Alabama will look to bounce back after a disappointing 2021-22 men’s basketball season.
Yes, the Tide took down teams like Baylor, Gonzaga and Houston during the season, but losing in the first round of the NCAA Tournament was a bit of a letdown.
Nate Oats is going to look to add a couple of impact transfers this offseason, and the Tide will get a visit from West Virginia transfer forward Jalen Bridges in mid-April, per college basketball insider Jon Rothstein:
West Virginia transfer Jalen Bridges tells me that he will visit Alabama (4/15-17), Baylor (4/18-19), and also plans to visit Michigan State at some point.

Bridges appeared in 33 games for the Mountaineers in 2021-22, starting all of them. He averaged 8.4 points, 4.8 rebounds and 1 steal per contest.
As Rothstein’s tweet notes, Bridges will visit Baylor immediately following his Alabama trip. We’ll see where he ends up committing.
