[QUOTE="Ulysses Everett McGill, post: 1287369, member: 327307"] Met him in a similar fashion at the Texas State FB game weekend a several years ago. It was at the iHotel and he called me over because he liked my grubby 70s era Illinois BB t-shirt. Very nice convo with a very nice guy. He had to wrap it up quickly as JCL and family pulled up and we're coming through the door. Like to think I brought us luck there.:) Echo everything that's been said about what a fine guy Groce is. Just couldn't get it done here, though it wasn't for not trying. I predict he'll land on his feet and continue to recruit well wherever he lands. A lot of the basketball side I never could figure what he was doing/thinking, but it's water under the bridge. Good luck to Messrs Groce and Whitman, and thanks to JG for avoiding the word mollycoddle today. Go Illini! [/QUOTE]
