Gottfried says he still loves UA
Mark Gottfried was fired Monday after 10 ½ years as the University of Alabama men’s basketball coach, but he would not fire back Thursday in an interview with The Birmingham News. “I will never in my lifetime utter a negative word about Alabama,” Gottfried said. “I love the place.”
