Collin Sexton is a game-changer and Alabama basketball for too many years has been a program that needed its game changed. Take nothing away from John Petty, Herb Jones and other Tide players with probable NBA futures, Sexton’s superlative skill-set was (is) planned to be the Tide’s engine this season.
For six weeks, since the FBI probe into college basketball went public, Alabama basketball fans have agonized over whether the Sexton family was involved. Alabama basketball administrator, Kobie Baker lost his job because of the probe.
Though the initial FBI release did not mention player names, reading through the lengthy public documents it was clear Baker set up a meeting for an incoming Tide player’s father.
