"We felt, no question about it, he had a compelling story. He's very close with his grandmother. She helped raise him. He moved from Oregon State to Illinois, (2,000)-some miles. I thought his case was very, very valid. We were really disappointed," Groce said Wednesday. "Not only was I disappointed, I don't understand the consistencies and inconsistencies in the waiver process. It's amazing as you read about some of these guys that get waivers, and distance didn't matter. All of a sudden in this one, it does. It's crazy."
