Yeah, I have no animosity towards this kid. He knows there are too many good RB's at Bama and he wants to play.

Home sick!! There are other schools that he could have gone to and been assurd of a lot of playing time, it's a hit or miss deal at the Barn.

Grant said he had no ill will toward Alabama. 


"I think sometimes you go to a place at the wrong time," Grant told AuburnSports.com. "Alabama is a great place. I learned a lot of things. I got better in a lot of areas I needed to improve on. 


"I don't leave Alabama with any hard feelings. I just felt like I would be a better fit at Auburn."

Sounds like a good kid who just missed home. Can't say I blame him, and I wish the best for him (as long as his best isn't against us).
