I wish it was a more marquee opponent but you can’t have a whole slate full of top 25 teams

We’ve got two more games left to confirm right?

I don't mind it aside from my own personal concerns about helping to legitimize Liberty as an institution. They are a decent mid-major though, which seems to be the norm with our scheduling of non-marquee games lately.

1-2 more I would think, but not totally sure.

Looks like someone from Michigan has their panties in a wad.

I'll say, I wouldn't mind seeing Izzo retire sooner rather than later. Especially if Oats is considered controversial. I'd like for the NBA to be the only threat for him to leave. But since he's such a damn good recruiter, he's perfect for the college game.

I love how complicated this is to some people

Also please remind me. Which school between Alabama and MSU had the biggest ethical scandal in collegiate athletics ever outside of the Sandusky coverup?

It's looking like August/September are about to be a couple crazy months for basketball recruiting. Could never imagine a few years ago getting so many top 10 players to come in for a visit.

Wouldn't guess any time would be ideal, but that's an interesting point in terms of perception.

That remains the only potential job opening that would concern me.

That's a letdown.
Not an easy sell, IMO.

I'm back for the season.

What did I miss over the beginning of the summer? Saw we had some good 'croots?

Alabama not covering up anything at all with the Miles shooting is basically worse than actively covering for a sexually assaulting team doctor.

Just Sparty Things.

Alabama faces Liberty in the 2023 C.M Newton Classic

Alabama will face off against Liberty in the fourth annual C.M. Newton Classic on Dec. 30

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The Alabama men's basketball program, along with Knight Eady, announced the matchup for the 2023 C.M. Newton Classic presented by TriGreen Equipment Tuesday morning. This year's event will feature the Crimson Tide and Liberty in Birmingham, Ala., for the fourth annual event which will be played on Dec. 30, 2023 inside Legacy Arena.

While this year's C.M. Newton Classic will not be a part of the Alabama men's basketball season ticket package, fans who have purchased season tickets for the 2023-24 campaign will receive priority seating to the event. Alabama men's basketball season ticket holders will have first access to tickets starting on August 28th.

C.M. Newton Classic tickets for the public will go on sale October 3rd.


"We are thrilled to once again have the opportunity to play in Birmingham," said Alabama head coach Nate Oats. "After playing in the 2022 C.M. Newton Classic and the First and Second Rounds of March Madness in Birmingham, we have seen first-hand the overwhelming support from our fans at Legacy Arena. We are looking forward to playing a strong Liberty team this year. To be able to have this great program come to Birmingham to play us is exciting for the team and our fans. In addition to great basketball, the C.M. Newton Classic honors Coach Newton's legacy with the program and college basketball throughout his career. We can't wait to play in front of an energized crowd in Legacy Arena."

Tip time for the Dec. 30 contest will be announced later this fall. The game is owned and operated by Knight Eady, a Birmingham-based sports marketing company.

Penny, Kennedy, and Woodson don't belong on there. Penny wears mostly polos and athletic gear, Kennedy dresses like an investment banker from the 90s, and Woodson just wears a bunch of generic dark suits, white shirts, and solid ties like he's going to a job interview or a funeral.

Chad, would it be possible to update one of the first posts with the dates our targets are visiting? We’ve had so much activity recently with making top 5s or visits set up that I can’t keep it straight.

Also feel free to tell me to GFY and look it up on my own.
