JOHNSON'S TEAM BATTLES OREGON TO THE WIRE MINUS TWO STARTERS
JUSTIN COLEMAN STEPS IN AND PLAYS HIS TOP GAME...
You have to love Avery Johnson and his band of underdog marauders. After taking a lead into the second half, the lack of depth caught up with the Tide. A sub-par outing by Retin Obasahan didn't help, neither did the lack of two starters. The Tide gave it all they had, but in the long run heart wasn't enough.
But this blog post isn't about the Oregon game. It's about the magic that I'm starting to feel about Tide hoops again. There are going to be some tough nights this season. We all know that. But there are going to be some good ones as well. I suspect that in the long run the good ones will far outweigh the bad ones. Avery Johnson has no idea of the Christmas present he has give the Tide fans.
So, I'd like to say to Avery - thanks coach. Thanks for the hope you are giving us in the future of Tide basketball. I want to tell our fans this as well. When this man gets the players he is going to give us all a lot of Merry Christmas mornings. From my wife, Sharon, my daughters, Rachel and Tasha, and from the grandkids, Ryder and Caroline, Merry Christmas to all of you.
