Getting rid of the One&One would be a mistake IMO. It adds drama

True. OTOH, awarding a held ball to the defense will restore some of it; but frankly, it makes it essentially a turnover. The player may as well just pitch the ball up in the air for the possibility of recovering the ball.

VF30 always does an awesome re-engineering of ken poms formulas in the preseason. He did next year's.

Primo shouldn’t be gone pro unless he just blows up this year. He will be overshadowed by Ellis, JQ, and Davison

He needs a third year imo

Way too early to say that at this point.

Nate Oats on Alabama being one scholarship over the limit for 2021-22 — he doesn’t have an answer yet but Alabama has “earned the right” to let it play out. “It’s not fun all the time.” Said he thought they handled it well last year with some players transferring out.

Nate Oats said Alabama “did not have an answer” for Noah Gurley when Furman played them the past two seasons. Oats said the staff was “fired up” when Gurley put his name in the transfer portal.

“Versatile big that can play multiple positions. High IQ, which we like."

Nate Oats said he believes it’s the first time in Alabama history that there’s three McDonald’s All-Americans on the roster.

Oats called Alabama’s backcourt potentially one of the best in the country.

Oats on Burnett: “Recruited him really hard out of high school. Developed a great relationship with him. … When we didn’t get it initially, I thought we handled it correctly. … They followed back up. They watched us play a lot. They let us know they enjoyed watching us play."

Nate Oats on Charles Bediako: “We’ve been recruiting him a while and have a really good relationship with him that we’ve built over a long time. … He’ll give us a little bit different big than maybe what we played with this year.” Cites rim protection and athleticism.

Nate Oats confirms that none of Alabama's outgoing seniors currently plans on using their extra COVID year. “The education part of it is done. They’re now at the point where they can go make some money."

Nate Oats says he expects some underclassmen Alabama players to enter the NBA draft. But if they don’t have a guaranteed first-round grade, he would probably recommend coming back.

IMO, shocking if Shack left, unlikely that Ellis leaves and less than 50% that Primo leaves. Nevertheless, as you say, there will be backcourt needs to be filled. Alabama will probably fare well in those pursuits
Honestly I'm fine if we have 5 guards go pro next year, because the only way that happens is if we beat everybody by 20 and coast to a Final Four.

Damn, Oats said in his press conference that Hodgson took Luke out to eat 2 nights before he passed.

Tragic

Not sure about y'all. But I think Oats might be due for a contract extension.

No point in another one just yet. The hires that were of any concern whatsoever are over and done with. We should just do the same thing we did last year during the season. In the middle of a fantastic season again? Extend and rework the contract again mid-season to beat the coaching search rush...

A lot of people talking about Oats's jacket. Haven't seen one like this before. Does anybody know where it is available?

I’ve found a few that were similar, but not the exact pullover yet. If anyone find that thing, I’ll have mine ordered within the minute. That’s always been one of my favorite logos.

ETA: I’ve been pretty happy with the apparel selection this year. The University has really stepped their game up recently.
