Joe, Your thoughts on why Groome would decommit ? He could always go to Chipola the day before class starts. I can see that if he does not get the money he wants he could do one year instead of three. I think that's a terrible idea. I would guess his asking price verses the offer could not be too far apart.
Going to Chipola for a season might not help him in the draft at. Too much downside , he should take his money and move on.

I think this play could work in a 1:1 situation, but not in a 1:many situation. By telegraphing this before the draft, his adviser risks turning off clubs, and in a year where there isn't a clear #1, it's a very risky move. The adviser is going for it all, and the downside is that his client will drop down if not completely off the board. The risk/reward equation doesn't pan out.
