This Alabama final four appearance reminds me a bit of Saban’s/ Bama’s first SEC champ game vs UF

The players had a great season but were not quite ready to take the next step that season. No, I’m not conceding the game just looking at the line and the huge challenge.

The other parallel is the way the bama players are so appreciative of the moment they are in; each minute the basketball team is being shown a diff side of the game: the attention, gifts, notoriety and playing in front of 60k plus.

I love the way this team is acting and saying all the right things. I also love the way our fans are acting. This is new and we are appreciative.

It is a tough task ahead of them but is this taste of how champions live be the difference next year and the season after ? Will the bball team take the next step because of this experience ?

Time will tell. All I can say is I’m enjoying watching this team experience the pinnacle of the big dance.
