I already know the story on Ray. This ain't baseball.

How exactly do you think Ray will get the best basketball prospect in the nation, given that up until now, he's never been capable of signing even a 4-star prospect?

What does 18 games mean? I seem to recall being lectured about how 20 games doesn't mean squat anymore. You get 13 for showing up and having a scholarship program in the SEC. What so that means he wins 4 or 5 more games against a bunch of horrible SEC teams...so that's gonna be real progress after 3 years? For basketball? Or do we have a special category of progress for Rick "the assistant" Ray?

We won 17 or more games in 12 of 14 seasons before Ray, so I sure hope the Rick "the assistant" Ray can get 18 against a putrid SEC West in year 3.
