Good point. Cade Cunningham, maybe? The next most recent probably was Sexton or Trae Young.

Top-25 senior Aiden Sherrell has committed to Alabama, he told ESPN. Fourth top-25 pledge in the last four classes for Nate Oats and the Crimson Tide.

Sherrell told @PaulBiancardi he’s trying to bring top-10 recruit Derrion Reid to Tuscaloosa, too.

“We are on the same team in practice and we dominate. I tell him in practice, let’s go to college together and do the same thing.”

I think we can put to bed the thought that we aren’t willing to pay players what it takes to get them here. Yeah we’ll lose some bidding wars but we are obviously well off in this regard.

ESPN 100 Aiden Sherrell’s analysis: @AidenSherrel

1.Sherrell is one of the most mobile and skilled players among all big men in the high school game.

2. His versatility is his calling card. A legitimate three point threat and a direct straight line driver with long strides and control is impressive.

3. He goes to the low block and makes a variety of post moves which include; a jump hook, drop step or a reverse pivot. You can throw it in to him with confidence.

4. On the defensive side his agility and lateral movement allow him to hedge ball-screens away from the basket and or play in drop coverage. This gives Nate Oates and Alabama flexibility on the defensive end. A shot changer at the rim too.

5.Sherrell possesses all the physical tools and skills to project well in Alabama’s system. With growth, he projects into the NBA draft because his game and frame is desirable among NBA personnel.

Alabama basketball lands 5-star center Aiden Sherrell. Huge get for Nate Oats and staff in 2024


Keep the man happy…lock this dude up with a bigger buyout, build the Arena (preferably closer to 12-14k), and let’s Roll!!

I know Nate hasn’t won 2 NCs or even been to a Final Four, but FL fell back to mediocrity way too fast after Billy D left. We need to make this run a lasting impact that changes the direction of our program…build it!!

Wrightsell isn't a senior is he? Pringle still has another year if I'm not mistaken.

Both are listed as Seniors on the official roster so I just went by that.

I think Wrightsell could technically come back and play another year if he were to get hurt and qualify for a medical redshirt, but he has already played 3 years of college ball and was a high school senior for the COVID year so I don't think he gets a free extra season. No idea how Pringle's year in JuCo affects his eligibility, but assuming it counts as one year against it he'd be the same situation. This will be year 4 of college ball for him, and he was a senior during COVID. Not many guys left with COVID year eligibility. This season is probably the last year anyone can exercise it aside from some weird circumstances with hardship/injury waivers.

If the main competition is UGA we should. He's from Athens originally and I think his brother goes to school there, but it's still Mike White and UGA basketball.

Not sure about Wrightsell. He and Sears both have a covid year. This is Estrada’s 5th year, so he is definitely gone.

Men's Basketball Season Tickets now on sale


I took the fact that you replied to my post with a season ticket link as a sign from God that it was time (and my wife gave me permission). This will be the first time I’ll have season tickets since I was in Mark’s Maddness and Pett’s red sneakers roamed our court. Roll Tide!!

P.S. Obviously joking about the sign from God, although those are actually really cool when they do happen if you believe in them.
