📝 🏀 Grant Nelson is a guy I'm watching ... (UPDATE: 6' 11" forward commits to Bama.)

...we're going to see other basketball news hitting soon.

With Nelson, there's a 4/5 combination on offense.

This is exactly what I wanna hear. I Just need him to cancel the arkansas trip.

 

[alabama mike]

We just need him to sign if he can provide defense, rebound and score a little.

They're saying he arrived late last night.

With the lineup Alabama currently have, we won't have issues with all of those. Nelson won't solve CB issues, so we'll need another player to balance it out. Nelson is more of offensive guy who can spread out and stress defense.

4/5 combo.

I read somewhere on Twitter where his visit was everything both he and Bama wanted. Even though he's still taking visits, Bama probably wins this battle. Man, I hope so!

 

[Justneedme81]

sounds like the visit went well. Nelson's dad said it was 10/10 and they were pleased with their experience in T-town.

If he wants playing time and a better system suited for his style, he'll be at Alabama. If he only care about NIL, then he'll unfortunately sign with Musselman.

Look at their depth chart.

Look at their depth chart.

Looks a little crowded at that 4/5 spot.

 

[Justneedme81]

Timing is interesting.

He played for Muss at Nevada...

People are doubting the roster...and with the Kaluma visit?

It's my opinion, these are positions players are looking to fill versus coaches desperate to fill a position. I said it months ago, the recruiting dynamic has changed.

I think Oats has done pretty good job of being patient with the roster.

Alabama just recently followed grant nelson.

Not sure what's more exciting - this or Vaughn being hired. What a day

 

[BAMAneck]

awesome . He needs to start eating banana/mayonnaise sandwiches like yesterday.

Maybe we can hit the Big 3 Trifecta and find out that Jared Verse is transferring from FSU to Bama before the top of the hour. Or hell, I'd settle for a punter.
