Dang, I don't have an up to date radio in my house. I've got an old Bama(probably 1990) radio that only picks up about 4 stations.lol Hopefully someone will hear what he says.

Got someone on Twitter to do it for us. He didn't say anything we don't already know. He believes UK has a slight lead for Petty, but likes our chances with Reese and Jones.

Thanks man! I'm hoping that Kentucky has bigger fish than Petty, then we can get him. With him struggling in ebyl, and swapping teams because he thought he wasn't getting enough shots hopefully it drops him down their list. Like I've said a few times, I think you can already add Alex Reese and Herb Jones. I think Reese has already privately committed.

I don't see Herb going anywhere but Bama. Reese will likely come to Bama but he's being recruited by a lot of others too like Cincy and Vandy. Petty needs to come here so bad

Yeah, Petty would be huge! The coaching change at Vandy really hurt their chances, if Stallings was still there they would be a threat . I'm not really concerned about Cincinnati as of right now. I haven't seen any evidence so far that suggests that he wants to play anywhere but close to home.

I'm going to say this BEFORE Petty goes to UK, so you guys don't think it's just sour grapes... We'll be fine without him. I don't think he's better than some of the other guys we'll get.

Yeah, we'll be fine without him. Still would be nice to get him. Like to keep the home state talent here.

You can tell he likes Avery and the fact that he coached in the nba. This is atleast the 3rd interview that he's mentioned that, and you can't go wrong with him. Whether that will get him to commit, we'll see. We will get 1 of him, Collin Sexton, or Cj Roberts for our pg .

One of his EYBL teammates thinks he is Cal bound.

We received a crystal ball pick for Jaren Jackson, which I found interesting. He's one of the most intriguing guys in the class. At 6'10 most project him as a PF, but he has the handles, coordination, and shot to possibly be a SF at the next level. Huge potential this one.
247 actually projects him as a 5-star SF.

So who are all the players we have crystal ball picks for? Jaren Jackson, Alex Reese, and Colin sexton? Who else?
Edit: looks like we don't have a crystal ball pick for Sexton but I thought someone said the other day that someone predicted him to Bama

Yeah, I posted highlights of him the other day. Dude can bring it down the court, hit 3's, and score with his back to the basket. His played and won a championship with Avery with the spurs.

It's not a crystal ball pick, but a sports writer picked Sexton to sign with us. Either from cbs or a guy from tidesports.com
Posted on 5/24/16 at 5:51 pm to Bamafan15
We also are 100 percent on Herb Jones, 50 percent on Rayshaun Hammonds, and 20 for Garrison Brooks, and 50 percent for Darius perry (pg #59 player in country ).

We don't have one for Sexton. I think we have a few for Herb Jones, one for Jamal Johnson (or did), one for Hammonds, and a couple for Brooks. That's it as far as I know.

It was Eric Bossi. He called it his "Way too Early Prediction". Wouldn't quite call it a confident guess.

Yeah, that's what it was. Thanks, I couldn’t remember who it was.
Posted on 5/24/16 at 6:02 pm to Chris78
Oh ok. Thanks. Well it's good to know we're in good enough contention for these players that were at least getting picks for them.
