SG Austin Grandstaff (transfer to Oklahoma, transfer to DePaul, transfer to Texas A&M-Commerce)

In hindsight, it is clear that Matta's staff did a poor job in talent and character evaluation. He was in denial about it, too. Matta never admitted to the end that they were getting good enough talent, but they clearly weren't. Grandstaff, Mitchell, Giddens, Lyle, Harris - none of them were both a good fit and player. Grandstaff is one of several guys Matta landed over the years who was an overrated one-trick pony.

it's interesting how some whine and whine about matta being a poor talent evaluator whose players didn't develop. well, gee... i guess that means he must have been a bonafide brilliant x's and o's coach. oh, wait... the same ones who whine about his talent evaluation, player development, and character evaluations also claim he sucked as an x's and o's coach. considering that, i'm amazed we ever won a game with such a pathetic coach. :roll1:
