and fully set. I think Oats is covering for Philon here a bit. Had your NBA point guard going downhill with a decent angle at the basket. Tried to make the right basketball play when he thought Sherrell could get an even *better* look, but Ole Miss recovered too quickly.

Nate Oats says he should've called a timeout on Alabama's last possession to set up a play.

@TheLegend120139 @AlabamaMBB Time out, get the floor spread and let him go. Put 4 shooters around him and if they sale out on philon, you get Open shot for win. Also allowing them to advance ball on inbounds without fouling quickly was bug mistake. I think 12.8 and we took 5 sec to foul? Big 5 Sec!

@AlabamaMBB 🏀 Come on Philon really! You got to put that up!.. disappointing! All year long Nate Oats would bench someone for passing up a 3 for a ten footer and tonight we put up twenty ten footers 🤔 The least little pressure turned the Tide into a entirely different team.

@aldotcomTide Dont even have to watch this — Holloway, Holloway, Holloway - even his misses look good

Who’s got the purest shot on Bama’s roster? 🏀🐘 #RollTide #Alabama #collegebasketball

Excited to install this awesome video wall for @WARRIORNATION20 They have a story to tell with multiple State Championships and All State players to keep it busy year around!@CoachVPitts @coachmarkf @RecruitWarriors @boostrdisplays @AL7AFootball @BSNSportsdotcom @BSNSportsAL

Lets Go!!!

@mikerodak Bad list

Alabama’s Labaron Philon did not make the cut to the final five for the Bob Cousy Award as the nation’s top point guard. The five finalists are Jaden Bradley, Darius Acuff, Kingston Flemings, Jeremy Fears and Braden Smith.

@CoachCurtWeeks has done a tremendous job with this team. Play hard, fundamentally sound and never Wavered when down today.

@joecorona_real @BamaRoundball @bryantm235 And he looks healthy.

@BamaRoundball @bryantm235 Always been our best on ball defender since he got here.

Wrightsell had a significant impact on the defensive end as well. Just a massive performance.

@_NickKelly @rogerpatmyers Totally agree. I would say missed on a few transfers, injuries galore and we are still 12-4 in league. Oats is running a very solid program year in and year out. Impressive what he has accomplished in Tuscaloosa.

This is not Nate Oats’ best Alabama team (not even sure it’s top 3), but it doesn’t lack for grit. An impressive year thus far for an imperfect team
