Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread
- Status
Sure, always a risk, but Kylan’s 3% dropped significantly and he came from a high major. Davis only dropped slightly coming from Mercer. I don’t think Ben’s problems shooting have anything to do with better defenders. He’s had plenty of good looks. Just not having a good shooting year. Unless Brad completely scraps the offense, getting good looks against good defenders isn’t an issue. And I wouldn’t expect Odum to be a high volume shooter from 3 at Illinois. I’d take him in a heart beat.
And against SMC in conf tourney he should have had more than 3. His teammates cost him 3 or 4 assists at least in that game.
How comfortable is Big Z coming off bench?.
I saw him play in 4 games this year (my Beavers are in same conference) and I’d call him a willing defender. He’s not going to make anyone forget Trent and size could be an issue at times, but he competes and did average more than a steal a game. And in case one thinks he was padding those stats against cupcake, he averaged a steal a game against toughest opponents on the schedule — Northwestern (had two steals), St Mary’s (3 games) and Gonzaga (2 games).

Tre all day!
If Treys shot from 3 continues to improve that really changes things. He has been shooting the trey much better and even enhances his ability to drive the ball and get fouled. I do like Trey's ceiling.Tre White for sure. Martinelli is only comparable because he is “THE” guy there and has the ball in his hand all the time. I think their floors are similar but Tre’s ceiling is so much higher. He impacts the game without the ball much better than Martinelli IMO which is the role we would have open. This is all assuming Tre and the coaching staff have resolved their internal issues and Tre doesn’t get a month long illness next year too
Role yes - money no. Brad is willing to pay him around the same amount.
But also will be raising our budget for next year with the revenue sharing in there. This year we put in around 4.5 mil and next its looking more like 6m+ with possibly going higher.
If it means he’s playing with and hanging out with his brother everyday ? Very comfortable …
I hadn’t heard it would be the same amount …
That’s interesting and also absolutely insane by Brad …
I agree with you and have heard the same … $6-7 million to spend …
watching the ark sc game right now and have to say i like z a lot more when we're not playing him
lol, Boswell is not coming off the bench..
Do you think St. Johns will be after him though with him being in Pitino's back yard? Would love this pickup though.

Huff stretch 4?
Will take big Z to go with Tomi and Morez. We need off bench size and Cal is an idiot coaching wise.
NBA scouts like him as well …
Lot of teams will be after him … St John’s included …
Martenelli for sure just due to being an offense weapon. Tre can rebound/glue work, but Martenelli post and can shoot.
Haven’t really noticed Martinelli other than his offense, Who would you rather have?
Looking for two starters and a two guys to make a big impact off the bench going into this offseason. In a great spot with Dame Sarr, gonna swing big at a guard, land another 3 most likely, and a backup big. I think they may try to keep Tre, but we will see what happens.
Depends on the cushion on the chair. Ok I'll leave
Personally - Tre … IF I can get this recent version of Tre consistently …
If it’s gonna be inconsistent Tre … Give me Martinelli …
