No we didn't. We were picked to finish 13th in the SEC Avery's first year, and he had us on the bubble in mid February. Retin blossomed under Avery, but he didn't even start in Grant's final year.

I think Avery is doing just fine, but we were in way worse shape when Bruce got here. Bruce had to sign juco and grad transfer players to even fill out the roster. Barbee left us literally nothing, except for KT Harrell.

You really did tho. No talent is still better than what Bruce inherited. Bruce had to come in and immediately rebuild the roster with grad transfers and JUCO guys or we wouldn't have been able to field a team without heavily relying on walk ons. Barbee left Bruce with KT Harrell for 1 year and a bunch of players that weren't worthy of D1 scholarships.
How many players does Bama still have left from Grant? Year 2 with Pearl Auburn literally had 2 guys left from Barbee and neither started and both were trash.
