I guess that is easier than quitting and admitting defeat

Unless they're flying commercial or have bought a new jet, that's not Bama's group.

Pretty good. He has the best coaching job in basketball. He looks at the top 25 recruiting board every year and picks who he wants on his team. He usually has equal or greater talent than any other team. Why give that up to put up with the BS in the NBA?

Because he failed in the NBA. His ego could be about redemption. If you go 40-0 and win a national title what more do you have to prove at that level?

He could dominate college basketball like no one but Wooden has over the next five years. Why give them up for a very iffy future in the NBA where a roster is given to you and may not follow your lead or give the effort?

He will never equal wooden with the way he's doing now. He needs guys to stay every year to accomplish that. Turning over the roster every year he will not achieve that

Is it possible they left that jet there for Marshall tomorrow and flew another one back?

Battle definitely wasn't using N1UA, but he was filmed getting out of an SUV and boarding an airplane in Wichita - presumably on his way back to Tuscaloosa. Marshall didn't come with him, although I don't think anyone expected him to.

Yeah. The 6-year $4M+ idea that was floated I thought would be enticing.

$3M+ ain't gonna get it done.
