People need to stop laying all the blame on Battle. Keeping Grant wasn't one man's decision. If we switched ADs with AU, we'd be in the same boat and so would they. AU had 4 losing seasons and finished 49-75 in Barbee's tenure. That's with them playing nobodies in their non-conference schedule year in and year out. They made a change because they HAD to.

We can't really blame Battle on this one. Grant (most likely) was kept this year because of his excessive buyout. If we didn't owe Grant a ton of money we would have let him go after this season. I believe he signed that extension under coach Moore. If that was under Battle's tenure then that is on him, but I think that was on coach Moore. If Battle doesn't even have enough pull to fire a coach that sucks because he was one of Mal Moore's guys then we need to fire him and get a real AD (not some pass the torch type guy).
