    WW MOFO. I’m not even sure he isn’t maximizing the talent he has at his disposal. We’ve had stretches where we look like a legit NCAAT team, which seems like a miracle based on how we started the season.

    The 10 minute lapses are frustrating as hell though. And the six minute game we work on so much... five of those six minutes is chaos but then we grit out another W. Damned if it isn’t the almost exact feeling I had with Miles, except my gut says WW is actually competent.

    I think Alleva and F**KING own a lot of the deficiencies this year. WW might be crazy enough to overcome even that.

    There was a point when I thought Miles might be a genius. Up to the NC I thought he was balls, but then he won the whole fucking thing.

    We have won 23 of the last 25 isn't it now. We are undefeated alone atop the sec. You don't blow out teams in basketball. There are runs and lulls just about every game everywhere. Which team do you think doesn't.

    You might be right; I still support Wade. Ten minute droughts and nailbiters don’t seem like the norm to me, but there is parity and a general lack of skill in basketball. Net product has suffered greatly.

    I know WW wouldn't want to embarrass Shaka but with a 16 point lead in the second half I hoped we would maintain a comfortable lead and win by 8 to 12 with no nailbiting.

    Sharps ended up hammering Texas who went off as the favorite. Texas was - 1. Total was 143 went over at 146.

    Two Inside SEC Analysts just said LSU is getting zero respect in the rankings for the Will Wade FBI tape scandal and that LSU is 5 fingers one fist and LSU is the best team in the SEC right now. Ranked 27th last week these AP guys might keep sticking it to us but our Inside SEC guys think we’re a Top 10 team right now.

    Next up Alabama at PMAC Wed night 6PM

    Tejas did get red hot there for a bit, couldnt miss throwing it up. But the kids kept their heads. Thats the important takeaway.

    They are correct. AP is a popularity contest. Net is what matters.
