On Wednesday, Alabama basketball released their 2022-2023 conference schedule. They will have a tough slate of games prior to conference play, however. The Crimson Tide are set to face numerous elite, non-conference opponents in Houston, Gonzaga, South Alabama, Michigan State, Memphis and Oklahoma. Nonetheless, the team is expecting Jahvon Quinerly to return when conference play rolls around.
The expectations are high for Nate Oats as he enters his fourth season in Tuscaloosa. He has made two appearances in the NCAA Tournament thus far. With a lot of potential on this season’s roster, it will be interesting to see how the Crimson Tide performs.
The team has added two transfers in guards Mark Sears and Dominic Welch. Not to mention, Coach Oats and his staff also brought in a top-five recruiting class in this past year’s recruiting cycle. McDonald’s All-Americans Jaden Bradley and Brandon Miller are expected to have a large role in the Crimson Tide’s success this season. It will be interesting to see how the team gels with a tough conference schedule ahead of them.
