Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

[bleedorange and blue]

I like Dainja, especially when he decides to play defense. I just hope and pray that dude goes out of the Big Ten. I really don't want to watch him cook us next year.

I could see him going to Minnesota, wouldn't like it but it wouldn't surprise me

At no time in his 3 years here was Kofi sub 50%.

He was right around 55% which is pretty close to 47% is it not? Sophomore yr. I didn’t say he was sub 50%. I just alluded that be wasn’t very good either. This was basically Dains 2nd yr.

If they wouldn't make those promises to Howard, why would they make them for May?

Probably because they just dealt with Howard.

I’m pretty sure Coleman said he was done. During the postgame interviews. I would be surprised if he ran it back without Terrence

I think the issue is what was shared earlier in the thread re: his knee. If he goes through the draft process and teams balk at that, he may decide it's worth it to get it repaired and knock the rust off with a fifth year.

I don’t want Dainja to go to Purdue. That’s my fear

 

[ILLFAN67]

Coleman is not coming back. Good luck to him in his pro career. Domask would be awesome get with a medical redshirt yr. He’s just needs a great scoring running mate.

The only 100% guarantees are death and taxes.

Per the Daily Illini (circa 1979 just before the Magic Johnson game) --- and "Rob Judson at the FT Line."

Luke’s graduated and may be thinking Harvard for his Masters!

And his (awesome) dad’s reply to his tweet

Ah, yes... the marital portal.

In my case it would be the marital couch portal

Wait, what did his dad say? I must've missed it in the previous 19 pages somewhere

 

[DeonThomas]

He's kinda got a Robert Plant thing going with his hair.

 

[Dr Copejam]

Coleman could possibly have to get something done on his knee which would make coming back to Illinois a lot more likely

You answered my question. I was wondering if the knee would come into play.

 

[zentrails]

If they wouldn't make those promises to Howard, why would they make them for May?

I think the argument is that May wouldn't have gone there without those promises.

Dain can easily be a 14 & 8 guy at pretty much any Power 5 school. His #’s per minute played this year easily transfers if you actually played him more than 5 minutes a game. He should have played much more this year in my opinion.

More you play could lead to more turnovers ,fouls,missed FT's.I love Dain as well,not worth NIL investment as starter.

There was a tweet about Coleman being done at Illinois, and his dad replied with "".

This same account also said Brad met with USC officials in Boston

 

[The Sprouting Divot]

If they wouldn't make those promises to Howard, why would they make them for May?

Because they wanted Howard to leave, and May to come.

PSA: It’s that time of year when the fake accounts release fake recruiting / transfer news. Be careful what you trust
