I figured I would start a 2025 recruiting thread. We are getting an OV from 4* Davion Hannah. It says he is one of the best shooters in the class and is the #31 ranked player overall.

As BamaHoops posted on another thread we are in on #1 overall player AJ Dybantsa and made his top 10. He was teammates with Reid and Sherrill last year and knows ass't coach Preston Murphy well so we may be well positioned here.

I can't quite process that the highest rated high school player out there plays for a prep team in Hurricane, UT. I've been to Hurricane. It's a cool area, but I wouldn't have thought it was a basketball hotbed.

It may be one of those private school basketball factory schools but don't know for sure.

Nate Oats close to reeling in a 5-star guard in the 2025 class

Alabama Basketball recruiting has been hot this offseason. Whether he’s picking top talent from the high school ranks or scouring the transfer portal for the ri

His father, Dennis, is a former all-SEC defensive end at Kentucky and former NFL player. Jasper is originally from Lexington, Kentucky, but moved to Link Academy to play high school basketball ahead of the 2023 season.

This would certainly be a big deal, ... and I would think our chances are better since Coach Cal has moved on.

According to On3.com, we might have a slight lead on Mikel Brown, Jr.

Mikel Brown Jr. - Recruiting Profile

Latest recruiting data from Mikel Brown Jr.
www.on3.com www.on3.com
Also, according to an article on rolltidewire.usatoday.com, Brown, Jr. received an offer from the Alabama coaching staff well over a year ago. (April 2023)

Like Jasper Johnson, Mikel is also being pursued by Kentucky. Here is a blurb from an article on the UK channel of On3.com:
It is really, really hard for opposing defenses to keep this dynamic point guard out of the paint. Brown Jr. was consistently getting into the teeth of the defense and making decisions from an advantageous position. His raw playmaking ability off of the dribble was as impressive as any point guard prospect in Rock Hill throughout the week. Brown Jr. averaged 24.9 points and 3.1 assists per game while leading Team Loaded NC to a 6-1 week at the 3SSB Championships. He is a talented shot-maker from beyond the arc showcasing the ability to create looks for himself off of the dribble or knock them down from the catch. Big time scorer from the point guard position who still impresses with his passing ability.

He reportedly made two visits to Tuscaloosa back in January 2024 - one official and one unofficial.

Highly ranked point guard.

That guy can SHOOT, happened to watch him while watching Reed in the U18 Fiba Championship and he was raining 3's pretty consistently.

2 CB's for Will Riley to Illinois so looks like we may miss on him.

That roster may have intimidated him a bit.

I don't know whether our roster intimidated Will Riley or he's leaning toward Illinois for other reasons. But the idea that our roster even might have intimidated a 5* basketball prospect is pretty cool.

I've been following Alabama basketball since CM Newton's early days, and we've never had talent in the same universe as we have now.
