Alabama Basketball: Avery Johnson Cleans House

The newcomers outnumber the returning players. And Johnson may not be done just yet.

Alabama's Avery Johnson has yet to coach a single college basketball game and already has washed away many memories of his predecessor, Good Ol' Whatshisname.

The Crimson Tide has seen an overhaul of an unprecedented level with only six players returning from last year's team.

The newcomers to the Crimson Tide basketball team now officially outnumber the returning scholarship players from last season's team. Johnson put a cherry on the top of this recruiting sundae by adding 4-star Kobie Eubanks. Even with the good class he put together in limited time, he also added a graduate transfer in former New Mexico Lobo Arthur Edwards.
