Two Sweet 16s in four years is not bad. Y’all make it like Bama’s been bounced before the second weekend. They’ll get there.
Gottfried’s teams always underwhelmed. Even the Elite Eight squad barely made the tournament. I think they limped into the tourney as an eight seed and had to make a buzzer beater shot to get past Southern Illinois in the first round game.

Gottfried made it past the first weekend one time in his 11 seasons and missed the dance entirely in five of them. He had a grand total of five tourney wins.

Despite the improbable Elite 8, Oats has already surpassed him in advancing in the tourney and an opening round win will tie them in that category. He’s also made the tourney every year except for the one when it was cancelled.

Gottfried isn’t the comparison in Bama hoops. That’s Wimp Sanderson with 10 Dances and 6 sweet 16s in 12 seasons.
