I’d be quite surprised if we don’t land the remainder of the Meanstreets “Big 3”

So, the we've cooled on Brown report was a red herring, right?

 

[Godard]

He seemed to contribute just fine @ 30-min tick in March, and did so on both ends IIRC.

To add to this, thought he did a pretty good job showing he can step up at key moments in last five seconds against Chattanooga:

That one I'm iffy on too. We have a good shot but he is not as high on Illinois as Nojus

From what I’ve heard, yes

Would you say the staff has cooled on on Asa Thomas in response to the interest and rise of Nojus? (well aware Asa is a ‘23 and Nojus a ‘24)

Thomas has always been a secondary option. Think we’re recruiting at a level where he’s very much an afterthought.

Highly, highly doubt that Grandison ever felt he'd be drafted.

As to transferring, he doesn't need a waiver (grad transfer). My 2 cents: if minutes are key, he's leaving.

If grandi is ok with going back to his 15 minutes a game like he did in 20-21. it doesn’t help him with his professional career but he could be a good leader on a special team

Anderson said what he said about Dain. Please explain what you think was out of context.

In his interview with Ked, what was said was Dain has as good a chance as anyone on the roster at being one and done! And not that he is one and done or that he is the most likely.

One and done is essentially limited to Dain and the freshman

Uh, yeah!!

Good catch Godard.

To my Illini brothers and sisters who have served and to those with family that have served, Thank You on this Memorial Day.

There is no home of the free without the brave.

Michael Henn would add the depth if Nance stays in the draft. Would be comfortable with the roster at that point and save the last scholarship. We have a walkon third PG that has some talent.
