***SG Algie Key Commits To Alabama***
- Thread starter bamahippie

There's not a lot, but I found some promising things with Google earlier. He's a 2-time Juco All-America, I think.
Glad to get a good player but my goodness we need to get off the guard kick and find some inside guys who can score and rebound.
Here are his stats from this past season.
17.6 points per game
44.3 FG %
14.7 3 point %
71.1 FT %
6.2 Rebound/game
4.5 Assist/game

Yeah, kinda weird for a guard, He only attempted 34 three's the entire season and made five. Not good.
The 44% shooting is good so he must be an ok mid-range shooter.
He had a much better freshman season than he did this year. Made All-Region as a frosh.
Maybe he had an injury or something.
Looks to be athletic.
Glad to have him but still think there should be a requirement that anyone else we sign be at least 6-8.
sip
Hopefully this post means we are going to speed up the offense. This guy is possible the worst shooter on the team now. He's also possibly one of the better scorers of this team. He's not going to make threes, but he will get buckets. I guess this means no Jaren Sina for us. This also means well will be replacing 4 guards and 2 bigs in 2015. That class will be HUGE.
I saw a tweet earlier in the day saying Key can get to the basket. If he can drive and break the zone, he can kick the ball out to the shooters.
he's a great penetrator who can get to the rim. thus creating opportunities at the foul line. something we lacked as a team big time. a streaky shooter but we are not signing him to be a shooter
You gotta like the back court combo of Releford/Lacey/Obasohan/Key... Athleticism isn't lacking... I think Coop and Randolph, although Guards, play the 3 well... If the bigs are as good as advertised, Engstrom comes back healthy, and Pollard continues to develop like he did towards the end of the year... I will be happy with the roster
i hope that 6'3" is legit b/c that would give him just enough length to allow us to play 3 guard lineups. Which should help us play faster. I hope he brings a mental toughness to our offense b/c that is what we need. Someone not afraid to try and dominate by taking the ball to the basket and creating opportunities for themselves and others. It always opens things up and helps the flow of offense.
Good vid. I like his penetration ability and he looks good on the short to mid jumpers. Looked quick and to be a good ball handler.
I'm excited about the 2013-2014 season because of what returns from this season. Key's commitment (do we know when he'll sign?) makes the 2014-2015 season look even brighter.
Looking at the roster and recruits, here's who I figure will be on that team:
Seniors:
Algie Key
Ricky Tarrant
Levi Randolph
Trevor Lacey
Rodney Cooper
Nick Jacobs
Juniors:
Retin Obasohan
Devonta Pollard
Sophomores:
Shannon Hale
Jimmie Taylor
Is Carl getting a medical redshirt for this season? If so, he'll be a senior in 2014-2015. I put Ricky Tarrant as a senior, but he may be a junior on that team.
BTW, I just saw 247Sports moved Bama up 5 spots in its rankings after Key's commitment.
