You say realistic, I say pessimistic. I'm not sure how AJ will be at Xs and Os but I feel pretty confident he will be able to recuit well at Alabama. He's a very charismatic person with a strong resume and good ties to hotbed areas. At the worst, I feel he will increase our talent level to the point where if and when he leaves we will be a more attractive job.

Based off what? Your gut feeling?

There is hard evidence Miller can recruit and develop players, there was hard evidence Marshall could do it. There is at least a little evidence the other coaches I named can.

There is ZERO evidence Avery Johnson can. Your confidence is based off of a guess...and you think I am the unrealistic one.

This will be another Mike Shula where a coach with a name will have to learn on the job in what now is a brutal conference.

Battle should have hired Howland FROM THE START but he is incompetent.
