I don't wish him any ill, I just wish he'd had the decency to step aside once he was no longer interested in putting in the work to make Bama a contender.
I don't know anything about Gottfried's work ethic. I do think that he probably hit the ceiling on what he was able to accomplish at Bama. He was a coach who could get a team into the NCAA Tournament but was never going to win it. Recruits looking for a championship looked elsewhere.
CAJ, on the other hand, has coached and played very well at the professional level. (Really an impressive hire.) That has an appeal to recruits that Gottfried lacks. CAJ also is a much better coach, and a nice person. I'm hoping this incoming class is just the start of something special.
Perhaps CAJ can hire Gottfried as an analyst.
