Wait! This has to be fake. I don’t know what Indy looks like but neither of these guys even remotely resembles Tyler.
Seriously? They sit around on the golf course making up fodder for us to talk about. One is Dan's accountant, the other his lawyer. Everybody gets a piece of the fodder pie that way!
Yup. We’re just really really good guessers. Lol
YOU KILLED TYGER???
Potential Bigs/Rim Protecters to target for the Illini. Big Hunter Dick from Michigan, Rienk mast from Bradley, Moussa Cisse from Okla St, Jesse Edwards from Cuse, Makhel Mitchell from Arkansas, Robbie Beran from Northewestern, Daniel Batcho from Texas Tech, Quentin Millora-Brown from Vandy, Qudus Wahab from Georgetown, Olivier Nakamwa from Tennessee, Jamarion Sharp from Western Kentucky, Kadin Shedrick from Virginia, Dishon Jackson from Wash State

The question with Derrick Rose isn't with him getting paid, because, like, duh.
The question is how they faked his SAT. Like it's been a throwaway line in things that John Calipari arranged for someone to take Rose's SAT for him. Uh...how?
That's quite a bit harder to fool than the Barney Fife's down at NCAA enforcement.
I guess we’re at a point where we just have to root for our wealthy hired guns over the other school’s wealthy hired guns. “When I was a kid playing basketball, I would pretend the clock was counting down and I made the game winning basket at the buzzer for … the college whose alums paid me the most.”
0440 is right. We have the money.
Edit: from what I heard we were trying to get for TJ to stay, we can compete with pretty much anyone.

Doesn't matter whether the market is legal or illegal, the game is about logistics.
Ive been MIA for a few weeks, so I apologize in advance because I know that this question has been answered. Why did Epps transfer out? Homesick? Sick of Brad? I saw Brad in his face a few times this past season.What if I’m in the central time zone today …
Is it? I mean, look at the Lori Laughlin scandal at USC. All it takes is one well-placed person with willingness to go along with a scheme.

Hate to be that guy but is there a scenario in which we don’t land Tyger or RayJ?
What am I missing around RayJ Dennis? His announcement seemed pretty indicative that he’s looking to go the NBA Draft route, but I know things can change with feedback. Do we have any indication he’d be interested other than he liked 2 tweets? I know he’s from Illinois. Have we been in contact? I may have missed something on here, so apologies if that’s the case. Just seems like there’s a lot more smoke around the potential with Tyger.
Yes (very small), but there's not a scenario where we don't land a stud point guard. We are going to have maybe the best sell of any teams in the country for a stud point guard

There's a scenario in which we don't land either of them and both TSJ and CoHawk go pro.
The good news is we have a Scrooge McDuck swimming pool full of NIL cash to play with if that happens.
That's what happened last year. Kofi should have taken our offer. He didn't, such is life, all the best to him. We rebounded by walking into the market and buying Shannon and Mayer, two of the top guys available.
We are a big market player here.
Hey, @Indy Illini Fan and @illini0440, I’m not paying you both. Pick a shift and stick with it. Everybody gets paid 12 hours a day, no more.
I prefer whichever one can handle Brad's yelling. /s
Hey now… there’s plenty of insider NIL money to go around. We should want to build an insider super team.
Oh great! Now Indy’s probably headed to the insider transfer portal. Me and my big mouth.
