The issue here was TA was supposed to be our pg for the past 3 years. You can't blame him or Groce for using up another scholarship on him. What you can blame Groce for is not going after a guy like TJL 2 years ago when TA got hurt the first time, or even before he got hurt (this is the correct answer). Guys who are that severely injured aren't going to come back and become all conference players.
This was largely the point I was trying to make. I forgot all of the details of the KL signing, but you summarized it nicely. The point was we shouldn't have gone for so many 1 or 2 year guards when we could've been developing younger guys (Frazier is viewed as a savior of the program, but fringe top 100 guys are guys you should be able to land here anytime, should've pushed for one before TJL). Those decisions really hurt.
