in my humble opinion, i think Dickie V may be confusing "calming influence" with apathy. just seemed like he had checked out on the team.

I think he can be a decent coach, but I don't think he can deal with top tier talent. He can't recruit 'em, he can't coach 'em up either. It is one thing to compete at a lower level with a bunch of three stars who weren't heavily recruited and might take instruction better. It is another thing to step it up and try to recruit and compete against top talent. Anthony Grant clearly has struggles doing that.

Anthony's struggles are more on the offense. He was an exceptional defensive coach but not so much offensive.

Apathy Grant - in retrospect shouldn't that have been his name? Dunno about "calming influence," but he almost influenced 'Bama basketball into a state of euthanasia...

He just wasn't a good fit at a big time school. He did not get us on probation or sleep with his secretary, so I have nothing against him personally. I do hope he gets another shot at a mid-major, which may be more his type of place.
