One of our backup plan recruits will be off the board this week. Can’t post who but it isn’t a big loss as long as we get our main priorities.

Edit: And there it is. Colby Jones just committed to Xavier

I’m beginning to think we should have recruited 4-5 guys really hard instead of 77 guys lightly.

It was Colby. Just committed to Xavier.

Also I’m beginning to wonder if MB is pushing their kids away from Bama. Watford to LSU and now Colby to Xavier. It’s ridiculous

Meh. Watford left for the money, and Colby left because Xavier is a very good basketball school and he received very passive interest from us and probably didn’t have a legit offer from us to actually commit to . Hard to blame MB or Bucky for either of those situations.

I still believe Bama didn't miss much on this. I think he will be good, just not quite the transcendent player people think in bham area.

I believe I’m more excited about this upcoming season that I’ve ever been about Bama basketball. A trio of 5-Stars in the backcourt (Kira Lewis, Jahvon Quinerly, John Petty) could be very special. Alabama normally doesn’t have talent like that all at once. Could be a special group.

I agree Gene. I think he is a solid 10ppg type of guy. But isn’t a program changer like some of our FOG fans want to believe

I really dislike the Roundtable when it comes to basketball. Jim Dunaway was just saying how you gotta keep a guy like Colby Jones in state

I've gotten to the point that I dislike all sports radio. It's either a shitfest like finebaum, or a couple of bubbas mumbling unresearched opinions. It's still all I listen to when I'm driving. I either have on a sports talk show, or the radio is off. I need to start listening to music.

Anyway, bring on basketball season.

Also Daishen Nix just set his official visit to Alabama! Him and Nimari Burnett will be on campus together, I believe those are the top 2 targets in this class and would be huge pickups!! Daishen a legit 1 and done.

That's the kind of take you get from someone who thinks all college sports recruiting is like football. Yeah, if you regularly have 25 open roster spots you'd do all you can to sign a player like that from your own backyard. When you have 2 open roster spots that changes things.
