I really want him at Bama. He reminds me of Jared Harper with the way he just runs up to the 3 point line and immediately shoots and drains his shots. He doesn’t even have to get set half the time.

The hire of Nate Oats was an excellent one in my opinion. I expect Alabama to be a tournament team year one with some of the players he has already added.

Per sources from both schools, @AlabamaMBB and @LipscombMBB in the works for next year in Huntsville. Great possible game with homecoming @coachacuff vs. @nate_oats. Would be great non conference game.

Alabama's James Bolden (ankle) will be able to start shooting in two weeks, per Nate Oats. Only played 18 games last season at West Virginia. Oats: "Slightly ahead of schedule".

Again, this is what some of us were saying 1-2 months ago. Anyone who thought this was going to be a "GOAT" class simply because we were in a few guys Top 12 was living in fantasy world. I have no doubt Oats will sign good players, but convincing yourself we are going to sign a Top 3 class for no reason at all and then letting that turn to frustration when we sign a Top 15-20 class or whatever (with a guy who has proven to be able to coach) is just flat out silly.

And, not to say I told you so, this is exactly what and why me and Bryant were saying what we were saying a month ago. Don't let yourself get all caught up and dreamy eyed because we are literally in some guys Top 12. That's just silly and you are setting yourself up to be disappointed for no reason at all.

People were real pissed when I said we were talking about OFFERS like commits a while back...
Oats has been at or above any expectation we possibly could've set at his hiring so far, not getting three 5 stars doesn't change a thing about what he brings to the table for us.

Well, I'm officially more excited for basketball season than football season.

Really solid schedule - generally solid to very good mid-majors (Penn/RI/Furman/SFA/Samford/Belmont/Richmond) and a solid slate of P5 games plus a great exempt tournament.

I don't see us winning any of those games by fewer than 8 points.
