Very high praise from Groce in that article. Comparing him to Foster plus additional praise.

Groce said he went to the camp more to look for an addition to the 2008 recruiting class, but when he saw Hill's quickness and energy, and learned he was qualified to transfer immediately, it "afforded us an opportunity to get a guy we thought was a great fit for us.

That surprises me. When I originally saw that we added a new JUCO PG that no one had heard of, I figured Groce was told to go to this camp to try to find a point guard, because we (I thought) are in desperate need of one. I think its interesting that he wasn't even there with the intent of finding us a PG.

Early indications from open gym are that Hill will be more than a serviceable player who will take up minutes......  |

Outstanding news! Could it be that we don't miss a beat this season? Well, maybe not. You just cant replace a Greg Oden or a Mike Conley, but it sounds as if this team will be tenacious on defense and if we find the shooters to step up the sky seems to be the only limit. Definitely like what I hear on a daily basis coming from Matta's camp.

The newest member of the OSU men's basketball team -- Midland Community College transfer P.J. Hill -- could end up helping the school in another way. The 6-foot-1 point guard has a talented basketball-playing sister, Tayler, who has been on the OSU women's team's recruiting radar.
