I'm hearing a lot of chatter that Battle doesn't want to get rid of Grant, FIRE THEM BOTH!
Grant should've been gone last year. If Battle doesn't fire him this year, then Battle needs to be fired.

We need to go after Arkansas coach Mike Anderson. Dude has won everywhere he has been. He grew up in Birmingham an Alabama fan.

Maybe now Bama basketball can become relevant. I don't have a clue who we should go after but I know we are on our way to improving the team now.

We have the talent to make the NCAA tourney next year. We just need a coach that knows Offense.

Chatter on another board says we're going after Indiana's Tom Crean.

I am pretty sure Indiana fans don't like him and want him fired so he may be there for you.

I know nothing Tom Crean or any other coach. I rarely watch basketball and if I do it's usually just an Alabama game.

I just hope it's someone who knows offense. I love defensive football, running down the clock and whatever, but in basketball it just plain sucks ass. Throwing the ball around to each other for the entire shot clock only to brick it at the last second is boring as shit. In football there are still big plays and stuff that happen, but that's not the case in basketball.

It's so painful to watch. Especially when we got on long as scoring droughts in the 2nd half. How do you go like 10 minutes without scoring?

I think Steve Prohm the Murray State head coach would be a good choice. He is an Alabama Graduate and Murray State wins 25-27 games every year.

I've heard plenty of other Bama fans say we should go after Ben Howland...former UCLA coach. I think we need a home run hire, otherwise we're just going to stay bad to mediocre.

A lot of fans are saying Greg Marshall. I dont know if we could get him but I say we offer him 4million a year and see what happens.

Played well tonight. First game without Grant and probably the best they played all year. Beat the #3 seed from our #6 spot, so it wasn't just some easy win either.

Go figure.

We play #2 seed Miami in a few days next. Be nice if they can keep that offense going.

How about another VCU coach? Shaka Smart

Just heard on the Radio that he has emerged as our #1 target and after VCUs loss yesterday we have been in talks with him. I think it will be Smart, Steve Prohm, or Bobby Hurley,but we have to get someone that can compete with Pearl.

I honestly wouldn't mind us rehireing Mark Gottfried. At least with him we will make the tournament most years.

Looks like we are gearing up to make a run at the coach for Wichita State, Gregg Marshall. Sources say they may offer him as much as 3 million per year and Saban may be involved in an all out attempt to get a big name coach. I hope this works, if not anything less would seem like a second best option.

I've heard the same thing. And that if Marshall does come to T-town, the university practically owes Saban a finders fee lol

Marshall is the clear #1 target now and he has had his agent do research on us. I don't think he leaves Witchita State for 3 million. We are going to have to pay him 4 million IMO for him to leave. But just like Saban he will be well worth the investment.
