You can't say "illini for life" then go to a main conference rival, don't care if that's where you're from. If you know you're going to the Hoosiers just don't throw that last line in your goodbye post.
Bro Caboose ... totally agree.Interesting

I think that rule normally applies to kids on a student visa that are only here to go to school, so they can’t work in general, including collect NILSeeing Ugonna is from Nigeria, does that mean he can’t profit from NIL?

Our wing target will be portaging here soon
I'm okay with giving him 5-9 min every other game. We can schedule his suspensions ahead of time too. That way everyone is on the same page.Curbelo should come back. Love the way he plays. I don't think he's in the portal though.
Damascus was a booty ball outlier, he could scoop, hit the fade away, use the backboard cue ball shot, hit the three, and the behind the backboard jumper. Don’t think you will find another booty baller with those multiple skills.I know, I couldn't resist.
To just put a very generalized point on it though, Humrichous is not a creator, he's not a distributor, he's not a guy you want the ball in the hands of all the time.
He's a dangerous weapon standing in the corner, and that threat opens up the floor for others to create.
Ty does like to post up, but if the shot isn't initially there for him it all goes awry.
Guys, booty ball was not a Brad Underwood thing, it's not a system Illinois is building towards, it's not a secret to unlock offensive performance, it was a solution to make the best of Marcus Domask's particular skills on a 5-out team with no real point guard.
Posting up a guard can always be a stealth weapon, especially against certain matchups, but running your whole offense through that action is a terrible idea unless you stumble into a weird set of player characteristics as we did last year.
To synthesize both of the above responses, we know very little about next year's team, but the one thing we can be sure of is the offense will be initiated by and run through Kylan Boswell, the 5-star starter for Pac12 champion Arizona. Our experiments with non-PG basketball are over for the time being.
Getting Onyenso locked down will help with other pieces- hope OA makes this a quick process and we get him
Here we go, yall
That might be a tad overambitious, but Boswell, Jones and Onyenso would be no freakin joke of a portal class. Reloading.Feels like we are about to become preseason top 5.
Won’t have my support for taking the identical role on an in conference rival. Happy for him here but that’s the end of that
bummer. but LG gave us everything he had for 3 years and should have our support regardless of where he ends up
Rick Mount! I'm in.I see Humrichious being a version of Rienk Mast with better shooting and worse defense. Solid pickup overall though if we got him.
Incidentally, David Jones is a Dominican citizen and it’s the same situation for him.Good question. It’s a matter of his visa status.
He moved to the US in January 2021 to play high school basketball, it’s possible he’s gotten a green card in that time?
But if he’s on a student visa he’s stuck in the same boat as Zach Edey who also played a year of HS ball in the US.
I wouldn’t worry about that. Purdue found a way with Edey.Seeing Ugonna is from Nigeria, does that mean he can’t profit from NIL?
