It may be March, but basketball season on the Southside is over. The 2016-2017 Men’s Basketball season was full of many ups and downs, but to many it seemed more down. Don’t get me wrong, it was not a bad season, but, especially coming off of a school record of 26 wins last season, it was definitely a disappointing season.

UAB Men’s Basketball Head Coach Robert Ehsan finished his first season with a record of 17-16 (9-9). While this record was definitely not the best, or indicative of the team’s’ true ability, it certainly could have been much worse.
