Scarbinsky: Clemson coach Oliver Purnell on Tide’s list of potential basketball coaches

Looking for a good basketball coach? Look at this guy.
He’s enjoying his third straight 20-win season at his current school, and he’s won 20 games at least once at four different schools.
He’s moving toward his second straight NCAA Tournament trip at his current program, and he’s taken three different programs to the NCAA Tournament.
He’s shaming other coaches with national championships on their resumes. In the last month, his team has beaten Mike Krzyzewski and Duke by 27 points and Gary Williams and Maryland by 29.
Would you be interested in a coach like that?
