Alabama Basketball coach Nate Oats is a confident guy. Going back to his days at Buffalo, Oats had a zeal for challenging tough opponents. He has grown even bolder as the Alabama Crimson Tide head man.
Wherever the Crimson Tide is ranked and seeded come Big Dance time next season, Oats will have a battle-tested team. Quite a few national, college basketball experts are predicting the Crimson Tide will be a top ten team, a likely 2-seed again and a possible 1-seed come tourney time.
Based on the abundance of added talent in Tuscaloosa, Oats should have a better team in the ’21-22 season.
