2026 Basketball Recruiting

I know these guys don't grow on trees but a Victor Wembanyama prototype is the ideal type Center in Oats style. Someone who is elite at rebounding and rim protection but also has the skill set to shoot 3's and win off the dribble. Not sure how many of those types exist in the world but you would think we could find one and that person would also see how Alabama would be the perfect fit for them.

Victor is a once in a lifetime talent. He is a unicorn. There has never been anyone like him and never will be anyone like him again.

Victor is a once in a lifetime talent. He is a unicorn. There has never been anyone like him and never will be anyone like him again.

Wouldn't go that far but he is definitely a once in a generation like talent. My point was more the skillset than it was the player. For instance, Yaxel Lendeborg would be unreal in Bama's system. He is good but not a one in a million type guy. The players we need are out there we just have to have the resources and wherewithal to go out and get them.
