Alabama Soccer: Who Attacked Todd Grantham?

Alabama soccer followers are rightly involved that Nick Saban hasn’t introduced a alternative for Pete Golding.

Crimson Tide followers seem like nearly unanimously in assist of Jeremy Pruitt returning to his previous job as Alabama’s defensive coordinator.

Apparently, and for causes which can be laborious to grasp, somebody desires or thinks Nick will rent Saban, or employed Todd Grantham as an alternative.

The well-travelled Todd Grantham is employed by Alabama Soccer. He’s a defensive analyst for Nick Saban. The NCAA is contemplating altering the position of analysts to allow them to coach gamers on the observe area. If the NCAA makes the change, Grantham will truly be a Crimson Tide assistant coach.

He’s not the defensive coordinator now, and if he have been finally named, many Crimson Tide followers would have their hopes for the 2023 season dashed.

Primarily based on the inaccurate data that Grantham DC is named, the Wikipedia Web page for him must be averted. In equity to him, he’s had a fairly strong profession. There was a time when he was thought of a prime defender.

He had good seasons in Georgia and Louisville. His final two DC appearances have been with Dan Mullen in Mississippi State and Florida. Grantham’s protection was not nice at both Starkville or Gainesville.

He has vital school and NFL teaching expertise and can undoubtedly be a worthwhile addition to Nick Saban’s defensive finish. However Grantham may be the sort of Saban reclamation mission that doesn’t produce massive dividends. Many followers consider that Grantham’s defensive ideas and play-calling types are not efficient in opposition to in the present day’s explosive school soccer offenses.

TO UPDATE: The wiki web page was edited to take away its designation as Alabama DC

One other thought on the incorrect Grantham wiki web page is that it’s an efficient manner for an opposing crew fan to piss off Crimson Tide followers. Possibly there’s a sure humor in that. However I doubt very many Alabama Crimson Tide followers are laughing.
