We've got to win one in the tourney for my vote of confidence. Six years is plenty of time.
I did vote. Just making my thoughts public.Please vote in the poll. Let's get some numbers. It's anonymous!
I voted no coaching change if we make any post-season, but I'm not completely sold he'll be safe if we go to NIT.

Too few games played and too much time left to vote at this time. I'll give it a few more weeks to see how the season is going.Says the poll closes March 27, 2015; we've got some time to ponder.

That's ex-ACT-ly what I was thinking. All of the whining, but somehow "Alabama makes the NCAA, no coaching change." leads by a ton? Does not compute. Need more input.Interesting: All of the complaining and nobody wants to vote.
This.I am torn. I am still a little undecided as to how we'll do the rest of the year. I think it may be necessary to make a change, but I am not sure Coach Battle will feel the same.
This is my biggest problem with the situation. The "young" coaching talent just recently received extensions and who wants to come here and "right the ship"? Please don't say Izzo.This.
Every time I think Grant's time is up, the team does something to give me hope. Whether they win or show drastic improvement from one game to the next, they do something to give me enough hope to allow Grant to stay.
I understand Battle's decision either way as of right now. The rest of the season can easily push me to 100% keeping or 100% firing, but I can see either happening right now and wouldn't wonder why the decision was made.
My biggest reservation about firing him - who do we get? That's the big problem with any coach situation. Promise me we get someone that steps in and reach the tournament every year, and I'll be happy. Tell me we will go to the mid-majors to get someone, and I'll have my reservations.
Things are working out similar to the 2006 football season, though. A former college coach is not doing so well in the pro's and may consider coming back to the collegiate ranks. Can we get Brad Stevens out of Boston? If so, do it.
I would be thrilled with Brad Stevens. I really think if our AD will make a commitment to the basketball program then there is no reason why we can't get a top-notch coach like Stevens. Yes, I know CAG was considered a home-run hire at the time and I applaud Coach Moore for that hire. Sometimes they work out, sometimes they don't. Even if we hire Stevens (or someone similar) it might not work out but I think he is a proven commodity and could turn things around. I still hope CAG will turn things around before the end of the season but time is running short and the SEC is not going to give him many opportunities to prove me wrong.This.
