    Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

    There were rumors that if Coleman or Domask were to come back, we had donors outside of NIL to foot the bill?! Why don't these guys step up to help land players we need through the NIL system? I'm surprised that our basketball NIL pool is very average? We have a huge alumni association.

    St Louis Cardinals 2024

    Matz and a prospect for Glasnow makes sense. The asking price for Dylan Cease seems to be too much for me, even though he is controllable for a longer period of time and cheaper. I hate giving away someone like Gorman, with his potential and an everyday player for someone who plays every 5th...

    St Louis Cardinals 2023

    Most news outlets are insinuating that Tyler O'Neil being given the left field spot when he returns means Dylan Carlson will probably be traded. It sounds like Dylan was pretty dejected in his after the game interview a couple of nights ago. Having said that, if I were the Cardinals, wouldn't...

    Concerning the poster, did you guys notice that the block:illinois:at midfield is put on upside down? Pru will notice!

    St Louis Cardinals 2023

    As of last night, I believe we are sellers. I would even entertain a Goldschmidt trade for highly regarded pitching prospects. He's 35 years old and we will probably only get a couple more years of good Goldy.

    Illinois Football Uniforms

    Okay, here goes. I hate this color combination. Usain Bolt would look slow in this uniform. Even the white shoes don't help! And why are we neon orange? If I was in this locker room it would feel like a rave broke out with only slow guys invited. Plus, it reminds me too much of Syracuse...

    St Louis Cardinals 2023

    I read the last two posts and saw that you guys apparently had some disagreements. I won't go read the other posts, because I'm sure you are both wrong, lol. That's what's great about baseball. The conversations during the season and the hot stove league during the offseason. One thing we...

    Pretty mobile for being 6"6" and I think I saw a Nowitzki step back turn around jumper. She has a chance to be...should I say it...Elite!!!

    The portal is currently closed, but will reopen in May. I'm not sure of the transfer rules and only go by the rumors from this internet machine! It doesn't seem logical, but in this age of NIL, what is logic??

    Rumor is...Jaxson Dart, the incumbent QB and Spencer Sanders will battle for the starting job this spring. The loser will enter the transfer portal. I wouldn't be opposed to hanging around the back alley waiting for some scraps!

    I just can't believe how much the college landscape has changed. It was just 3 or 4 years ago the topic became louder as to the thought college athletes should be compensated in some way. Compensated above their free education, food and housing. Just 3 or 4 years ago, if a coach gave a...
