This whole thing revolves around how KK was utilized at tOSU.....not how he was treated....it is about philosophy and it is pretty classless for a HS coach to be critical of a fellow coach via a newspaper in my opinion....

Memo to Greynolds:
Tell your kids to stay in school until the quarter is over so they do not put the University that gave them a free education in jeopardy of losing a scholarship. Also, don't treat them like babies in high school because they won't be treated like that when they play in college.![]() |

Don't you think that Thad and/or his staff would have informed KK of that....
Heck, I even know that it would hurt the Buck's APR rating and I am not the one on schollie.... Amazing ... Koufos' decision to leave Ohio State wasn't a welcome one in Columbus. His departure will hurt the Buckeyes' APR rating, a grading scale used by the NCAA. Koufos and his mother, Kathy, said they were unaware that if Koufos left in the middle of the spring quarter that it could factor into OSU losing a scholarship because of APR sanctions |

I found this in an article on the web (his father, Jack Greynolds is in Ohio High School Basketball Coaches Hall of Fame): CANTON, OH ? GlenOak basketball coach Jack Greynolds Jr. has plenty of traits in common with his renowned late father. Now, he can add another one, having coached an eventual NBA player. Greynolds has high hopes for Koufos - Massillon, OH - The Independent Apparently a trait that Jr. didn't inherit from his father was to "show some class by knowing when to just keep your mouth shut". I'll go way out on a limb here and say that Greynolds probably isn't on Matta's "short list" of coaches to fill the Groce vacancy. ![]() |

While I agree with much of what has been said about his high school coach in Matta's thread, and the above post, and I was one of the negative posters, that has to stop here.

Question: What is the difference betwee Jack Greynolds Jr.and Thad Matta ?
Answer: The former will never coach a player of Kosta Koufos' ability ever again. The latter will. There is no need for further discussion or to react by running down Koufos or his coach. |

Dispatch
How Koufos really feels? Kosta Koufos was nothing but polite and respectful all the way to the end of his one and only season at Ohio State, calling Thad Matta a great coach and saying he would have played one season for the Buckeyes even if the NBA had not instituted a rule requiring players to be one year out of high school before entering the draft. Koufos left it to others in his camp to air whatever dirty laundry accumulated during his year in Columbus, and his coach at Canton GlenOak High School, Jack Greynolds Jr., aired it today in the Canton Repository. Greynolds didn?t use the word ?great? to describe Matta. Greynolds called Matta ?clueless.? "Listen, if you can't get along with a kid like Kosta, then you're clueless," Greynolds said. "If you're making $2 million (a) season and can't figure out how to use a 7-foot-1 kid, you're clueless. If you can't get along with a kid who comes early, stays late and gets good grades, you're clueless, and you've got the problem." Cont... |
