I'm checking the Alabama message boards to see if they have a rule about not discussing spring football practice during the NCAA tournament. Somehow I doubt it! Their fans might be capable of enjoying both at the same time.

I seriously don't understand how this bothers people??? Somehow I'm capable of discussing spring football practice and also watching the basketball game on the same day. What is the problem exactly?

Tigers play baseball tonight too…should we care?

We still need 1-2 legit WRs

I think there's an expectation that Roc Taylor will step up big this year.

Corey Gammage would have been a great addition. What I heard about why he de-committed is that Marshall offered him more NIL money than we can.

Like I said you aren’t fooling anyone. What if someone posted about preseason basketball practice in the middle of football season. Your screen name says it all. Most of us here are fans of the University of Memphis which means all sports.

People here post about basketball all throughout football season and I have never complained about it. It's a message board! People can post about any sport they want any time they want. I still do not know how I am trying to fool people!

We still need 1-2 legit WR additions. Assuming we shored up our OL issues and now have reasonable depth? I think our forecasted TE tandem and RB room is solid. Our offense could be munched improved. WR is still a glaring gap.

Returning Roc Taylor, Joe Scates, and additions Tauskie Dove from Mizzou and Demeer Blankumsee the speedster from Toledo seem good.

Also still have Koby Drake and you never know when one of the young guys might step up such as Destun Thomas.

Marcello Bussey the Juco transfer is very quick.

I agree we could use one more but the WR room is not empty. I also really like the new WR coach Larry Smith.

Very disappointing we got outbid by Marshall for Corey Gammage (if that is what happened). We should have more money than freaking Marshall for crying out loud!

He used us to get more $$$. Period. Which is fine, b/c I like the others we brought in and have some young guys that are fast and have a chance to step up. D. Thomas, J. Hawkins and A. Mason is the transfer from Rice that has legit speed. Also, Tylan Dunn is a local kid that is a PFO, I believe. He's raw but is a beast physically.

We also still have Barry Switzer's grandson Zach in the WR room.

Yeah, b/c we've NEVER seen a basketball post on football gameday.

Side note, ran into the Women's Golf team at the Wharf in OB, AL. They are playing in a Tournament in Gulf Shores. Currently T-8 after the first round. I hope this post is allowed since B-ball is over.

I'm very concerned the basketball team doesn't get enough attention because the whole city is focused on the football team all the time.

Hey Bert - OB is our favorite playground. Hope you are eating some good seafood while there! Ooops, sorry all - forgot it’s a football thread (or a basketball complaint thread…).

HA!! Yep, we love LA (Lower Alabama). We got back Saturday night. Ready to make it my permanent home. Hopefully soon!!! Ate really well. OSO @ Bear Point, Yacht Club and Beach House in Gulf Shores (best happy hour on the beach).
