BuffaloRebound Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 I’d say that’s a good sign that Groot signs a 2nd contract to stay in Buffalo but college sports are now so transient with the portal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely seems like a good indicator that he's favorable to that and/or that the family really enjoys the environment. Wasn't his mom from here at one point or something?

You really stretched that one out. Come on man. By the way Lance Leipold has Kansas looking like a top 10 team next year. It’s really annoying UB has to keep rebuilding their programs in football and basketball. Hopefully UB can build back up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

msw2112 Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 I love UB, but for him to commit there over Michigan State or Pitt is a bit of a surprise, given the relative prestige of the programs and conferences. Perhaps he wants to be closer to his brother or he just thinks he'll get to start as a freshman at UB and might not get that opportunity at MSU and Pitt. With the way the transfer portal is these days, I've read that a lot of guys are going to smaller, less prestigious schools as a freshman and sophomore in order to get early playing time, with the plan to succeed and then transfer "up" to a major program. We'll see what happens with Rousseau, but I hope he does really well at UB and that his presence in town inspires his big brother to have a great season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
