I don’t know what’s worse seeing nothing happen on here or watching the cardinals

Wild that a big man can’t get drafted but can collect $1m-$2m/yr in college.

What would Kofi have earned in this year’s portal?

 

[Brosky]

If we could land Tomislav (sp) I'd be ecstatic but all this waiting around while rumors abound is pins-and-needles stuff, even for an old fart like me.

 

[Emerson Bigguns]

I'd argue Tomislav might be more productive for us.

Higher ceiling, lower floor. We have one of the best big man coaches in the country. I like our chances.

 

[Illini4Christ]

Where does that leave Ugonna

Going to the University of Illinois and being coached by Brad and OA improving his NBA draft stature in two years. Twin towers to the final four.

I missed it, my friend. Could you please give me the gist?

 

[OskieWowWow]

Driven by Edey and Clingan in the finals.

Still a bit nuts to me. Tourney success is still very much guard-driven

Absolutely. But there are way fewer good 7 footers than there are good guards.

Do you think Kofi regrets his decision?

 

[Chuck Nuggets]

Not entirely sure there is a benefit to under the table money anymore…?

Hey @LvilleILL , I am happy to be corrected but had thought I saw that things with TI were done and likely to be announced by end of the weekend at the latest from a post you had made earlier in the week. Are things still on track for that?

 

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Do you think Kofi regrets his decision?

Wasn't the smartest move imo

 

[Illinicpa14]

Do you think Kofi regrets his decision?

I think He made a comment on some interview over the past year watching this teams success to the extent of wish he spent one more year.

Just waiting on an announcement. That’s up to Tomislav

Still insane to me that Kofi could have played this year. Obviously it would have changed a bunch of things would have changed but can you imagine if you plugged Kofi into this elite 8 team.

Imagine Domask initiating with Kofi in the dunker spot while also having Shannon and Coleman.

our offense would have looked very different.

/s?

 

[My2Cents]

@illini0440 ......how do you feel the Spain trip went for Brad?

EDIT: I was asking because you mentioned Demin and vacation
