The former Illini basketball star had some incredibly puzzling comments published today.
To say that things surrounding and involving the Illinois Fighting Illini basketball program are currently less than ideal would qualify as an egregious understatement. The team currently has a 10-10 record and is on the precipice of missing the NCAA tournament for the third year in a row for the first time in almost 40 years. This understandably has John Groce on the hot seat.
While it's too early to say Illinois will officially be hunting for a new coach this spring, that hasn't stopped people from suggesting candidates.
