I talked to a staff member today ... Do NOT be surprised if we over sign by 1 ... They are actively looking into a lot of guys and there's a lot to play out but over signing is on the table ...
And no ... No one would be creaned ... It would be by design ...

I think you are talking about Dior Johnson ?
He's still on table ...
If Wade gets Arkansas job ... That might be where he ends up ...
I thought Michigan had issues with upperclassmen that had not graduated? So Shannon and Love had 3 years of college and probably 1-2 semesters left until graduation. And we got Shannon in by admitting him as a junior with two years left which is why he was not a graduate last year.
Johnell Davis has been in college four years which would be similar to guys they haven’t had an issue with like Nkamhoua
^ We have 3 open right now...I anticipate 4 or 5...And I think we bring in at least 5 more guys (4 at the very least)
Hearing the same ...
All have a great chance to contribute, regardless of who we bring in. This is fantastic news.

But... that's a vegetarian shark.Text back from a certain staff member this morning when I told him a certain guy was entering the portal ... We are the shark ...
I may have asked this before, but how do these transfers deal with working out and continuing to work in their game. Do they still get access to facilities? I’m assuming they are still going to class (assuming they went before). Seems like guys remain friends even after they transfer away…so I’m just curious. I’m assuming their new destination isn’t like “just don’t worry about if touching a ball until classes are over then we will see you then.”

They used to advertise "Free Smells." You should at least stick your head in one of their locations and take advantage.
Yup ... From what I've heard ... We will return 5 ... Bring in 5 or 6 portal guys ... And add the 3 freshman ...
6 portal guys and we would be over signed by 1 ... Which according to the staff meeting this morning ... Very much in play ...

What do you mean by design? What would happen in this scenario?

Or we've just gotten used to non-stop Illini basketball coverage thanks to a second weekend appearance and are trying to fill the void.People asking for updates less than 24 hours after the last bit of info came out are like kids in the car asking "are we there yet". Ya'll need some therapy for that anxiety.
(Besides, I already have a therapist.)
According to my sources ... Davis has not graduated from FAU and is not on track to graduate ...
Which is why there will be admissions issues at Michigan unless Dusty can get them to make an exception ...
NIL can pay their way now ...
See: What Sean Miller did this year at Xavier ... Oversigned by 2 ...
Over sign to allow somebody currently enrolled to stay on scholarship to get a degree? continue working with Fletch/Sanders? Move to a football scholarship?
In the meantime, any update on AJ Storr while I try to hypothesize other scenarios to help make over-signing make sense to me.
The thing is as it turned out if FAU would have been in the Big they probably would have been middle of the pack. He's got to get better than what he had at FAU to come there and play if he wants to contend for a conference title.
Has there been a resolution on Domask’s eligibility waiver request?
