Good riddance and a long time coming in my opinion. Grad was all bluster and had little to back it up except a sketchy background . He was as useful as a screen door on a submarine .
Getting Bill Corcoran on board gives them a man with great and vast knowledge and a 30 year background in the hobby with a sterling reputation. I do not believe he will be influenced by AH tactics or pressure . I hope PSA will leave Bill alone and let him do his job. Congratulations PSA for getting Bill and congratulations to Bill , you lend PSA instant credibility again.

I heard that was coming. Rumor is that Grad wants to open his own authentication business.

But who is actually looking at the thousands of autographs submitted? Surely not just Corcoran and Keating--if they, indeed, look at any at all.

Based on the page of experts on the PSA site the only two people with any experience in vintage sports autographs are Bill and Kevin.
I would hope that the company will be smart enough to only let those two handle that area. In the past it was always a guess as to who actually examined any item. I would hope that in the area of vintage sports ONLY Bill and Kevin will be examining those items.

I have posted here in the past about my thoughts on TPA's.
Now one of the TPA companies has added two people on staff that I respect. I know first hand about auction company pressure on TPA's. I have experienced and successfully fought against that pressure before. Though I have to say that some of the auction houses never attempted to exert any pressure on authenticators. I have to believe that these guys will do the job right despite any pressure that will be placed on them by AH's and the corporate environment that they will be in.
