Gottfried was at Alabama for 11 years. In years 4 through 8 he made the NCAA, making the Elite 8 once, losing in the first round twice and the second round twice.
In his last 3 years the Tide made one NIT, and two years had no post season.
When Grant's team made the NCAA in his third season, that was the first time in 6 years the Tide had made the NCAA. His team was riddled with injuries in the nonconference part of the fourth season, or may have made the NCAA again. Fifth year was very weak.
Alabama has had success in the past, mostly under Sanderson. But since Saban, for the most part they have not. AJ may succeed if they turn the resources back on, but hasn't to date.
