You may not think Avery Johnson is worth $3 million a year and you may be right. That's a different question though. But if Johnson is who Battle wanted and that is what it took for him to say yes, then it is not an over payment. If Johnson comes out and says I would have taken the job for $2 million, then you could say its patently obvious that Alabama overpaid.
No. Almost of that is correct. You're making a guy with 0 college coaching experience one of the top 10 or 15 paid college coaches. It's patently absurd.

So you just gonna leave out the fact re: his wins in the NBA, coaching his team to the finals, NBA coach of the year?
Yeah OK....perfect sense....

I don't get this critique. Isn't that like doubting Greg Louganis' ability to do a cannonball or if Lance Armstrong can ride a tricycle? We're not talking Lawrence Frank, who never even made his HS team. AJ went through the recruiting process as a player and as a parent. Certainly those experiences will aide him in recruiting. AJ won't be a stranger to the politics of campus life or dealing with prima donna antics. What really does it matter if his lowest level of coaching is significantly higher than SEC basketball?
