I'm with teague. I see Grant possibly sticking around a while and building a program that he can call his own at Bama. It's been long enough since the Plaid Palace that its no longer Wimp's team. He has an ego, you can tell it, and he wants to be able to say that whatever team he is on, he built. Pure and simple.

Could I be wrong? Absolutely

Is Tennessee gonna be the job he leaves for? Not even if Bruce Pearl's girlfriend came with the office.

I'm still baffled by this idea that the "Tennessee job is CLEARLY a better job". What is this based on? BTW, that doesn't mean that Alabama's a better job. They are practically identical history wise and support their programs on the same level and earn as much money as each other when they're both successful. Sure, if we're comparing each school's last 5 years I get it but what does that have to do with each school's potential?

He is already the highest paid coach in the nation with 1 or fewer NCAA tourney wins by far.

i dont believe any of this shite, but it still makes me a little nervous. Living in Tennessee, i would be frickING pissed if we went to UT. The UT fans talked so much shite all year about "how grant could only lead us to the NIT" but now that they think they might get him he is fricking John Wooden.

No one has said this, in fact I would be mildly disappointed in the hire.

I think the only rational thing to do is for Bama to offer him a lot of guaranteed money

I mean the man almost got you guys into the NCAA this year

Anthony Grant seems to have something going on at Bama. I think it would be a mistake to leave for Tennessee right now.

Only SEC Basketball coaches that are clients of Sexton are Mike Anderson and Rick Stansbury.
