[QUOTE="Obelix, post: 1175933, member: 7292"] As I said in previous post, eventually, some recruit(s) will overachieve as other will underachieve. The problem is basing future success of our program on "expectations" that they will overachieve, combined with expectations of overachievement along multiple dimensions (e.g., recruits, existing players, transfers, etc.) That is the unrealistic part IMO. Never said comparisons, I specifically said "references." If anyone meant "comparisons" (I hope not...) they need to see a doctor. And the point is that while coaches may struggle when they lose players (the degree to which may greatly vary), let's not pretend that the dissatisfaction with Groce is specifically about this game (thus the reference to Izzo losing Valentine) or even this season. It is about the the foundation of the program, recruiting, and prior performances; a situation that is totally different than Izzo's. [/QUOTE]
