It’s been a busy last few days to say the least for Alabama men’s basketball.

Nate Oats was announced as the Crimson Tide’s next head coach last Wednesday, new offers have been extended, and visits are being made as the program looks to finish its 2019 recruiting class with a bang.

The Tide inked a three-man class last November during the Early Signing Period of Juwan Gary, Jaylen Forbes, Jaden Shackelford.

The latter gave his reaction to the latest developments and where he stands with his decision to roll with the Tide.

“The situation was all a blur when it happened and I didn’t know how to feel at first,” Shackelford told BamaOnLine over text message. “I’m a loyal guy and I didn’t want to just go and decommit because I truly want to help change the culture of Alabama basketball. So, I just kept my faith in God and let him handle this situation as he’s done plenty of times. Coach Oats reached out to me as soon as he could and came out to Cali to meet with me and my family. He’s a great guy and we had a great conversation about my future at Alabama. We have a great class coming in this year and we have A LOT of potential to be great. I believe in Coach Oats and what he can do to help not only me, but our team succeed and get better every day. I am still 100 percent committed to Bama! ROLL TIDE!”

At 6-foot-3, 185 pounds, Shackelford is rated the No. 16 shooting guard and the No. 98 overall player in the country, per the industry-generated 247Sports Composite Rankings.

He committed and signed with the Tide over programs like Gonzaga, Kansas State and Tulane, among others.

Here’s 247Sports’ eval of the UA signee:

A quick athlete with average size, at best. Quick with the basketball, but not a leaper at the rim. Scoring-oriented guard with a dangerous pull-up jumper who can make a slick pass. A good lefty shooter with some range. Needs to get stronger and more physical on the defensive end.
