Rivals has the 2011 incoming basketball recruiting class as the fifth best in the country. CAG is getting the job done. Basketball is going to be fun next year.

Although he is overshadowed by stars and press coverage, Moussa Gueye may be called upon early to fill a need for the 2011-12 Crimson Tide. I hope he shows up in shape and quickly adjusts to our system, both on and off the court.

CAG is well ahead of the timetable I assigned to him when he was hired. I am not surprised with these outstanding improvements, just that they surfaced so soon. RTR

  Future is so bright we have to wear shades.

The real test will be to keep recruiting high-quality players. We filled a lot of needs with this class and seem set at the guard position, the most important position on the floor. I would love to have one more big man for the inside, though.

LOL!!! Not him, a BB player.

I think the real test is to get the high profile players but keep them for 3 yrs, the one and done player won't do much for Bama.

I think he will be able to keep most of his recruits for at least 3 years. I've read where Coach Donovan of Florida has stopped trying to recruit certain players because he doesnt want the one and done problems. I think you can do more with a team of 4 stars for 3 or 4 years, instead of the super stud elite 5 star guy who just wants to play in the NBA after one year. I think more teams will use the same approach as Donovan.

That's what is so tough about following Div. 1 basketball these days. The players are changing every year with the Kentuckys,  North Carolinas, etc.

Agree. Players should be required to stay at least two years. Even Barkley says that. I think all the big programs are going to start reevaluating thir recruiting targets because everyone is tired of these one year wonders.

I would think even the NBA would want to get on board with that. Too many of the younger kids that go in after year 1 turn out to be busts and the NBA teams have to feel that is no bargain.
