Collin Sexton names top 10. Alabama makes it quote: Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia Tech, Iowa State, Kansas, North Carolina, North Carolina State, Oklahoma State and Villanova.


Weren't we just worried about Duke & UNC gaining interest, & having to compete with the big dogs? Well Duke didn't make Top 10, this has to be good news? UNC there though

Alabama has 100% of the crystal ball picks for Sexton now. We also got another pick for Hammonds.

Neither Duke or Kentucky has even offered. I think the only schools that's probably in it is Bama, Georgia Tech, and Oklahoma State. Those are the only schools he's visited.

Wow, today is what I'd call a big day for Bama. We got 2 more Crystal Balls for Collin Sexton, 1 for Rayshaun Hammonds like you said, and then 1 for Alex Reese!

Avery Muthaphukkin Johnson!!

So we lead for Sexton, Reese, Jones, Hammonds, we have the last 2 picks for Petty, and we are in Kevin Knox's top 10. This is a great group of players. Hopefully we'll get a few of them

And Avery went and saw that other 5-star SF play 3 times this weekend. He's gotta feel we have a shot there, or else he wouldn't waste his time.

Hmm...what position is Hammonds? He is a tweener right 3/4. So I think we would take two of the three of Reese, Jones, and Hammonds. I want the instate guys.

Oh yeah. Troy Brown is his name I think. I posted a VIP article yesterday in this thread where he talks about Alabama if anyone can tell us what it says

I doubt it happens, but a class of 5* Sexton, 5* Brown, 4* Hammonds, 4* Reese, and 4* Jones would be the best we've ever had. That's one in the top 10, two in the top 25, and you could argue, depending upon the site, that all 5 are in the top 50.

Fwiw, one of Brown's AAU/EYBL teammates on the Las Vegas Prospects says he doesn't think Alabama has a real shot at Brown. Says he thinks if he had to sign today, it would be Cal. Doesn't think he will leave the west regardless.

My son plays with the AAU/EYBL teammate on his high school team here in Phoenix.

I doubt he leaves the west coast, but without Sexton and Petty playing this past weekend, I don't mind Johnson going and watching a guy like Brown all weekend just in case we can get him on campus and cause him to have a change of heart.

From looking at his stats, he's a good rebounder and can score. He had 16 rebounds against Wichita State last year and averaged 8.8 per game. Had a 17 point game and averaged 7.8 per game.

Don't we have room for one more guy? If so, then I sure hope we get him
