Zippy87 Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 2 hours ago, 1981 grad said: Will somebody please tell Groce to stop recruiting from Northern Illinois. First, Trendon Hankerson and now Thornton. Hankerson was a solid, but Thornton was a swing and miss. We've thankfully had a lot more hits than misses, though. 2 hours ago, LoyalZIP said: I hate when Groce recruits role players who do exactly as they are asked Groce would never say it but I'd bet he expected a lot more from Thornton as a senior guard.

Will somebody please tell Groce to stop recruiting from Northern Illinois. First, Trendon Hankerson and now Thornton. My apologies on Hankerson. He was a solid player for the Zips. I was thinking of another player that I believe transferred from Northern Illinois (maybe it was another school) that left the team in the middle of the season. He was a good guard that liked to drive to the basket and never shot a three ball. I cannot remember his name but turned out to be a fifth year transfer that just decided to quit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akzipper Posted March 2 Report Share Posted March 2 Yikes this is embarrassing. I swear if we lose the one of the worst teams in the MAC, after losing to .500 Ohio. I'm not going to have much hope to the MAC tournament. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
