The problem is our roster next year shouldnt be a "rebuilding" yearI have always been a firm supporter of CAG. I think he is a great man, and has been a positive person in the lives of our players in an off the court capacity. I think he is a defensive guru, and for the most part has always had our teams near the top of the league defensively.
That being said, it is time for a change. Next year will likely be a rebuilding year, and I think it would be best to start from the ground up.
Why do we need 6 rebuilding years in a row?I have always been a firm supporter of CAG.

Ala-bsolutely correct. Then there's the equation that mediocrity + stasis = apathyWhen you hire someone for a position, there's always a chance it won't work out the way you hoped. But that is not a good enough reason for not making a change.
Came over to the board because I read JESS's article on the Football page. I voted no, but only because I am not sure who you would land that has a higher chance of success. Change for the sake of change is crazy, as most college basketball coaches are no better than Grant. That said, I understand your frustration. With your tradition and school pride, you expect better.
You could say that every year. So do we just stay running in place every year, hoping things get better?
We are 17-12 and have road games left with Ole Miss and Texas A&M. Is a 17-15 finish enough to make Battle pull the trigger? If we split this week and win a couple in the tourney and go deep in the NIT does he stay?
I honestly think TPTB don't care about any sport not named football and unless there is some scandal that breaks, he'll keep his job just to save the buyout.

No. If we get a new coach, it's going to most likely be some mid-major coach and we will be taking two steps back. All we need is a couple of big, banging hard mothers to bang the boards to help with our outside game.

^^ Mostly agree. We have been needing this for years. Do we think it is gonna change? A look at the incoming signees doesn't point to it.No. If we get a new coach, it's going to most likely be some mid-major coach and we will be taking two steps back.
