Same guy who just put up 17 on Gonzaga and is playing 35 minutes a game.

Just a quick google search says he's committed to South Alabama, I think. Doesn't seem like a guy who is committed to South Alabama is a guy good enough to play at Illinois.

I don't think he's the best player on his high school team. But he is the best in terms of size and athleticism that makes him attractive to colleges. I figured he'd end up at Bradley, maybe Illinois State, but it sounds like the MVC level schools backed off, which is why he ended up at South Alabama.

I hope we are recruiting a true point guard for next year, or will be scouring the portal for one. Trying to play combo guards as lead guards is a risky business and has gotten the Illini into more trouble. Even if Skyy comes back (which I highly doubt) he isn't suited for the point.
I love the guards that they have now but they are all off-guards. Even the guy they have coming in is not dynamic enough to lead a Big Ten team right away. We need help at the Point!

Not sure he's going to be ready to play as a freshman, but isn't DGL a true point guard?
Definitely going to be looking for a guard in the Portal I would think. Maybe a mid-major guy.

Must have missed it. Did Nojus verbal somewhere?

Didn't expect this one. I've seen his name floated around here, and familiar with his brother's success at TTU, just didn't think there was serious interest both ways.
