Very nice career for Granderson.

Hopefully he can spend even more time with UIC baseball now. Despite him saying he couldn’t envision stepping into coaching (Mike Dee has asked him to coach alongside him before Dee retires), maybe he’ll get the urge one day. If so, hire him in a heartbeat in whatever capacity he wants.

I do hope that he continues to stay a part of the UIC Baseball program in some capacity. I know that he does a baseball clinic at the school. I do hope that with a lot more free time he is able and willing to be an even greater presence. He is most likely the most successful athlete to come out of UIC and is already an amazing ambassador for the school. On top of that, what an amazing person and proud that he represents this school and program.
