[QUOTE="ChrisNMattoon, post: 1205023, member: 592623"] I don't think JW has a choice here. Has to stick it out with Groce for at least one more year. I would say, probably a few years. 1. He doesn't have a coach he can get right now. No need to go and pull same mistake we have in past with a coach you HOPE will get job done. 2. Buyout is like 2.4 million, plus for a really good coach, what? 3 million year? You're looking at something like another 10-12 million commitment? Don't see it. 3. Recruiting hit. I really don't like putting all of our eggs in the Tilmon basket, been burned to many times before. We need Goodwin badly, but if you miss on one...... was it worth it to keep Groce? I've gone back and forth about him. Bottom line is I don't think he can compete in B1G and we need to be in the process of finding a new coach, if it takes a year then fine... Take time, line something up and then make the move. [/QUOTE]
