Good for you itās obvious the kid doesnāt want to be at Illinois. Thereās no ānarrativeā. Heās in the transfer portal.
"Obvious" would be the very last word I would use to describe what's going on with AM.

Fair enough, but if putting his name in the transfer portal means it's obvious he doesn't want to be here, then pulling his name from the portal and returning would mean it's obvious he does want to be here. Fair's fair. In which case, of course we'd want him to return.Good for you itās obvious the kid doesnāt want to be at Illinois. Thereās no ānarrativeā. Heās in the transfer portal.
Yes. But a student on campus can elect to not be on campus I believe. That's what is happening hereYes you can choose not to return to campus but if you elect to be on campus you must follow testing protocol. One of his friends was expelled from schoool for not following protocols and had to petition for re-admission.
This part is no longer true. Now, even if you're on campus, you only need to show a negative test to enter campus buildings. If you're just taking all online classes from your apartment, you might never need to get tested.Yes you can choose not to return to campus but if you elect to be on campus you must follow testing protocol.
I wonder what the positivity rate has been the last few weeks since the end of the season across the nation for these basketball players and team personnel that have bottled up over the last year. Just curious.This part is no longer true. Now, even if you're on campus, you only need to show a negative test to enter campus buildings.

There's no testing protocol noncompliance issue with Miller hanging out in Miami for a few days. Just like there's no issue with Curbelo going to Puerto Rico, Kofi to Jamaica, or Da'Monte to Peoria. Upon return to campus, they'll need one to get into Ubben, but, until then, they're in compliance.
Umm Giorgi literally remained sitting and doesn't look like his expression changed at all. I don't think anyone would ever say that Giorgi was uninterested.
.....and we want this kid back?
I donāt know that it ever got out who, but we know there were at least several players who tested positive over the summer and probably still have good immunity. With vaccine available to all, I would certainly think the athletic dept would have vaccine lined up for any players wanting it.This part is no longer true.

I think it was "this week" sometime.It's quiet in here after a supposed meeting between player and coaches this weekend. I'll take that as a good thing with the staff's history of locking down (re)recruitments quietly.
Miller is back most likely.Has to at least indicate Miller to UK isnāt yet a done deal, right?
fingers crossed, but would not be surprised to hear something in the next week. meeting with staff this week so we will see how that goesI swear I just saw a suggested Instagram post about Kentucky leading for Miller, and when I tried to click on the comments and the creatorās previous posts, it was deleted.
Iāll choose to take this as encouraging.
That's a smart call. Kentucky brings in Jaden Hardy and/or another elite guard, and where does that leave Miller? Scraps and /or the bench.Miller is back most likely.
What makes you say this?Miller is back most likely.
He's meeting the staff this week. He wouldn't if he had already moved on. The fact that he is meeting means he has realized that UIUC is his best bet. BU showed him his place when BU gave that 2 liner shrug reply on his views about AM leaving.What makes you say this?
Nunn was much better Frosh/Soph than AM is/was.....not even close , IMHO
They may but they are still recruiting over him.I swear I just saw a suggested Instagram post about Kentucky leading for Miller, and when I tried to click on the comments and the creatorās previous posts, it was deleted.

Fair enough, but you could see that Nunn had NBA talent , which he is now averaging 13.5/game.....We'll see if AM even makes it.....like I said , though, I stand corrected.Well that's not true.
Offensively, Adam Miller was worth 1.4 points over replacement player at that usage level. Kendrick Nunn was worth 1.3 as a freshman.
And Miller was every bit as good defensively as Nunn was as a freshman.
Do you think AM is destined to be a 13.5 pts/game NBA player? I sure don't.AM hasnāt been a Soph yet.
That's a fair question. Another fair question is whether KNunn looked like a 13.5 pts/g NBA player after his freshman year. Players can develop a lot at the college level.Do you think AM is destined to be a 13.5 pts/game NBA player? I sure don't.
