The circus "hold music" is fitting.  It kinda feels like looking at a car wreck as I pass by...

Groce's wife walking on stage in bright orange almost made me vomit in my mouth a little bit. Just sayin...

I'm reminded: Coach introductions are the most useless kind of press conference. And all press conferences are useless.

From the way I'm interpreting this...this is a dream job for Groce. He's gonna be there a long time. It doesn't take the sting out of the loss, but I don't really feel so upset about it.

Groce just said he's planning on bringing some assistants from Ohio, but it's not set in stone and is based on how Ohio's coaching hire goes.

When asked about his staff

"I'll be bringing some guys here from my staff at Ohio. Specifically it depends on who they hire..."

Wonder who he's taking?

He also said its in flux depending on who we hire for our next coach. Hintw Groce thinks one if our assistants might be Ohio's next coach.

I actually do think this would make sense.

Really?  Wow.  OK, I hope we play them.  My bet will be on "The Kid" all-day

Ok...strange answer...Sun Times reporter asks about Groce's MAC record barely above .500 and he best response was "there's always skeptics and I'm happy to be standing here today."

Guess now in Big Ten, can't give same props to the competitiveness of league teams like Kent, Akron and Buffalo as he was a couple weeks ago?
