Recruiting news on Jaxon Richardson:

BAMA was reportedly very close to signing his brother Jase Richardson last year, according to their father Jason Richardson:
... Jason said that he believed Jase was Alabama-bound and he even told the coaching staff in Tuscaloosa that if they let him visit East Lansing for Grind Week, they were going to lose him. And sure enough, that was enough to sway Jase's decision as he later became a Spartan ...

Gage Mayfield could be the first Hale County player to join Alabama basketball since 2017 alum Herb Jones. Why the 2026 recruit draws comparisons.

Missed seeing this article when it was published the first week in June.

Gage has made a come back from a serious injury to become a high-level player at a small school. He and Herb Jones have more in common than just same high school.

No way Mayfield isn't a better offensive player than Herb at the high school level, if he's being that highly sought after.

Herb Jones had one of the worst shots for a college recruit his first year or so at Bama that I'd ever seen. An absolute brick layer!!!

But, through very hard work, I've never seen such improvement! Hope Mayfield can work just as hard, and if he has the offensive skills already and adds HJ's defensive savvy, watch out!

Or he might just wanna go out of state for school. I know I wanted to go out of state at that age. I wanted to go to UA more, so that's what I did, but i remember wishing it were out of state lol. He might feel the same way.
