We seem to be getting a lot of Alabama kids.

How do people get to be so tall??

High school basketball players in Bama probably feel like they will get more exposure out of state and not be in the shadow of football.

And they're probably right to an extent Hard to compete with Alabama football for newsworthiness.

Watched some film on EJ Datcher and...

...for a big man, he shoots the ball outside real well. He looks better than Gavin Ware. I would have rated him as a 4 star player just on his film. Great looking power forward. He kind of went under the radar his Jr. year due to a knee injury and subsequent surgery. BAMA and several others backed off, UAB offered, Auburn offered, and BAMA came back strong, but MSU had already slipped in and got him. We were in the right place at the right time. Good job Howland.
