Despite all 5 starters likely not returning (graduation and NBA) the team will be loaded.

247 Composite
2024 Class:
5 star #7 overall Jalil Bethea SG
5 star #10 overall Derrion Reid PF
5 star #23 overall Aiden Sherrell C

2023 Class:
5 star #18 overall Aden Holloway PG

Several other top 50 4 stars returning or incoming freshmen as well as high value transfers. All fits for Oats’ system. I would expect early hiccups but a team that gets really good by end of season.

Losing all five starters? Ouch. I’d be surprised if they went far in the tournament but I think bringing in three five stars and having a good coach at least gets you there.

All Alabama had do this season was not turn it over 20x a game and play a little defense. Oats is proven. He will get them fixed.

Greatest roster in alabama history watched Auburn win the SEC Championship and make the Final Four.

If you’re relying on 3 freshman you’re going to take a big step back in the portal era. Unless they are all Cooper Flagg level talents.

Is this the new year of "we are the best roster ever put together in the last couple decades"

All that talent and yet won’t have a final four to show for anything! Congrats Bama!

Pretty good I’d say. We get to hang another Final Four banner next to another SEC Championship banner.

Meanwhile, alabama’s greatest roster in history gets to hang nothing.

Given Auburn's track record in the NCAA tourney, it'll be another few years before they make it out of the first weekend of the tourney.

Your best team ever went 1-1 against Alabama and lost at home on senior night.
