Alabama

Hard to believe our first "real game" is only about 10 days away.

Anybody going to Dallas for the game? I'm thinking about it. I had originally planned on going down Thursday, and trying to go to the OU football game in Waco. I changed my mind on that. lol. But I still might try for the hoops game on Friday.

What do we know about Bama? Isn't Grant their coach? If so, and they are reasonably experienced, it will be a good test for our guards. I'm sure Grant knows how to teach pressure, and how to handle pressure, and we probably won't be able to simply overwhelm Bama with our athleticism like we will a lot of other OOC opponents.

The start of this reason really snuck up on me though. :krugs

I think there is a down and back bus trip for fans leaving from Norman. It might be something worth checking in to.

Alabama finished 2nd in the SEC last year. They missed the tourney, but, made it to the quarter finals of the NIT. They have several returning players from that team including a pre season all conference guard. It is a game that the staff thinks that they have a good chance to win.

I think a couple of their players transferred...

I think that is right. They had a 7 footer move on to some where else.

Yes I believed they had their 2nd best returning player transfer, and maybe one more. Their best player is returning along with some returning starters. I think the game could be a good measuring stick, even if it is our 1st game.
