Arkansas has three potential lottery picks lol, yes their roster is better. Alabama is also better, wait until Oscar tries to deal with their length on Saturday. With that being said Oscar at least should neutralize some of their talent because he is a great college player and a veteran, the same with Wheeler, CJ, etc., but that is where coaching comes into play and clearly we are not better than them in that department either.

IDK, and IDC... I haven't delved into this teams and we haven't played them. Cal is sucking, but I am not going to agree with you that this is an extremely good team with another coach.
That's fine, I get it, but Cal's methods are not working, everytjing he has done up to this point, has wrecked any progress they would have been making. These guys look disinterested, broken and ready to just be fone with this. So, to me, it's very easy to see how other coaches would have this team rocking right now.

I've asked the "who has a better roster" question in multiple threads over the last few weeks, so far, only one person answered and he said "Alabama and Arkansas", which is certainly not true, not even close.

The answer is, nobody has a roster that is better than ours. Oscar and Wallace put this team over the top. 3 elite shooters, top 7 lottery pick, another first rounder, multiple seniors in the starting lineup, long, big, athletic and a 2 time SEC assist leader. I don't see a roster out there that is equal to, or better.

Who are these 3 lottery picks that Arkansas has? Nick Smith and who? From what I know, they have 3 freshmen McDonalds AA's, but that doesn't mean they are lottery picks. Anthony Black and Ricky Council are listed as first rounders, but not lottery.

As far as Alabama's length, it's not much different than what they had last year and UK swept them. Beat them once without Tyty and Wheeler.

Now, Alabama has Brandon Miller, he's a lottery pick, but other than that, they have Clowney, not a lottery pick, but a first rounder and nobody that is at Oscar's level.

Based on NBA draft picks, there is an argument that can be made for Alabama and Arkansas, but college titles aren't won by teams loaded with NBA draft picks, college titles are won by teams that are built almost exactly like UK's is. I still take UK's roster over theirs and not even think twice about it.

It’s funny that we didn’t suck in the Bahamas, everyone in college Bball thought we would be elite. Only Cal said we would suck, he sure has made us suck. He recruited the team. He coaches them.
That’s what I can’t wrap my head around. And look I know those weren’t like world beater teams but damn.

I'm no Nostradamus, but if everyone else doesn't see my viewpoint as good; except for other one person... my viewpoint, just may not be correct. It may not be wrong, but may not be right, just sayin.
