I think his reference was to total enrollment not percentage of enrollment, which is correct. The U of I has the second largest.
Yesssss.....we're #2!I think his reference was to total enrollment not percentage of enrollment, which is correct. The U of I has the second largest.

Better get used to it. Illinois has the second largest international enrollment among public universities in the US. It's only fitting that the basketball team reflect that.
Maybe someone can let you use their beach house for a week!Im getting money!?
LOL. Man I wish.Maybe someone can let you use their beach house for a week!

I am bad at words though.Didn't you know you can build a career selling information about high-schoolers' college choices under the guise of respectability of 247 or Rivals?
You mean you don't not talk good.I am bad at words though.
It's not just the international players' names though. How many announcers had problems with Meyers Leonard?Oh I’ve got no problem where they come from. I just want guys that can contribute on the court. I think it’s comical listening to some of the announcers struggle with names because they clearly haven’t done homework before a game. See: Bezhanishvili, Vesel when he was here, Dosunmu, Kofi....
You mean Miles? The funny thing is his wife's name is Elle, but it's pronounced "Ellie," so I guess it runs in the family. I wonder how often they get called Miles and "El."It's not just the international players' names though. How many announcers had problems with Meyers Leonard?
Doesn't stop many from trying...I am bad at words though.

As with Ayo, how we feel about our current class is very heavily dependent on landing one kid (not exactly a penetrating observation). It will be nice to get to a point where we're not so reliant on landing one kid.
I think we are moving in that direction. Groce epitomied the all in on one recruit. BU seems to have better plan B-Z. Giorgi was probably our 10th option at big. Verdonk also looks and sounds like a gem. It would be nice to start landing multiple first choice players.
