Just checked BOL and I don't see any mention of that crystal ball pick. I don't think they care too much about basketball over there. There's never anything but football over there. I understand it being mostly football but u gotta have SOME basketball. Nobody even discusses it much over there like we do here. But as soon as we make a run in the tourney one year everyone will hop on board

Yeah a lot of people were excited on Twitter about it so I figured he must be good at picking them

Saw on Twitter that we have the most recent Crystal Ball picks for Herb Jones, John Petty, Alex Reese and Collin Sexton.

If we have the most cab picks for petty and sexton a lot changed from yesterday. That cab pick from last night was our first for petty he had a lot for Kentucky and Sexton was all Flat I believe

We will get Petty been saying it the entire time. I think KY has found others they would rather have. If we don't get Reese or Jones we dropped the ball IMO. Don't know what's taking them so long to pull the trigger.

I'm greedy....I want all 4. Can you imagine the class coming in? It would be the equivalent of the 2008 football class. Plus, I'll throw Daniel Giddens in that class since he has to sit out a year anyway and will start playing time when they start..

Possible 2017 Class

PG - 5* Collin Sexton (Bama currently has 83% of his crystal balls)
SG - 4* Herb Jones (Bama currently has 100% of his crystal balls)
SF - 5* John Petty (Bama currently has 6% of his crystal balls, but I think we're gaining momentum with him)
PF - 4* Alex Reese(Bama currently has 87% of his crystal balls)
C - 4* Daniel Giddens (Bama Commit)

This years new players (4* Braxton Key, 4* A'rmond Davis, 4* Dazon Ingram & 5* Nick King) are going to put Bama on the map, but that 2017 joined in with these guys can put us in the Sweet 16 or better!! I'm pumped baby!!

Hope you get your wish on this class. Yeah, I'm a football fan first, but face it, recruiting with CNS has gotten BORING! It's not how good is the class gonna be, it's which 5 stars are we going to get to remain #1. I love the consistency, but I don't sweat football recruiting anymore. It's either get on board or get your arse run over.

Basketball, however, is a different story. CAJ is scrapping and fighting to get us back in the picture nationally and we've got a long way to go and one or two studs could make a huge difference in Tuscaloosa. If you want to be a big fish in a medium sized pond, Bama is a great place to go and you could be the guy that puts Bama basketball back on the map.

That part was what I saw on Twitter. Their "VIP" post simply stated that our coaches would be out recruiting

I saw Khalil Garland will choose his school Saturday. We're in the mix. Should we hope he picks us or hope he doesn't so it saves us a spot for someone else? I don't know anything about him. Also, someone on Twitter said it was unclear whether he meant he was picking his college or picking another high school to go to. I think he's picking a college tho

Saw an article today about Petty. He said he wouldn't call Bama and UK the finalists yet but they're definitely the main 2 right now. Said he has no specific date to decided but he thinks he'll decide and announce his school sometime at the end of August. If u want the link, I'll post it. It doesn't say anything else
