1. Tennessee’s Bruce Pearl says he needs more leadership from his players. Point guard Melvin Goins says more leadership is needed “from the top all the way down.” Uh-oh.

2. Guard Scotty Hopson says yesterday’s practice was “as physical as it gets.”

3. Vanderbilt will have to bring its A-game to Rupp Arena tonight… where Kentucky’s seven SEC wins have come by an average of 17.9 points.

4. A win by the Commodores would wrap up a #2 seed and a bye in the SEC Tournament.

5. Alabama can capture the SEC regular-season title with an upset of Florida in Gainesville tonight.

6. If they win the SEC’s regular-season title, this writer says Bama deserves an NCAA bid.

7. Anthony Grant says he’ll have some emotions returning to Gainesville where he served on Billy Donovan’s staff.
