Odds are you are right Clark. I am just saying Groce is likely putting in his best effort at this very moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the odds are above 50%, but I don't think it's a done deal by any means. I've read a few articles that talk about the strong connection he has to WSU, and to me if he was sold on being a Shocker, he would have committed already. Enter Groce...

Let'sGoZips94 Posted April 23, 2018 Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Wichita State added another guard. There is some speculation that Neftali might be getting pushed out of their picture. UTEP recently had a house visit and offered him, but Akron is still in the running as far as we know. Our JUCO additions are interesting because those guys don't really hinder Neftali since he would be a true freshman, with really only those guys possibly ahead of him.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it fails to mention that Gueye is from the University of South Carolina, Parrish left, and LePear Toles will also be an addition, along with the transfers that sat out last year. With that being said, I am VERY excited for next season. Edited May 7, 2018 by Let'sGoZips94 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's correct, AFAIK. GT has never been one to pay much attention to detail, unless we're talking about movie plots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkwgriswold Posted May 8, 2018 Report Share Posted May 8, 2018 GT's article on the new recruits. I wonder if he's realized they're not all eligible for this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZZZips Posted May 14, 2018 Report Share Posted May 14, 2018 Looks like we have wrapped it up for this chaotic post season. https://bit.ly/2GdXNKs I have not seen any news on where some of last years departing players have landed. Anyone have any updates I missed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is going to be a fun, fun upcoming season. Let's Go Zips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper, it looks like JG has assembled quite a roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a-zip Posted May 15, 2018 Report Share Posted May 15, 2018 Is it building a program to have 6 recruits already having collegiate experience? Or is it someone looking to try and make an impact and get another big job. Fire away at me lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather see the impact than have a similar experience to some of the other MAC schools that are perpetually mediocre while hanging onto the same coach who never does well enough to move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
