Can we bring back...

That's because that's what you want your eyes to see...take an unbiased look at things and look at the actual talent on both team. Alabama has the 2nd most talent in the SEC, so no we aren't more talented than them, no matter how many times you say it.

Watch the game tomorrow and get back to me.

I watched the last Bama game, and they appear more talented...I'd say we are better at maybe 2-3 spots. Their guard play is clearly superior to ours, it's not even really a debate.

Starting 5:

Releford>Mcbee
Lacey<McRae
Randolph>Richardson
Cooper>Hall
Gueye<Stokes


Bench:
Jacobs>Yemi
Pollard>Reese
Steele<Golden

Quit reading at Randolph being better than Richardson.

It's true.

They have similar mid-range games and both have the potential to be lock down defenders. Randolph is easily the better 3-point shooter.

Tennessee definitely has the advantage down low and needs to exploit it. Alabama has one of the best backcourts in the conference.

That was the toughest one for me...orange glasses say josh, but you ask a tide fan I'm sure it's the other way. Their numbers are almost identical, except Randolph is a much better 3pt shooter and averages a much better a:to.

So move on to their recruiting rankings Richardson was 124 and Randolph was 30...so any attempt you're trying to make at that comparison being so one sided is flat out uneducated.

Losing Maymon definitely hurt, especially since Stokes has not lived up to his potential. Cuonzo deserves another year to see how much Maymon improves the team and ifHubbs pans out. My worry, though - most of these players, sans McRae, have regressed. If Cuonzo can't get it done next year, we need to bring Pearl back. The show cause will be over, and he's still in Knoxville. This is not like idiot Gruden talk - this remains a real possibility.

Not a bad idea, he had his best stretch when he was playing with buzz's players, I bet he could do good with Hubbs and Stokes...

It's FAR from a "real possibility".

So after seeing them head to head today, do you still think bamer has a more talented team? UT has more talent, UAT has the better coach. Talent won today.

You'll never admit to Martin out coaching anyone, so I wouldn't expect you to say otherwise.

However, do the research, Alabama has the more talented roster, and it's not even really close. You wanna say Richardson>Randolph, well he wasn't coming out of high school so I guess he has a coach that has really developed him nicely huh?

Research? I've seen them play two games against each other in the last couple of weeks. With that evidence you still say UaT has more talent and it's not even close? Not sure what to tell you.

How are you determining who is better than who coming out of high school between Raldolph and Richardson? This should be interesting.

I'm sorry Anthony grant hasn't developed his talent, idk what to tell you. On paper Alabama has the 2nd most talent in the SEC, and that's a fact. If they don't play like it, maybe it's a result of the head coach????

Other than Stokes and McRae, who else would start for Bama that is on UT's roster? UT had one inside player that was dominant, but Bama has a decided advantage at the guard position. It isn't even close.

Look at every scouting service that ranks the 2 of them, really not that complicated. Randolph was a very highly ranked recruit, Richardson not so much.
