| MBB/WBB 🏀 2024-25 Pre-season - Tide rolls over Memphis, 96-88, in 2024 Rocket City Classic

We had a similar thread last year, and like it, I will update this one with the movement as it happens and next season's roster takes shape. Obviously, all the players in red that are set to return, won't. And others will be added via the portal. But I'll keep this updated and keep track of it as it all unfolds. As always, let me know of any errors/mistakes.

Also, keep in mind, there are 13 scholarship spots available per season. As of now, Alabama is +2 (15 scholarshipped players), which means at a minimum, 2 of the following will not return.


Current 2024/25 roster outlook as of now:
G Mark Sears (5th year Senior)
G Latrell Wrightsell Jr. (5th year Senior)
G Davin Cosby Jr. (Sophomore)
G Houston Mallette (Senior)
F Nick Pringle (5th year Senior)
F Grant Nelson (5th year Senior)
F Mohamed Wague (Senior)
F Sam Walters (Sophomore)
F Mouhamed Dioubate (Sophomore)
F Jarin Stevenson (Sophomore)
G/F Naas Cunningham (Freshman)
F Derrion Reid (Freshman)
C Aiden Sherrell (Freshman)
G Rylan Griffin (Junior)
G/F Kris Parker (Redshirt Freshman)
PG Aden Holloway (Sophomore)

Dang! New coaches and other schools still trying to poach them!! Roll Tide!!

I posted a WSJ article about Coach DeBoer a couple weeks before the CFPs this past December. Article was about how he didn’t take the salary he could have demanded to an end that he could pay his assistants more. It was a good read.

I need to get over and watch this game.... Excited to see them come to Huntsville.

Off topic but my issue is with Propst Areana and how they've handled tickets in recent years. When the sale opens on Friday, many good seats aren't available because they had presale day before and nobody knew about it.

What a seismic movement if we landed a #1 player in tge country in basketball.

Jasper Johnson is committing soon, but no one knows where. One thing is for certain - don't trust UK insiders. They're more delusional than auburn's.

Oh, I figure Preston Murphy knows...

SHOW HIM THE MONEY!!!!

 

[Bammerboy321]

Oh, I figure Preston Murphy knows...

You know, he has given subtle hints. But his UNO tweet seemed to be more cryptic this time around. All I know is if we land Johnson, I'll be spending a good time reading the UNC and UK boards.

This news was already leaked, but Bama gets auburn at home on a Saturday for the first time in what feels like forever. Also, starts off soft, but a hard landing going into the SEC Tournament.

Challenging Feb.

I got a note last night about someone being in "in the fold." I don't know if he was referring to JJ or Dybantsa.

This news was already leaked, but Bama gets auburn at home on a Saturday for the first time in what feels like forever. Also, starts off soft, but a hard landing going into the SEC Tournament.

Manageable start. From Vanderbilt to Georgia, we should go 4-0. The second half of that schedule is brutal.

Top 100 Players in CBB

Mark Sears comes in at #2. Nelson is at #29, Cliff Omoruyi is at #47, and Chris Youngblood at #97.

My guess is Jarin Stevenson will make a jump into the top 100, as will Labaron Philon and Derrion Reid.

 

[TerryP]

I wonder if they'll be doing the Retreat again this year. Love watching those.

 

[mando]

Got my ticket to see them play the game with Memphis up here in North Alabama. Looking forward to seeing them in person,

While there's some things in life I miss about my more youthful years, I'm plenty thankful that I'm well past the stage where anyone will ever wake my ass up with an air horn before sunrise ever again...

Love that video, thanks for posting.

The frogs piss me off in the mornings. I saw one flattened by a truck this morning. It was bigger than two of John Hannah's hands. Yes. That big. Maybe I need to develop a taste for frog legs.
