Greg Byrne announced via twitter that the University of Alabama and Nate Oats agreed on a contract extension through the 2027 season. This is obviously big news for Bama seeing as Nate Oats, in his second season at the Capstone, has guided the Crimson Tide to a 17-5 record, including a 12-1 record in SEC play. Oats currently has the Tide ranked 8th in the country and has proved to be a rock for the team while multiple players have gone down with injuries.

“We are thrilled to be able to announce a contract extension with our head men’s basketball coach Nate Oats ” said Byrne.
