I heard this from someone on the on3 Bama site but I guess its worth sharing too. Trent Perrys most recent follow on instagram is Preston Murphy. I dont buy into these things too much, but there is some smoke out there for us regarding Ballo and Perry, especially Perry. It may mean nothing though.

Grant Nelson was following mainly bama people for a couple of weeks before he officially connitted last year so sometimes you can read into it, sometimes it means nothing.

I do think we land Perry if Sears ends up leaving, not sure if we do if Sears stays but its also a possibility. I think they both could start. Perry would be a good 2 guard, not sure if he would be down woth playing the 2 though if Sears stays, Perry wants to play PG. We’ll see.

Someone grab Grant’s phone and follow a bench press machine real quick. I’m trying to see something

We’re no longer at the place where we’re promising starting spots to top 50 freshmen, outside of the bonafide starter types. I doubt Perry would start either way, but definitely not if Sears comes back. Wrightsell or Griffen would play the 2 in that scenario. I think we’d grab a portal 1 to at least compete with Perry even if Sears leaves.

To me, this recruiting class could lay the groundwork for a future of Bama basketball where we get star players to stay and develop until they are ready for the NBA. We have 3 (possibly 4 if Perry commits) top 50 guys that could all realistically be backups next year if everyone comes back. That’s Duke and Kentucky level right there and it’s where we need to get to if we want the program to be a perennial Final 4 contender.

I would love to get the other Sears out of the portal to go along with Ballo!
