I hope that I am wrong about all of this.
Certainly expecting some red pips.

I agree with this
I kept hearing Alabama is a football school and you can't win there. His predecessor Mark Gottfried made the tourney five years in a row and made the Elite 8.
Avery Johnson has the #2 Point Guard in the country coming and another top 50 coming in this year. They lost a McDonalds AA this year Terrance Ferguson who played pro in Australia rather than go to Bama.
Bama is a football school and they have modest expectations in basketball and Anthony couldn't meet them.
This program has waited a long to get the momentum that Archie built up for it. My fear is we are stuck with Chris Mooney without the sweet 16 for the next 10 years.
I'd love to be wrong but if you look his coaching record objectively the guy is Dennis Felton with a degree from Dayton.
