grainy when sunny???

I've been told that when shot in direct sunlight rather than overcast conditions, B&W films tend to show a lot more grain. Is this true? Recently I had some TMY negs developed at a custom lab. They came back with grain larger than I'd ever seen with Tmax. They fed me the "grainy when sunny" junk. Are they just trying to coverup their shity developer?
