Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread (November 2019)

Let's hope you're wrong.

TF's quiet start could be for any of a number of reasons that have been stated in multiple threads.

Bottom line, Trent needs to put together a season that gets him at least honorable mention for all big ten. Anything short of that probably means the team is essentially under performing. I'm not currently worried because I think he's going to light it up. but if a senior frazier isn't an all big ten performer, i'll be very disappointed.

Junior Trent Frazier.... Weird huh?

Jack Sikma played at Illinois Weslyan in the same league as Millinkin. He did alright for himself.

Didn't he play against Gobby, Leon Gobcynski

 

[bombayIllini]

We can hope, can't we.

We will have to wait and see where he decides to announce his college and if he commits a day after the signing period, etc, etc, etc.

I am deducting points because he didn't post the actual .gif instead of the photo.....

Sadly my old laptop died and I no longer have that, I'm sure someone does....

Just made it home from Morgan Park opening game. I made it late & left early. Miller didnt score much tonight. I doubt if he had double figures. He did take on the task of guarding DJ Steward though.

Who is the third leg...Ayo/Adam/???

Maybe he meant Brandon Weston since he's also a Morgan Park/MIF guy. Or maybe he didn't mean anyone in particular and we're looking too much into it.

Here is a replay of the full game for those interested.

A.J. Casey when he transfers to MPHS.

It will be interesting to see if he stays with Streets or flips to MIF this summer...

Touche' haha. That's my typed version of thinking aloud....

It actually is the .gif but something is wonky with the copy/paste on my iPad, and it just does a screen grab or something. I’m on vaycay without my laptop.

I promise I will make up those points.

Yes he did, they were fun games to go to. Sikma was much better but Gobby worked his but off to try to compete. One game the Millikin band got a technical for playing 3 Blind Mice on a call no one liked.

How many did DJ score?

According to Sun-Times article he had 22. Miller had 9 but had an issue with his shoes. Weston had 19 and 11.

 

[Ratskin]

They weren’t Nikes, were they?

Yeah, I used to use that one quite a bit....

 

[ChiefIllini]

2021 is an interesting year. Frazier is for sure gone, given Kofi's start I see it difficult to envision him here more than 2 years, and Miller seems like the type of kid whos jumping regardless (barring an injury or terrible play). That team should be absolutely stacked with seniors,I could see the staff trying to grab a few kids in the 75~150 range, and really pushing 2022 hard, given the amount we would potentially lose.

Not sure the last time we've not really had a glaring need, and I get attrition is a real thing and that the cart is about 2 miles ahead of the horse at this point, but our roster construction hasn't been this promising for a very long time. On court results still need to come, but it's hard to really complain about the players BU has brought in and how this roster has been shaped.

About 20. He moved well with the ball, made a nice pass on a fast break. Looked liked the best player on the floor. Weston was not far behind.

I mean, can this really be an excuse? I'd be embarrassed to use that poor of an excuse. Ha.

Tell Zion that shoe trouble is a poor excuse!

I wish you would have left the...but he had issues with his shoes part out.

Bad games are one thing, bad excuses are 10 times worse.
