Good shooter. Below average at just about everything else
Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

So is he only a take if Underwood is desperate to land some shooters? Or maybe he's slow-playing him until he sees who he can land via the transfer portal.

Similar to Plummer?
Saw highlights of a kid on DGN, just lighting up Kenwood. Any info on him? Kid looks like a great shooter.. Stanton?
Plummer a better 3 lever scorer than people realize
I should say those are just my thoughts. Brad and Geoff may really like him.
Have we ever been more desperate for shooting than we are now?
Better shot selection would help his 3-pt shooting % a lot. I don't think his form is that bad. It's just that a lot of his attempts are bad attempts.
Dropping the upfake might help some....
In the first half, desperate for every aspect of the game.
In recent 2nd halves, I think, we have been way above average in most games.
because the ACC was awful this year - Lville, GTech, ND, BC, FSU = Average NET of 211
good ACC teams get nearly 6-10 bye games
Duke's best wins are NET 22, 37, 49
Their NET is higher than ours since their 10 Q4 wins are average 231 NET but our 7 Q4 wins are average 320
A good predictive analytical formula should give little distinction between 200 and 300 NET
Their Q1-Q wins are on average 20 lower than ours
Our only Q2 loss is away 56 to theirs is away 91
I'll honestly be ecstatic if either comes back since I assumed both gone
Oh man, if TSJ comes back, that's huge.

I really understand the excitement of having Shannon come back…I really, really do…but I don't understand why anyone wouldn’t be as equally excited to have Hawkins back…I really, really don’t. @pruman91 voice
Hawkins does so many good things on the court and his versatility is a great asset.

Both are great players. Shannon however would be a top 5-10 player in college basketball next year though. 2nd year here, an offseason to improve the three a bit more, etc
Would actually rather have Coleman back, pretty clearly the more important player to the team overall, so at the very least I’d drop the “clearly.”
Of course, would be ecstatic to have either return.
Heard he would wake up at 419 am next year....I still suggest 420
420....another nod to pru
and to improve his handles and right hand
IHSA website posted the Final 4 team's stats.
Certa is scoring 26.5 ppg, 5.2 rpg, 2.4 apg, 48% FG, 36.3% 3 pt, 78.3% FT (little disappointed in the 3 pt%)
Phoenix Gill 11.1 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 2,7 ppg, 50.8% FG, 35% 3 pt, 76.2% FT
A guy brought up on here in the past in passing, Ethan Kizer from Metamora is getting 13.9 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 2.3 apg, 45.2% FG, 40.5% 3 pt, 67.1% FT. Not saying we should have recruited him, but Metamora is a very balanced team with 4 starters averaging 10 ppg or more. I am saying that this guy is also a 6'6" athletic player that should have been recruited harder by Illinois State and Bradley. He's going to South Alabama.

I’d love to find someone like Miller Kopp.
His numbers are consistent and don’t lie. The shot is flat and something need to change. Good shooters don’t have those numbers and explain shooting in the 60s from the line for two seasons. I am concerned with him at the line in close games for a good reason, Hawk stuggles. His shot looks pretty flat comeoated to most good shooters. I do think he can improve some with hard work either here or elsewhere. I don’t think that will be on an NB A roster and with NIL $$ why not recruit him to stay another year
