With Butler not being cleared by our medical staff that 2018 recruiting class was an epic disaster waiting to happen until Kira reclassified. The only juniors on our current roster are JuCo transfers.
I had to look that up, and yeah...Kira, Diante Wood, and Javian Davis. Not great.

That link though is the first time I've gone down the rabbit hole of 247's "All Time Commits" for Alabama Basketball.
Boy, there are some interesting names
The top three (Sexton, Hendrix, and Jamychal) were all obviously good players for us. Devonta Pollard at 4 was such a massive miss though. My gosh.
In retrospect, Kira and Ronald Steele were underrated. There are probably some people in here that were too young to remember him (which makes me feel old as shite), but Ronald Steele before his knees went was a fricking awesome player.
Same for Releford considering he's below Albert Weber and Rico Pickett
Also I can't remember for sure, but I was probably marginally hyped about Akini Adkins.

Terrible timing for me also, as I've got a full plate of stuff to get done at work this week. It always seems to happen that way when something exciting is on the horizon.
I'm moving into a new place at the end of the month. And before knowing that I was moving, I volunteered for out of town work on the weekends, to pick up some good overtime. I'm praying they want to go with someone that's entry/mid level experience, with a lower pay rate, and don't request me. Otherwise I'm basically fricked every weekend throughout both tournaments. And during the week, I'll be packing, getting the place I'm moving into ready (I'm helping a family member out by moving in, while saving money to buy a place myself).
When I want to do nothing but relax, smoke a couple joints, drink a few beers, and watch the basketball, I'm gonna be busy as hell until April. But funny enough, during the week, while at work, I'm painfully slow. So I'll probably watch a lot of basketball during the day.

If we get Jerry Palms predicted bracket we will make the Elite 8....it sets up perfectly for us

I dunno man, USC and UConn are 2 of the teams I don't want anywhere near my side of the bracket.
UConn is probably the team on the possible 7/10 line that I'd like to avoid the most, honestly.

Yeah and I just looked...Bryant should have beaten Syracuse. Lost 85-84 after having an 8 point lead in 2nd half

Syracuse is garbage, though.

And hey, you know what would be cool? If we actual benefited from some upsets for once.
Maybe, I dunno, play a #11 or #14 seed in the Sweet 16? That'd be a nice change.

Oats Coach of the year and Herbert J POY and DPOY. Per USA Today.
No one else on the first and second teams. LSU has Three. LINK

So LSU had 3 of the top 10 players in the conference and finished 11-6? Will Wade truly is Mark Gottfried's spiritual brother.

Lunardi has us in a bracket with West Virginia as our 3 and USC as our 6. And BYU as our 7.....Nope That’s not good
Posted on 3/8/21 at 10:05 am to mistaken4193
We will get the worst possible bracket. No one wants Bama to succeed in basketball because they are tired of us dominating football

Without a doubt, this whole season has been a plot to match up Alabama with Kentucky or Mississippi St in the SEC tournament.
