Two of the country's top prospects are going to announce their decisions tonight and both have Alabama among their finalists.

John Petty, the state's reigning Mr. Basketball, will choose between Alabama and Kentucky at halftime of his basketball game at Mae Jemison. It starts at 7 p.m. AL.com's Daniel Boyette will be on scene.

Collin Sexton, a five-star point guard from Mabelton, Ga., will make his decision between 5 and 6 p.m. CT on ESPNU. According to an ESPN release, Sexton's finalists are Alabama, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Kansas, NC State and Oklahoma State, but this is believed to be an Alabama-Kansas battle.

The Bama Scout forum is saying they are signing either yesterday or today and make their announcement publicly later today.

Alabama just landed a commitment from five-star point guard Collin Sexton.

The night could get even better for Alabama around 8 p.m.

Prized guard John Petty from nearby Huntsville will announce at halftime of his team's game whether he is going to Alabama or Kansas.

Great job by CAJ and staff on getting the four we have so far. At this point I have a feeling Petty will join Bama.

November 10, 2016 could be the date that Bama became a championship contender.

Now I'm confused. Are we a football school or a basketball school?  ???

I bet the barn was feeling pretty good about their "most prolific recruiting class in history" until tonight.

Congrats to Coach AJ and staff. A few months ago when it was made known that CAJ was recruiting all of these big name players most everybody laughed and stated that they only wished that Bama could land a big name player. Well, CAJ has proven that he can recruit with the elite schools and Bama is now on it's way to some bigger and better days with it's program. All I can say is "Buckle Up" because he's got him some players and now it's on to start winning some games.

And to think....when CAJ was hired some of us -- including me -- wondered if he could recruit.

CBB hit a grand slam with this hire!

Petty had a big night. He publicly committed at halftime of his teams first game of the year. Petty ended the night with 35 points on 14-21 shooting. His team won by 40.
