Man, Groce's teams are some of the worst rebounding teams I have ever seen at Illinois. They are not teaching it properly and no doubt it is not a point of emphasis in practice. Hensons and Selfs teams were some of the best rebounding teams every single year and same holds for Izzo for the last decade and a half. It is a point of emphasis in those programs. I will give Groce credit for having consistently low turnover's every year but the rebounding has killed us. It will be a crime if indeed Leron Black is healthy and sitting on the bench. On a positive note, DJW is very skilled and he needs to play a lot more. He has a very nice skill set and seems willing to rebound.
