It was kind of a wild Wednesday on "The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral" as we recapped exactly how things went down on National Early Signing Date. 

The Alabama Crimson Tide walked away with the No. 2 overall recruiting class in the 2024 cycle. Will we look back on this day in three to five years with fondness, or wonder what could have been with these highly-rated prospects?

We breakdown positionally who joined the team out of the 23 signees and explained why the remaining two prospects did not sign with the Crimson Tide on Wednesday. 

There are some holes in this class despite its high rating, where will the Tide need to utilize the transfer portal to make up for a deficiency in numbers?

Despite the holes, this class does have some major positions of strength, however, is it foolish to celebrate a strong National Early Signing Date with how prevalent the transfer portal is in college football?

We moved on from the incoming freshman class to talk about the Alabama basketball program. The Tide has a chance to really put the last few weeks behind them by stealing a challenging road victory over a top-five team in the country. 

This year's team is just 1-4 against P5 opponents and while that's not a great record it would look a whole lot better with a Wildcats victory under their belt as well heading into Southeastern Conference play.

What will it take to to beat Arizona? Maybe not what you think.
