NBA even as a 2nd or 3rd round pick?
I must say there is more of a case for Ayo to return now than there was a couple of days ago. Still think he goes pro but...
I feel like its a done deal. It is unfortunate that the tournament is not going to happen, but the way he left the floor during that last game is telling. Waving at the crowd and taking it in like its the last time. I felt all along that baring an unforeseen circumstance that he was gone after this year. This stoppage of play could qualify as an unforeseen circumstance. When Ayo came initially he came to start, take Ayo out of that sentence and add Miller. He is coming to play major minutes from the start. He is also coming to start.Far from a done deal like I said a couple of days ago. Stage to improve his stock was taken out from under him.
Really feel for him and the rest of those kids that needed that little boost that could've been worth millions.
The staff is in on a couple quality grad transfers. We’re going to be so deep next year I’m not sure there is going to be room for Miller to start.I feel like its a done deal.

Are Hamlin and Tevian still part of the plan moving forward as of now?The staff is in on a couple quality grad transfers. We’re going to be so deep next year I’m not sure there is going to be room for Miller to start.
I am interested in these grad transfers. Its gonna take some experienced, talented guys to bench him. At the end of the year the team had success with the 4 guards starting. Its possible they go the same route next season. Trent, Curbelo, Miller, Griffin and Williams are 5 guards. Id bench Williams, but he is a helluva glue guy and defender. If he is hitting 2 threes a game or give me a three and a layup and im ecstatic. Looking forward to next year and devastated that this year is over.The staff is in on a couple quality grad transfers.

How on earth are we going to continue to add grad transfers? I believe what you are saying; I just don't see many quality guys coming here as grad transfers due to our quality depth.The staff is in on a couple quality grad transfers.

I really wanna hear Bryce Aiken's name. averaged 22 ppg at Harvard his junior year. Illinois made his final 6 before he committed to Harvard and hes from NJ, so hoping Antigua might have a connection there.I am interested in these grad transfers.

Like from reading Illinois loyalty.As the season ended, I believed it was the last time Ayo played in Champaign. I expected Ayo to showcase his skills in the NCAA tournament as a springboard into the NBA. Without the tourney, I don't know anymore. He'll get some honest, unbiased feedback before making a decision. I see Ayo making the right decision for his future, whether it's staying or going based on the input he gets.

I’m sure there is more talk out there because there always is......but this board is literally the only place I have seen/heard that is predicting Ayo to return.I must say there is more of a case for Ayo to return now than there was a couple of days ago. Still think he goes pro but...
The majority opinion is he will go.

I don’t need anyone to point out more stories, I’m just saying don’t let yourself get caught up in this. The majority opinion is he will go.
The best thing for Tev would be a fresh start somewhere else. I’m not sure on HamlinAre Hamlin and Tevian still part of the plan moving forward as of now?
The need for a 6’6-6’9 kid that can make threes is huge....How on earth are we going to continue to add grad transfers? I believe what you are saying; I just don't see many quality guys coming here as grad transfers due to our quality depth.

Seth Towns from Harvard seems to fit that bill to a tee, but recent story says he has his eyes elsewhere:The need for a 6’6-6’9 kid that can make threes is huge....
I could know for sure without being Ayo’s family if I know the correct peopleI would tend to agree with you more than disagree, but unless you're Ayo's family, you simply don't know for sure. If you are for sure, then you should follow it up with your supported reasons.
Grandison checks a lot of boxes.
I’m not going to say names but they are in a a couple high major players....we will see how COVID plays a role in this since the NCAA just announced no recruiting on or off campus.Seth Towns from Harvard seems to fit that bill to a tee, but recent story says he has his eyes elsewhere:
