Kolek planning to go pro
Reports saying that it's going to be Ohio's Groce.Flavor of the week hire, it appears. Anybody know much about him?
Keno still making your list, Chico?
He's #6! He's #6!...on Illinois' wish list, that is.
Yes, yes he is. Absolutely. Yes, he is definitely still on Chicos my list. Along with Phil Jackson, Pat Riley and Adoph Rupp.
Some Illini fans not happy...If we hire Groce, we are hiring the brother of the guy Kelvin Sampson hired to be IUs video coordinator, right? And this guy was Eric Gordon's AAU coach, right? So we would be hiring the brother of a guy who was likely a key figure in the Eric gordon sabotage/deception/whatever you want to call it right? This sits well with Illini fans?Groce 34-30 MAC record...The MAC is not up to par conference..Stevens 73-17 HorizonSmart 38-16 CAA
Who are the five that turned it down besides Shaka and Brad Stevens? Is Buzz officially on that list? Who am I missing?
Did you intend Teal? While I see you point there are some pretty important differences.First Buzz was on staff for a year so everyone almost a year to "measure" him.Second Buzz was a lot younger than this guy so what he had "or hadn't" accomplished has to be measured by age.Third Buzz was the current players choice. In the back of their mind MU had to figure that if they kept the Amigos happy they had a NCAA appearence and likely even sweet 16 almost in the bag.Ill gets none of that. Big Risk. couldn't happen to a nicer school!
