Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

This is an absolute gem.Ben and Booth with their NIL haul next year:
Will need a ladder!
Yes, he will depend on Riley. If Will leaves I think we have a legit shot at Costanza and in the 25 class
So that's Constanza, Sarr, and the plan B guy plus returners?
Costanza, Sarr, transfer pg, return 5-6 rotation guys, and rotation big would be the ideal offseason

Can any of the new players shoot in this hypothetical? Illinois desperately needs shooters.
They are going to want to get a pg that can really shoot it
Lets get Luigi, another legitimate Big to complement Rez and Tomi, if they stick around. WOW! I would love to see those High -Low plays. Still works for B. Self, it can work for B.U.
Kylan wasn't bad the last 2 years at 37 n 39%...I dunno what's happening this year. I'd love around 40% from our guards.
Luigi is 2 years from now.
Why are you so sure? Also, if that is the case, is that also true for UK and BYU? I mean why not come, draw NIL, at least practice, and see what happens?
Dame Sarr would be an incredible add for next year - keeping the talent pipeline going. For those that haven’t made the connection Sarr and Luigi played on the same U18 Italy FIBA team last summer - they played KJ and Lithuania- Luigi had 17 6 3 and 3 that game. Plus KJ obviously played with Sarr on the FC Barcelona U18 team last year when Sarr led them in scoring. Lots of familiarity there that hopefully goes in our favor
Derek Piper wrote that Luigi is looking at that time frame, and that the staff wants one more year of Tomi. Luigi would not be coming here to back up Tomi and Morez at the center.
He’s going to prep school next year
I just wish he made more of his layups

Is there a PG like that who won't be Pro next year?
Sounds like a unicorn. An expensive unicorn
What roles do you see the two incoming Freshmen playing? Reads like "none?" Rotational? Redshirt? Creaned?
brads better with older rosters, You get DGL boswell morez white(?) and tomi back. possibly riley. U think they go 2 freshman over portal vets?
I think you still have to qualify academically… that’s still a thing, right?
Nothing significant. I really like both long term, think they could maybe get spot minutes
