Was surprised to see that Kris Murray from Iowa got an invite to the NBA Combine, then recently turned the invitation down. Iowa now just another one of probably 9 teams (same teams as last year) with a chance for the very top tier of the Big Ten in 2022-23 season. You can never count Wisconsin out, and Rutgers may possibly return Ron Harper Jr and Caleb McConnell.

True. In addition, Caleb Houstan not on list of G League Elite Camp or NBA Combine, so he'll likely be back. Reports are that Diabate will be back since he is not high in the second round for any mock draft. Michigan and Indiana are early season favorites ... so far ... my two least fav teams.

If Howard doesn't avoid handshake lines for a good chunk of the season, Michigan should make a big leap...But I think we'll still sweep them if Howard is on the bench. .

Yep, Augie was and is one of the most under-appreciated Illini of all-time, including by the Illinois fanbase.

#1 player in Big 10 in terms of career win-shares since 1995, and second place isn't particularly close. Big 10 career win-share link

Agree MD..
Thanks for the win-share link. Histogram bears you out: Augie is alone at the top in his own bucket.

Houstan is staying in draft. Diabate likely too.

Win shares are slightly flawed though in that the more wins you have and the better supporting cast you have, the more likely you are to rack up win shares.
