    Kanon Catchings vs Egor Demin is a heck of a matchup on paper. I'm sure NBA scouts would love to see it.

    On the final day of the B1G conference season, Goode will drain a buzzer beater 3 to beat whatever team is competing for the regular season championship with us (maybe USC?), clinching the title for the Illinois. The prophecy has spoken.

    It would be incredibly satisfying to see Daddy Brad slow play everything, giving teams like Indiana and Michigan hope that they will be better than us, but then we wind up with a loaded transfer class that puts us as undisputed B1G favorites. Jones and Humrichous would be the perfect start...

    Any rumors on what (if any) non-con tourney we will be in? A matchup with West Virginia would be pretty entertaining for obvious reasons.

    So basically a Quincy replacement? Hopefully better/more consistent shooting but worse defender and rebounder?

    Didn't watch him or Memphis at all this past season. His 3pt % took a massive jump, from 29% to 38%. That was the big question mark against him. Could the argument be made that he's better than Storr? Genuine question since I didn't watched any Memphis games.

    I find it very intriguing we haven't heard many names for the mystery transfer 5, but insiders have confirmed we will be getting one. Makes me think we are trying to keep things under wraps because.... A) It's a lower profile guy that we don't want others teams gaining interest in. A "diamond...

    Sounds good to me! And if most of the roles are already set, Brad can go big name hunting for new additions next off season to compliment Fears. AJ Dybantsa come on down?

    Is Xavier Booker still planning on hitting the portal? And would we pursue? Thought I heard rumors during the season that he was unhappy.
