    Well done Dawgs!

    Great effort and teamwork!

    The Dawgs have the most effective bench and stifling defense, I think I've ever seen em have. And, definitely, not with a solid offense at the same time. Lol

    And, healthy, too?. Like i said last week.…"they're peaking at the perfect time"....IMO. They're shown a grittines and attention to detail that's required, just to get to the final four.

    The Dawgs have truly been through a "trial by fire", by facing an SEC gauntlet of "ranked teams" like i've never seen....or heard of. They won't face any better than they've already faced.

    They're ready...IMO. I hope they get to play Auburn in the SECC. I'd like to see the before and after contrast. Lol. Plus, Auburn is the best i've seen, so far.

    Go get en Big Red...Own It!

    Definitely peaking at the right time. Could be trouble for a few teams in the Big Dance if we make it and I think we will

    Well, I guess I was wrong about the Dawgs not being a serious contender for making the Big Dance…my heartfelt apologies for being so doubtful, but they were playing so darn poorly for a long stretch! Think that week off not long ago helped them get back focused, and having Lawrence back in the lineup definitely helped. Looks like they are playing just about their best ball of the season right now and more players contributing…Cain is my favorite! Hopefully we can make a respectable showing in the SEC Tourney before the MADNESS starts!!

    GO DAWGS!!

    First, One of the Dawgs best games of the season. If they could play every 1st half like they did against Florida, Texas, & S. Carolina & then play every 2nd half like they did today against Vandy, the Dawgs could compete with anybody.

    Second, take care of business in Nashville next week before talking about going dancing. It appears the Dawgs will have a horrible draw with both the opponent and having the final game of day one. With a bad opening round loss, those bubbles they are floating on can pop very quickly. Keep the focus!

    Finally, it looks as if Newell will be a mid 1st round pick in the June draft, He could use another yr to work on his consistency, while adding muscle & weight but with most of the top draft picks these days being freshman, he really has to go while he’s hot. I guess there’s not that much difference between $50+ & $25+ million. Either way you’re rich. Sure would like to see what he could do with the ne more year in Athens.

    very proud of the Dawgs. As a long time suffering Dawg basketball fan from 1980 (when I moved back to GA), we don't have very many years to be proud of our basketball team like this year.

    Coach has done a really good job of turning things around with that week off and building off of it. Learned how to win instead of blowing leads nearly every time in the 2nd half of games, that is not an easy thing to overcome at all. Especially with it happening game after game after game. That is what was needed and coach and the players did it. Fantastic job!

    Now, keep it that way, stay focused, because it will likely rear its head again at some point. Just be ready to fight through it to get the win when the season matters most, like you guys have learned to do.

    IMO.…When you play defense as aggressively as the Dawgs, you have to have a deep bench to stay out of foul trouble. That's what White has been developing throughout the season, at the expense of a few games. At the Bye week....he decided, either we're ready or we're not. And, he turned em loose to make a run.

    I think Mike White was confident enough, in the team he put together, that he knew he could get away with losing a few games, to gain experience on the bench.

    White was well aware of the individual talents he had recruited....but, needed everybody playing as a team, to take advantage of those talents. You can only do that by playing "together" on the court and this group of Dawgs was "just" put together over the last year....[with few exceptions].

    Now....they have a full season behind em and the Freshmen and Sophomores are playing like Juniors and Seniors. They are ready to break out....and I'm ready for em to break out.

    I don't think we've seen the Dawgs best basketball, yet. I have a feeling.…they're about to shock the world. Lol
