Happy St Patrick's Day! I hope you either remembered to wear green, or you read this early enough that it's a reminder to do so!

BASKETBALL

Coach Flo's Tigers aren't just succeeding on the court, they're succeeding in the classroom, too. They lead the SEC in academics.

Part 2 of our 2015-16 basketball postmortem is up. Read on and find out who we think are the Most Valuable Player, Most Improved Player, Biggest Impact Player, Best Newcomer, etc.

SOFTBALL

So how did Softball's game in Birmingham against Samford go? Oh, it went well. It was an 18-1 no-hitter (yes, they scored and it was still a no-hitter) in 5 innings.

SWIMMING & DIVING

You need to read this profile of Auburn swimmer Jill Vitarius just to see her nicknames. Those are incredible. The 2016 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships began last night in Atlanta.

FOOTBALL

We're just past the middle of the week for Spring Break 2016 at Auburn University, and the football team is taking the week off, too. So, I decided to look back on the first 1/3 of Spring Practice and discuss what we know so far.

So Devaroe Lawrence has some big goals for this season. Some really big goals. If he improves on the way he finished 2016, then I could see him being in the conversation to achieve those goals. I certainly hope he manages it!

Marcus Davis is the senior leader for the wide receiver corps, and he's there to help the freshmen and other young guys with any and all questions they might have.

A couple of former Auburn linebackers are dealing with injuries as they prepare for the NFL. It really should be a trio with Justin Garrett's hamstring issue during Pro Day.
