Hale wasn't benched, Cooper and Tarrant were. Grant said it was only to give them a rest. I'm not really sure what message that would have been sending to Coop, anyways. Kid needs all the confidence he can get. Benching him after the game he had would destroy him.

I haven't read this whole thread. So if I am putting a few words into folks mouths I apologize. Some people are saying he can recruit, but he can't coach. And that we have more talent than we have had in decades. That is complete nonsense. He can't recruit a lick. Gottfried is a way better recruiter than Coach Grant. We haven't had quality bigs the whole time he has been there. Even if u have NBA players sprinkled in the perimeter (which we don't), u still need bigs that can catch a basketball. Or at least maintain rebounding position on defense. Our bigs are so terrible under Coach Grant. More talent than we have had in decades. Absolute lunacy. In the mid to late 90s, alabama had more NBA players than almost any college in America. I would guesstimate around 8th. We haven't had an NBA player in freaking years. To say that we have real talent is just not true. The part that really makes me insane is we are supposed to be an "up-tempo pressing style" team. How the hell can u be a pressing team and your players can't break an opposing team's press? I wanted to fire Coach Grant last year but I think Battle is either chicken shite or has no real power. If he doesn't have the balls or power to fire coach grant after this season then Battke can go screw as well. I am tired of watching bad basketball. And people get it out of your heads that we are even a mediocre basketball team. We are a few notches away from even mediocrity.

Hale has regressed this year. Cooper's been better, but is still extremely inconsistent and was completely disengaged against Wichita State.
