He may very well be in the mix, but those two posts are just speculation imo

Jeff Borzello:

 

After Thad Matta's retirement on Monday, Butler has moved quickly in its search, already conducting virtual interviews with candidates. Current Atlanta Hawks assistant and former Butler guard Ronald Nored is the perceived favorite for the job, but several mid-major coaches with Butler ties are also expected to be involved: Akron's John Groce, Miami (Ohio)'s Travis Steele and Illinois State's Ryan Pedon.

Again, expected to be involved. Do we even have confirmation that he interviewed?

If he didn't, I'm certain something would have been leaked, similar to Holtmann and Shrewsberry. Sometimes silence can be deafening.

Not sure of the need to comment on something that hasn't even been reported is my take

UNC just canned Hubie Davis. That's going to make this even more interesting.

Not sure who this account is or if they're reliable, but they're claiming Groce is gone.

I only thought he'd love for home (Butler/Indy). USF is not the type of job I had on my radar at all.

It's in the replies. Could just be a rando on Twitter, but he is followed by a bunch of coaches.

Not Groce related, but that account had Hubie Davis out 4 days ago. Maybe lucky, maybe onto something. We'll probably find out tomorrow.

Absolutely did not see Groce to USF being in the cards. Wow.

This guy is either off his rocker and crap sticks to the wall or we're about to have the craziest coaching carousel ever.

I blame Castaneda.
