Being in the conversation is where it starts! Iāve always been a BAMA fan of all sports starting at an early age. My Dad and his five older brothers raised us all to love athletics and especially BAMA Athletics. I really started watching around the time Coach Sanderson took over and my interest grew. Always strong teams, but couldnāt get over that Sweet 16 hump. Oats has pushed his program to try and match what Coach Saban built on the football side, what Murphy had done with softball and what Patterson had done to gymnastics. Heās confident, with a splash of arrogance or cockiness if you will. Iām glad we are in this conversation! Means people are paying attention in Tuscaloosa!!
