Oh great. So either he wants to play somewhere close to home, or the staff wants to move forward with the group here and incoming recruits?
I suppose this means Trent will drop 30 on us in next years second round tourney game. Because Sister Mary Jean. And God. Apparently.
I get the emotion today. I get it.
Yeah, that’s exactly what I was saying
Beat me to it! Orange and blue

Interesting he communicated that the day his future school was eliminated
is he looking to start? i doubt he’d want to come off the bench and belo and miller will start infront of them. Unless we start 3 guards under 6’4Beat me to it! Orange and blue
Belo, Burnett, and Miller would all start without issue, don’t you think?
Fortunately for Trent he makes his own decisions. Maybe he goes to Europe and maybe he plays for a school in Florida.

He says, about a team that started 3+ guards this entire season.

That would be such a bummer
yea maybe without kofi rim blocker it could be a liability on defense and getting boards though

Can someone light up the bat signal to get illini0440 or Indy Illini Fan to give us some scoop on this?
I think those three would be dynamite. The only issue is tyty & whether he commits before April 9 & there are still alot on Hutcherson supporters. I have to remember who I was talking to & as hard as it is to believe there are people who believe Hutcherson would have started on the team THIS YEAR

Hold up, three guards aside from Belo/Miller/Burnett? So like TyTy + Podz + ______? That would be freakin incredible.
It isn't for Baylor! They seem to do pretty well!
My two bits... best case in my book would be Kofi coming back for one more season to pair up with Curbelo. We have ample depth at guard, and I'm excited to see what Curbelo can achieve when Brad tosses him the keys to the Ferrari. I imagine it will look like the two parking lot attendants in Ferris Bueller... Adam Miller looks primed to fill the Trent Frazier role. Hutcherson and Melendez could both be new scoring options. Goode an instant offense guy off the bench...
That said, the sting of losing was greater this year knowing what coulda shoulda mighta been.

I think with the experience our young guys now have of the tourney we might be better next year. I said in a different thread that Ace and Belo will be the leaders in keeping up the standard. Goode brings elite shooting and Hawkins will hopefully make the jump to the player we hope we would be.
If Kofi comes back we should be top 4 in the big ten, if he doesn't then top 6-7 is probably where we will fall.
yes but they’re guards all are elite very talented defenders. and they’re still not top 30 on defense
Not trying to discredit anyone here, but Trent transferring to another school makes 0 sense. If anything, I see him leaving to get paid. Not trying to claim to be an insider, but I'm speaking as someone who's hung out with him several times. I don't see it. If it happens, I'll eat crow, but someone saying this the same day we lost just seems even more far-fetched to me.
What I hope for this off-season is that Belo learns to not try to drive through 3 defenders in the middle of the lane. When he is trying to do it there has to be an open man somewhere. The same with Kofi. He will learn to be quicker against a good defeneder. I know it is all a learning process. He will also get stronger and he has to shoot a 1000 shots a day. Looking forward seeing him lead the team next year. Thanks for a great and fun season.
