Yea, I mean, he seems to have the tools to recruit well (and recruited well at Buffalo relative to their size/structure). I have NO concerns about his recruiting moving forward.

However, it was inevitable that getting all excited about some guys seeing our staff's energy and track record and throwing us in a huge "first cut" list was going to turn into disappointment and doubt from some the minute those guys cut us for the typical 2-3 final teams (UCLA, UNC, Duke, Kentucky, etc).

Oats is gonna get guys here and more importantly he is gonna scheme and develop those guys in a way that we haven't done in a long, long time.

Notes from Evan Daniels of 24/7:

--As you might know the Alabama hoops team has spent the last two days with Navy seals. This is something that Nate Oats has done with his previous teams at Buffalo.

--According to sources close to the program, Herb Jones & Kira Lewis are both having very good off-seasons. There's a growing sentiment that Herb Jones will strongly benefit from how Nate Oats plays and their style. They are very excited about him.

--Another kid they’ve been impressed with is freshman Jaden Shackleford. They've raved about his competitiveness, how hard he plays.

--From a recruiting standpoint they are in terrific shape with Nimari Burnett, who is visiting September 27
