    they passed out 5*s like candy then. None of those guys compares to the 5* talent at Duke, NC, Ky, etc who turn into pros each year. Hathaway was awful

    Between this and a comment about never seeing a season like this ever again, I think you need to recalibrate how you perceive your basketball program. We're riding high right now, but it isn't the first peak we've had. And there is no reason to think we can't sustain success going forward. If it wasn't for a BBQ we never leave the top 25 since the Pearl days. This program has self-sabotaged my entire life, and that has now stopped. If Florida could win back to back titles, if Arkansas can win a title, we can win titles.

    Hathaway was going to be a very good player until he had some medical issues and was never the same again.

    I've always said this program could/should be one of the top 15 or so in basketball. We have everything necessary to be one, but the will and the coach has never been quite right except for Pearl for about 4 years.

    After that blood clot he was never the same.

    Ask John Henderson what Hathaway was like before that.

    Just curious, what are you counting as the necessary things?

    There were 30 5 stars the year Crews was recruited. There have been 31 each of the last two years.

    We havent had a 6'7 5* guard come in with skills like the lefty kid coming. Weve also been #1 and had this record twice in my 48 years. Grant williams is about to be btb poy and we are ginna win 30 games. I dont think it will be commonplace. Maybe it will, but we dont have an admiral, grant or Bone on the roster now or committed. Yet. Nor do we have 1 big man with proven minutes outside of Fulk. If DJ was ready he woulda played

    I'll take todays top 30 vs crews, ramar, tiny harris and Yarbrough type top 30 all day. More developed, better skills, better trained. Harris couldnt hold Bones jock.

    How things change though. 2 weeks ago this team was done and Barnes had mismanaged them, many here posted.

    It’s easy to overreact. Maybe they ride this wave to a final four run. Maybe the problems they have do them in. It’s not like anyone was reacting to something they weren’t seeing on the floor.

    As a fan I reserve the right to overreact and kneejerk to any situation that arrives. My actions, reactionary or not, have zero affect on the team.

    What is there to being a fan if not to be fanatical?

    Hell, some people said this team was going to finish 2-2 about a week ago.

    Still may. think 26-3 will be hard to match in the future. Thats all. If you expect that, fine, but you will probably be disappointed.

    I want championships. Everything else is always and will always be disappointing. I'm comfortable with that.
