Yes, i did try that. When i talked with MS we tried via Powershell and i did look on the SharePoint Admin center. However since it is a site that gets created when an O365 group gets created, I believe that those sites don't show up there which is why we could not recover it from there.

    I did trying restoring it from Powershell and had no success, unless I'm missing something.
    
    My other question is can you delete only the SharePoint site that gets created when the group get created. I didn't think you could which is why I'm trying to figure out how it got deleted. But then again maybe I'm overlooking something.
