also: Mike DeCourcy's SEC summary:

For the first time in a while, Kentucky has the league's best talent. The Wildcats have been the SEC's best team, but they haven't been talented enough for NCAA tourney success. Four gifted freshmen are changing that, though it might take awhile before they all understand Tubby Smith's approach. The power in the league is shifting to the SEC West, which could make it hard for Mississippi State and Alabama to prevail in the regular-season race.
