Reportedly Mullen wanted to fire him last year but his buyout during the pandemic was too much for UF to stomach. He makes 1.8 and his contract runs thru 2022. So he definitely is down after this year.
Grantham got lucky, in 2017 he rode Manny Diaz’s and Peter Sirmon’s players at Mississippi St. Then he goes to UF in 2018 and rides a pretty good UF defense that Geoff Collins left stocked.
Problems start to surface in 2020 when the defense lost the Collins guys and are left with the guys he brought in.
Now who’s idea was it to give Grantham that contract, Mullen or the AD Stricklin? That definitely constitutes a fireable offense.
