Compared to other B1G coaches who replaced fired coaches (as opposed to those retiring) how is John Groce doing after year 3? B1G record only to remove scheduling differences. Jordan, Pitino, and Collins only have 2 years at their schools.

Matta 35-13 .714
Groce 24-30 .444
Turgeon(ACC) 23-29 .442
Beilein 21-33 .389
McCaffery 21-33 .389
Miles 21-33 .389
Pitino 14-22 .389
Collins 12-24 .333
Chambers 12-42 .222
Jordan(AAC) 7-29 .194
Crean 8-46 .148

Matta is the outlier. Turgeon with 14 in his 4th year(2015) is probably the only coach who will move ahead of him after next year. This information seems to show how difficult it is to win in the B1G early in your career wit a new school. Groce will most likely be 3rd out of 11 after next year. Looking at this data his performance to date seems above the level of other B1G hires.
