Never gave Grant a chance.
I'm surprised he kept 3 of the 5. I wouldn't have considered it a failure on Grant's part if he hadn't kept any. A recruit spends a lot of time researching just to cut it down to a handful and then a couple of schools they want to attend and play for. Most of the time, the Coach and his personality plus the basketball style he coaches is the main decider. It takes a huge coincidence for the new coach hired from outside to fit the same criteria said player was looking for.

And AG is not off the hook yet. If the players he retained turn out to be less than desired due to AG's coaching style then it would've been a mistake to keep them. Changing systems is very messy all the way around. Players that feel there aren't any better options left due to it being to late might stay and not be right for the system.

So the real test for AG is going to be if he can tweek his own desired system to make the most out of the resources he has and then gradually build the resources to fit his system.
