Around SBN: 2012 Africa Cup Of Nations Final

The search for a new head basketball coach at the University may be coming to an end as Virginia Commonwealth University’s Anthony Grant has emerged as the top candidate.

Grant, who according to multiple sources is expected to travel to Tuscaloosa Wednesday, could receive a formal offer during his visit, the Tuscaloosa News reports.

Anthony Grant is in Tuscaloosa
I live in Birmingham and the footage of him arriving in Tuscaloosa is all over the local news. Word is that they will offer him the job today and give him up to 5 days to decide one way or another. Also, they said they are prepared to offer him up to $2 million to secure him. I think it would be a great hire for Alabama and the SEC. As a Billy Donovan shadow for so long, the guy can most likely flat out coach.

Lets go Cats, take down the Fighting Irish tonight! GO BIG BLUE!!

I like Grant a lot.

But, IF UK is in search of a new coach, they need to try and pluck an established guy from his team (my dream coach would be Calipari from Memphis) and avoid guys who haven’t yet proven themselves at the elite level. We already took a chance on an “up-and-comer,” and it didn’t (hasn’t) worked out so well.

Let me make clear that I want Gillispie to stay for at least one more year. Unfortunately, I think his media blunders are what will push Barnhart and Todd over the edge and let him go tomorrow morning.
