Agreed.  He is gonna be a good player.  Part of me thinks that even if Groce had stayed, we would have lost him anyway.  He grew so much after he signed with us that once the major offers started rolling in, he would have taken one regardless.

Listed at 6'4 when we signed him. Listed at 6'5 now, is that really "so much"?

Also, LOI is binding without a coaching change or some other hardship. I don't see anyway he could have gotten out of it had Groce stayed. 

will you sign autographs ?

It's rhetoric like this that makes me savor even more the times when it gets shoved back down someone's throat.  Going into ancient history: When Mike Haley tells a stunned Jimmy Crum on live statewide TV that he's not interesting in Ohio State but that he's going to Ohio.  Or, when Todd Snyder told Woody Hayes he wasn't interested in O$U because he was planning to stay in Athens for his college education.  Or, more recently when Ohio beats Penn State and shuts up some of the talking heads who said Ohio didn't stand a chance against an emotionally charged vastly superior team.  Or, last basketball season when Ohio gets dissed all over the place about being out of its league against Michigan that we promptly turned into MichiGONE.  I'm really tired of being the Rodney Dangerfield of college athletics.  In my book, respect begins at home.  How will others respect us if we don't respect ourselves?  GO OHIO!

Watching Sportscenter, Wisconsin's half court heave to send the game into overtime was over Levert. Beilein wanted his guys to foul Wisconsin before the shot. Levert dropped the ball there.

Honestly I wouldn't have put LeVert in the game at that situation. He's a cool level kid who doesn't foul. I don't even remember him getting more than one or two fouls in a year. 

Football maybe, basktball not so much. Until recently very few guys re opened their recruiting. Most coaches are prettygood about getting off a kid once he has committed. About the only time ....up till very recently....that a committed and signed HS kid changes schools is because his coach is gone. Unlike football, hoops is still a gentleman's game when it comes to recruits and respect as they do not want to get poached either.

The underlying tone to your posts that everyone sees except yourself.  I'm not trying to get in the same argument again though.
