Wait a minute. What are you trying to say? That Battle hasn't been a good AD for Alabama?
Let's see:
He hired Avery Johnson who just waltzed into Baton Rouge with a very untalented basketball team and came away with a 15 point win.
He paved the way for the new Thomas-Sewell baseball stadium and got rid of that arse hat Mitch Gaspard.
The Alabama football team has reeled off 3 straight SEC Championships, plus a national title, under his watch.
And instability? How many multi-millionaires do you know that are working past the age of 75?
What more do you want?

If nothing else, thank God Battle is gone. I don't think his tenure was very good for the University. It wasn't terrible, but he had several PR snafus and treated the position too much like a for-profit business. You shouldn't sell naming rights to rooms in the athletic complex while denying club teams the use of the script A all in the name of $$. If we can't make it on what the football team brings in, maybe we need to examine the budget.
