Insurance more like it due to the injury problems.We are going after another guard…this is more of a depth piece.
Curbelo back?? Any traction?Insurance more like it due to the injury problems.
I’d take him in a heartbeat.Curbelo back?? Any traction?
What do you mean still? What we tried to do last year was a train wreck. And the tracks haven't been fixed not getting a serviceable PG.We still running the spread offense next year? Lol
NoCurbelo back?? Any traction?
whyI’d take him in a heartbeat.
He’s got a higher ceiling than anyone else we are gonna land right now. He doesn’t require a lot of shots. And honestly… for the storylines. If we are gonna be mid at least be interesting.No
why
And perhaps it helps heal the old wound now with Simeon. Also a longer term view when and if a 1 year rental is gone.It says he could have 3 years of eligibility left so its not all bad. We still need another roster spot to open up to fix this year's problem.
You would seriously consider him as an addition after his last season here AND what we saw at St. Johns? Like, for real for real?He’s got a higher ceiling than anyone else we are gonna land right now. He doesn’t require a lot of shots. And honestly… for the storylines. If we are gonna be mid at least be interesting.
Remember when real estate appraisers worked that way? That was fun.If team x offers player y $400k, then player y's market value is $400k.
Williams was likely going to come regardless of what RayJ was doing...all I will say for now. Like I said, we aren't done.
Do you feel like he's not trying to address the PG issue? How is he being stubborn?At some point we have to question if brad is too stubborn for his own good. How can he have watched that team last year and ended up in the same exact spot? He’s not putting his players in the best position to succeed. His players aren’t going to the NBA. He’s not winning in march. At some point… change it up man.

I would not take him for many reasons.No
why
Illini fans deserved being pulled out of the gutter, but I think we now deserve fighting for National Championships as we are one of the premier programs in college basketball history. I have a hard time believing that will happen now with BU as our head coach.
I went to Oklahoma St., loved Ice. Wish he would've followed BU instead of going to ohio st. Would be thrilled with Williams being comped to Ice.Williams gives me Isaac Likekele vibes. I would have welcomed that to last years team in a heartbeat.
I will believe he went through a complete physical before they took his commitment .Additionally, medical advances have been significant in the past 30 years.
It sounds like we offered Dennis the moon and heartily picked .Baylor. How can you blame Underwood. I am pretty sure he is trying every thing he can to get a point guard. There is no one on this forum who actually knows ( besides the insiders) who they are after. So quit badgering the coach.At some point we have to question if brad is too stubborn for his own good.

I think the staff may see him as preferable to Moretti, not Harmon.Sounds like we are adding Williams as a depth piece and are looking to add another guard, which means we will need to run someone off.
Most likely candidate seems to be Harmon as most other guys are already with the team. Absent a transcript or some other issue which is preventing Harmon from coming, can someone explain to me how Williams is an upgrade from Harmon? I get that Williams has up to 3 years of eligibility remaining but he needs a waiver to play this year and highly likely he needs at least another year to get back anywhere close to 100% anyway. All our roster moves thus far have screamed win now. And if we are in win now mode I don’t see any way that Williams is preferable to Harmon.
Ok, given how well the 15 years prior to Brad getting here went....who do you suggest would win that one more game in the tournament, so that is winning multiple Big Ten Championships, having multiple NCAA Tournament appearances won't be continually overlooked?I've defended BU for years, and I think rightfully so because he pulled us out of the gutter. At this point though, it feels like his ceiling as a coach was the Ayo/Kofi team that lost to Loyola. We just seem to be missing one key piece every year and every year we all just say, including him at times, if we just had this ONE piece. I thought that if TSJ and Coleman came back, and if we got a good PG from the portal, BU could maybe bust through that ceiling finally this year. That seems very unlikely to happen at this point barring something crazy (please for the love of god let us somehow get Tyger).

because we didnt get a guy from Toledo? I'm not saying he's for sure the answer but lets just see how the season goes and stop proclaiming this season over before it started when we literally just brought back two very important piecesI've defended BU for years, and I think rightfully so because he pulled us out of the gutter.
