Damn, Tavin's dunk was pretty. Surely we can all agree on that, right?

6 - I really really like Benjamin. Has the heart of a 6'8" big in the 5'10" body. He dribbles too deep and gets swatted or turns it over in the half court way too much. they need to coach him to not do this.

7 - I'm disgusted with losing but winning last night was great. I love watching UAB basketball.

6 - Benjamin is the reason why teams switch into press. He's struggled with it all season. Seems like Ehsan is learning to have Brinson bring the ball in on those plays more.

7 - Totally agree.

No. I think that's been a sore spot for Lovan from the beginning...

wasn't Giddy Potts holding a grudge against UAB and always kicked our butt when it mattered? I thought I read that on here but it might have been urban legend.

Boyce did the opposite. Left us standing at the alter, came into Bartow in Dec and drained a three as soon as he hit the floor.

I don’t remember anyone more motivated against us than Jeff Hodge. As I recall, he was a local player that we passed on that went to South Alabama. I was glad to see him complete his eligibility.

Sentiment of the fans, but I'm not sure it's the sentiment of the administration. I hope we win the conference tournament though.

We didn’t recruit Potts per his HS coach and he would have come here. He wanted to do well against us but not sure he held a grudge. He was just good. Was told he was a good kid as well.

He could’ve changed the course of our program somewhat. His shooting is something we have missed for quite some time.

Somewhat. We would have gotten the NCAA conference tournament auto bid instead of MTSU.

Still only 1 team from the conference would have gotten the bid.
