agreed. But he's sooo young. Needs to get beyond some of that baby fat. We know he can dunk against smaller players, but that's about it.That kids mobility looks terrible, even for a big guy.

Some of us are told to forget about Nance. I will do that on the day he publicly declares his decision. Until that time comes, I'll continue to hold out hope.
Yep, while it may be unlikely. There waa a time we're TSJ was all but gone too. That changed quicklySome of us are told to forget about Nance. I will do that on the day he publicly declares his decision. Until that time comes, I'll continue to hold out hope.
You nailed it…succinctly and accurately stated.I think Weber is the better coach. Groce is still improving and may close the gap. But Weber crashed a Benz and Groce totaled a Kia. I’m not sure which is worse, but I’m glad Underwood has the wheel now.
Here's a hot take: Weber was a fantastic X's and O's coach who failed to win at the recruiting game because he wouldn't play it the way needed to be successful. Remember when Derrick Rose and company visited him and his team (brother I think?) asked him, "What can you do for us?" Weber left the room. His integrity was a huge part of his downfall.

Upvoted for proper use of "brakes"Yall will always find a way to look at the negative, even after everything BU has done. Brad is getting paid millions to figure out if a players fits, you're not. So let's pump the brakes on judging a kid before he even commits to play for us.
Also, I'm sorry not everyone has their life figured out at 14-18 years old like some of you apparent prodigies did.
I saw those same 4 cars in the Pizza Hut parking lot a few days ago.Live look in at Underwood, Tim, and Chester...

The day Weber failed to land Sherron Collins to replace Dee IMO was the beginning of that crash. Recruiting downturn until Snacks arrived.I think Weber is the better coach.

If this happens, I'll watch Duke while simultaneously wishing them to lose and hoping Jake has a good game.Keds reporting Grandison to Duke...
Exactly. Groce’s tenure was undoubtedly worse, but that’s not a fair comparison. I’m positive Groce would not have coached the 2005 group as flawlessly as Weber, but … I’m not 100% convinced 2006-07 Illinois head coach John Groce takes us downhill as quickly as Weber, either.I think Weber is the better coach.

Am I the only one that looks at Duke and realizes that regardless of recruiting class now that expecting a guy that has never coached a game will personally watch the prestige of Duke decline slowly each year that K is gone. The chances that he's going to pull an Izzo and build an empire without previously coaching a game is looking pretty slim. I guess 17 and 18 year olds don't know their history with basketball programs (Wooden, Knight, etc.) and what happens after they leave (gradual decline). Blue Bloods will always be towards the top in name recognition, but not in the NET or Rankings.
Let me go on record that I like the UNC coach personally, but he was just able to close the deal on the natty (unlike Weber). That's the only difference. Will be interesting to see what happens to that program over the next few years as well.

With the momentum of 2001-2005 behind him, Groce would have recruited at a very high level. Post-2005 he would have been far more successful than WeberExactly.
