Late Breaking: Anthony Grant Accepts Alabama

Anthony Grant, who had coached three seasons at VCU (winning the CAA regular season title all three seasons, winning the tournament title twice, and beating Duke in the 2007 NCAA tournament), has decided to take the job at Alabama after finding out Billy Donovan would not be leaving Florida.

The Alabama program has been a bit down of late, but it seems as if the school is trying to turn themselves into a two-sport powerhouse. He does have a decent core coming back in Mikhail Torrance (rising senior), Senario Hillman (a rising junior), and JaMychal Green (rising sophomore).
