Why can't Bama have a home run hire in basketball? That's a load of crap. It's not an issue of can we, it's a question of are we willing to spend the money to do it. Everyone thought they were crazy to pay Saban what they paid him to come in 07. Now looking back, that move changed how coaches are paid in college football. We have the money to do something like that in basketball, but it's a matter of UA deciding whether or not it's worth it to go that far.

So what you're telling me is we should hire Prohm over Marshall?...
I wouldn't refer to Miami in the 80's as an example either. Schnellenberger jumpstarted one of the most successful football programs in history and left all the tools for JJ. We didn't do anything to aid an unproven coach like Schnelly did for Johnson.
Based off the decision to hire Grant for that sum of money i'd imagine there is a push to be good in that field. Hopefully we're willing to at least push for 3.5ish while we can. This is arguably one of the best times to improve the program by putting money into it.
