Alabama men’s basketball coach Nate Oats said he’s “fully committed” to the team and school Monday amid reports that Oats would be a candidate for Kentucky’s opening after Sunday’s news of John Calipari nearing a deal for the coaching job at Arkansas.
“We have already accomplished some great things here, and there is nothing I want more than for The University of Alabama to win its first national championship in men’s basketball,” Oats wrote in a statement posted on X. “Despite any rumors to the contrary, rest assured that I will continue that pursuit as your head coach.”
