Good luck to Garvin. I don't think any of his shortcomings were a result of a lack of effort. I think he could have been a solid backup point guard for the Zips which holds some value but I am not losing any sleep over his loss. On a positive note, it may increase the chances of Tavari's return.

More will come to me, but just off the top of my head I would add McLaughlin, Derrick Tarver, Marcel Boyce and Jeremiah Wood.

To his credit, he appears to have kept his head in the game and tried to contribute in other ways. He had to have a target on his back after the lead up to Dayton.

Not a great championship game for Nichols- two points, five assists, four steals and three rebounds.

Groce was at the Hoban- St. Ed's game in Brimfield a couple weeks ago, most likely to see Nichols.

I hope his account was hacked. That's PCCC athletics level literacy.

I can work you a real deal on some Matthew Wilsons for your collection!

Agreed. This was not a curious kid. This was a kid that overvalued his position and was generally a PITA.

It has been a busy week! LOL. I'm a little out of the loop.

Where do you see Kobe Mitchell fitting in? I'd love to see the reincarnation of Xeyrius and a 6'4" guard with some offense fill those last two spots.

Great work @mes102

Should Toledo's AD expect a letter?

Will we have to respect their decisions when that happens?

10.2 ppg, 2.5 assists, 41% on 3-pointers, 6'1" freshman guard. Hmmmmm. I would out though that Prince Mosengo also had some time at Victory Rock Prep!

Keeps looking for greener grass. Keeps finding asphalt.

Really! Who would move a coach along then hire someone on their staff? Looking forward to seeing your list mes102.

That's why I stated "but having to balance the other sports."

Maybe I missed something, but when is the spring game? I am running short on the Bowden football camp t-shirts I get in those grab bags! It was April 30th last year.

Agreed. They say a conference is only as good as its worst teams. If that's the case, the MAC is really bad. I've love to excise the directionals or find another conference, but having to balance the other sports and the everchanging face of conferences makes those options very difficult.

As thin as this team was in bigs, you'd think this kid would have found his way onto the active roster if the staff saw real talent in him. I won't fret any more of this loss than I did Tre Edwards, Sekou Kalle, Taylor Currie...

I think Garvin is a legitimate D1 point guard, as a backup. 15 minutes a night to spell the starters and not hurt the team while he's in, an occasional start when someone is out. I think Tavari will be in time a good starting D1 point guard. Oddly, the Zips success this year may have slowed his development as being in contention forced the Zips to keep the veteran guys on the floor. It was no time to experiment or prepare for the future. Clearly, Groce likes point guards that cab score the ball and Tavari has shown an ability to do that.

I always got the sense with Noah that his recovery was as much mental as physical. He looked to be back on the floor with regard to speed, movement, etc. but seemed hesitant/reluctant and unaggressive after this return and for the rest of his tenure with the Zips. Great kid.

One thing that I will say for Mr. Pinky that has somewhat tempered my criticism is that Groce says positive things about him. I think we can all agree that Dakich is a tool and a troll.

Toledo off to a good start tonight in the 69th place tournament.

Me too (unless it is critical about Mr, Pinky! LOL).
