So if Marshall stays at WSU, Smart goes to Texas, and Barnes is already at UT...where does Bama go? They have really put all their eggs in the one basket of Marshall here, and whoever they do hire if Marshall doesn't work out knows he'll be far and away the plan B option...how does that feel?

Serious question - not a flame - do you think Chizik or Malzahn were the first choice in the years they were hired? We know Bruce Pearl was likely AU's first choice, but Chiz & Gus were not. They didn't care b/c they were given a great opportunity to coach at a top 10-15 program in the country.

Bama Basketball can't offer the same top 10-15 opportunity, but they can give someone a top 10-15 pay day. I doubt the next guy will give a care as long as he thinks it is a good opportunity and he gets paid.

I don't think anyone has hired Archie Miller yet.
