    IDK, I like seeing all the insiders post. They are appreciated and valued a lot more than us other " nothing better to do Illini loving hacks". With that said as an Illini loving hack! Let's ink Lathon today and get another key add. I've been watching a lot of "swing and a miss" chasing the...

    Colman probably helped me share all my emotions more than any Illini over the past 4 years. I'll call it living the good life of fan. Again this is over 4 years for all these emotions "Get him out" "Put him in" "Play Defense" "Nice Block" "Damn he can handle the ball" "What is he doing...

    This NIL era seems to be great for the 18-22 year old ballers! Used to be there was only about 60-70 high paying positions available every year (NBA). Now there is 10 fold the number of high paying positions. The bidding wars are going to get more insane every year. I hope we can prove we are...

    I'm not an insider, but I think with this program Ty will have to prove it in practice every year, if not every game. No one is guarantied at start. With that said, Ty will start next year because he'll earn it. I also think he'll develop his shot.

    I agree But, I'd go in this order of dislike for basket ball. 1) Indiana 2) Iowa 3) Michigan ..... then Ohio State in all sports.

    TSJ Thread

    I hate all this happened to TSJ, but I am happy with the way he and the U of I dealt with the situation. It ain't over and media can't ever take away damage done. I am just glad this came out prior to the NBA draft. Maybe it will help teams understand the character of TSJ, and help him get paid...

    Remember the good ol' days You knew who was back and how many years each player had left. Then you could do a little research on the incoming class and how they could fill the voids.

    Let's remember we just had an elite 8 team made mostly from transfers. Man it was a blast to watch. I do trust BU and staff and expect great things again. With that said, Indy - who do you expect will be our 5? I will miss Dain & Colman, and don't see who can fill those "big" shoes. Any...

    Hope he does well, but I never liked seeing him check in the game. IMO, not a power 5 player.

    Honestly, I trust the program and the staff (insiders). But as a 50+ year fan and somewhat of a smart guy, I just worry more about the 5. We have the players to be an upper tier B10 team, and the coaching staff to maximize potential. If Dain would have stayed, I could have enjoyed the off...

    We will absolutely put a great team on the floor. We've had some leave, .... and we have had some commit! We are up a little as of tonight, as far as talent. I know 12 out of 14 teams last year wish they had what we have. There is a bunch paying $$ to be like us, but they aren't. It ain't...
