What can you tell me about the assistant that just took the astate job?


The players love him. He's a great recruiter. I've never seen or heard of him being involved in the x's and o's. He's honestly never struck me as being the head coach type, but I'm wrong all the time.

Let him get experience and replace Oats if he leaves one day

Now that 2 coaches have been hired away, curious what Pettway's situation is looking like. I wonder if he's been approached for smaller HC jobs as well.

Hodgson was great. He lifted our recruiting to another level. Great evaluator as well as a salesman.
Opened up Canada and New York areas for us. He proved along with Oats we could go into any area in the US and recruit well. Hence our quick success. He will be greatly missed. Losing two excellent coaches. Hope Oats has a great list of replacements handy.

Amazing Oats would let him be around the team after he so savagely threw Oats under the bus at his press conference!

Would be nice if Saban could attend the games. Just fly over in the University plane with Athletic Dept people. Spring practice will not allow it, I suppose.

Much ado about nothing. People and media connecting the wrong dots per usual.

This is what it's gotten to. The media wants to put out as many false flags as possible to make things appear badly in the program. Looks like things are going just fine with Saban and Oats.

Hopefully he let them touch his rings. Rub some of that championship pedigree off on them.

I'm not so sure. I think we should spend 5 pages discussing it while forgetting we play in the sweet 16 in 2 days. But that's just me.


Kidding aside, I figured Saban was pissed and didn't really consider the implication of saying that old cliche. It's not like it's the first time Saban accidentally said something while mad that the press jumped on. He's almost always collected in what he says to the press. But even you're pissed off, sometimes you say the wrong thing. Anyone who claims they haven't done that is full of shite.

Steve Masiello would be on my list but he may join Pitino at St.Johns. I wish we make a move for Pat Beilein, dudes a hs coach now. Yannick Hufnagel is another one that may be good. Just spitting names out.

Losing the assistant that is apparently responsible for the defensive game plan and the other guy who recruited the majority our incredible depth of talent this year in the same season sucks.

For real. I wish we could've kept one of them for one more year instead of having to replace both in the same cycle.

What is it that convinces other programs that Tuscaloosa is the go-to destination for their hires?


Was thinking the exact same thing.

Besides, according to the media, Nate Oats and Alabama basketball is toxic.

3…2…1…before we get an article demanding these coaches sit out a year for their participation in the conspiracy/coverup.

Makes me so mad. They are all two-faced, hypocritical, judgmental idiots.

Thanks for letting me get that out

Can’t wait for Friday

Good luck to coach Hodgson.
