Where does Oats go for a backup big.

[Vaughnbama]

There are options out there for a backup for Pringle, but not many starters.

What about the kid from Oat Mountain that went to UNC?

Well I believe the other Bediako is still in the portal...

He's not very good. I think he transferred to that commuter school in Birmingham.

We don't need a backup for Pringle. We need someone for Pringle to back up.

 

[Jordan Harper]

Pringle will not be starting. If he is, then this team is in trouble imo. Pringle is nothing more than a high energy bench guy

Will see how good a recruiter the new coach is-when will coach Oats and staff nab an Eastern European like Jokic? Ha-in our dreams.

I don't know about that. He is fast and can rebound. His defense is his worst part. If we can find a good sized 4 to help with rebounding and defense, I think he will be fine starting.

YOu know more about it than I do but I think he will be a real asset on the boards.

Geez Harper/ that is a little harsh. Sounds like that guarantee that Bediako would be back in Tuscaloosa has you a little on edge.

 

[aggietider]

We don’t need to look far for backups, just right there on the current roster.

 

[michael1965]

I like Pringles energy but he needs more bulk and learn to defend without fouling.

Ernest Udeh is a name to watch. In the portal from Kansas. We recruited him initially out of HS. I think he committed to Duke but didn’t have the grades to get in. High ceiling player.

Got 6'9" freshman wing in Sam Walters, and with his ball skills, he can handle the 3 spot as well.
I know he's a first year guy but hearing good things about him.

He’s flourished in his time off the bench, but cannot stay on the floor long due to his foul trouble. He would only be able to play 15-20 min a game unless he vastly improved in that area. All I’m saying is Alabama would be in trouble in terms of supplementing the depth at that spot with his foul trouble

Without another quality big I think we’re going to be a middle of the SEC pack team. About 60 years ago I filled in briefly for a junior high coach while he recovered from an illness. We were undefeated in his absence. Of course, they were also undefeated before and after my tenure. Anyway, that’s my single credential so take my opinion for what it’s worth.

Way to go out on top btr

I don’t disagree, but Chuck’s freshman year was similar. I know Pringle isn’t a freshman, but it was his first year in the system
