ST. LOUIS (AP) — Ohio’s John Groce isn’t saying whether he’s interested in filling any of the high-profile coaching vacancies out there.

Groce’s name has been connected to the Nebraska and Illinois openings.

Groce said Thursday he would withhold comment on his future until after the Bobcats’ season. Ohio plays North Carolina in the Midwest Regional semifinals in St. Louis on Friday.

Groce says it’s flattering to be mentioned for jobs in a power conference like the Big Ten because it means he’s doing something right.

The Bobcats (29-7) are in the round of 16 for the first time since 1964.
