    Jakstys might as well be perceived as not here because, redshirt or not, he's not playable as a freshman. Two scholarships open is effectively leaving three scholarships open. One or two injuries, with a team well constructed with complementary parts, could be problematic. I would be more than...

    Missed the news yesterday. Great get and fills lots of gaps. OA already paying off. So what's our projection for filling the remaining spots? Wing (Starter - Difference Maker) Big (Banger - Rebounder - Limited Minutes) PG (Traditional Lead Guard - Limited Minutes)

    2023 Illinois Defense TDs allowed in first half: 24 TDs allowed in second half: 18 Turnovers were an issue, especially were unfortunate with turnover luck on fumbles creating immediate points.

    He made a massive leap this year. eFG% above 50%, his offensive/defensive splits are pretty elite last year (not so much before then), good rebounder for his size.

    I'm not worried, but if you gave me a choice to have Dainja back on the roster right now, it's an easy choice. The roster needs starters and bench players, so the team role is a moot question (from a fan's perspective).

    Went from folks prognosticating that Illinois could and might land the majority of the top transfer options, with specific names being mentioned, just a week ago.
