Game Thread: ****Official Game Thread - Bama vs. Vandy****
- Thread starter TIDE-HSV
- Start date
Vandy was the #13 team in the league and this was their first conference road victory..
Seems all our AD cares about is football. Even there, seeing how he has snipped with Saban about students staying/leaving late in games, I wonder of his real motives as AD. Regaedless, if Jr tells him Grant goes, Grant is fired.
That's my experience as well. All one needs to do is to improve their vocabulary and they can say whatever is on their mind. All they have to do is to relay their thoughts through a slightly different choice of words. Use those words correctly and you are free to say almost anything.
How 'bout this language for staying on message:
Grant's gotta go.
Most appropriate language for putting a fine point on it came from the ESPN announcer as the first half came to anther miscoached calamitous conclusion:
"What an implosion by Alabama!!!"
That - with the three exclamation points in his voice - was enough to send me to bed. And one can only hope it was the 911 call that was heard by those in authority who can respond to the sorry, sordid, imploding state of Alabama basketball.

I understand that perfectly. But when Bama did go inside and get hammered, it was a blocked shot. When Vandy went inside and got hammered it was a foul on Bama.
this may be the first post i've ever made on the b-ball board, and it could be my last.
i'm from the richmond, va. area and i was thrilled when anthony grant went to bama after his impressive run at VCU (which has now been totally eclipsed by shaka smart).
sadly, grant's tenure at the capstone has produced total mediocrity.
it's time for the university to start looking for a new coach.

I'll add my 2 cents. It also makes a difference on which thread is being posted to.
A game thread in basketball usually changes to a post-game thread rather than a new thread being created. The postgame thread is still basically focused on the specific game. While there is some drift to the future of Bama basketball and Coach Grant during the postgame portion, there is another thread already up and running that is the perfect location for posting discussions about the status and future of Coach Grand and Alabama basketball. You just have to know when to transition to the other thread...
The Future of Alabama Basketball
There was no reason for Alabama to lose this game at home against a very young Vanderbilt team.
I predicted Bama would win and score in the 70's with VU scoring in the 60's; maybe 75 to 65. I was feeling okay about 20 seconds before the end of the 1st half. I'm an idiot!
