The search firms allow for confidentiality. Otherwise, GT could get a public records request for emails and documents relating to search. I think in this situation...maybe more warranted than others. How about announcing Holliday as coach during the Marshall basketball game? Too cute by half?
I'm going to disagree with you on that point. Groce's teams are very fit and are built to run the floor. That's not why they are missing wide open 3s. Talent level, confidence, and attitude.
All those MAC teams got knocked out in 2nd round of soccer (not counting WVU). Think of it this way, they didn't have to bus, house, and feed them in KY. Money saved.
And while they are at it, hire back that laid off history professor who was the expert on New Orleans voodoo and the Salem Witch Trials and beg her for mercy.
His teams have not done well in these "tournaments." Hawaii and Cayman Islands were bad. They didn't play that well in DC, either, losing badly to Liberty and beating Tulane by 1.
"Akron gives Groce contract extension through '26"
The bloom is off this rose. Hey, if you can't be the best team, try and be the worst.
Keep it under 40 guys.
I'm just following the stats and the lack of free throws shows they aren't being aggressive going to the rim. Isn't Walton supposed to be driving and slicing and drawing fouls?
effing dejavu with Aziz. I could coach the other teams and tell them the bare minimum they need to do to beat Akron.
There was a time when I enjoyed looking at the MAC stats and see the Zips leading in FT shooting and 3 point % and close in other categories.
Going the same route as yesterday's game. Whichever laid off professor put a curse on the athletic program did a good job!
