I think Tilmon should just go to Missouri if he wants. Playing against a really good big in practice might make him better. I wonder if the dad is gonna suddenly get a nice new job with a pay raise lol. Illini will be alright without him. The long term matters more than any one recruit. I think we should as a fan base move on to other transfer and recruits of interest. The team seems to have done that well.
The best thing for long-term success in college b-ball is short-term success. BU might be forgiven one bad season. Two bad seasons to start his tenure likely not. Our need for PF/Cs right now is acute to put it mildly.
