Yeah, our tournament losses against Loyola, UCONN, and UK were brutal because we went half of those games ice cold fr distance. Need to find that elite shooter to space the floor and knock down big shoots when we are in a drought.

McKneely would be our Plummer, and man how we could have used a Plummer this season. Having a true, consistent, ace shooter was probably the biggest thing we were missing all season (and I know Ben was supposed to be that guy, but sadly he just did not have the "consistent" part down).
Ben's shooting splits this season were 37/34/70. 🤮🤮🤮

I'd argue he did't even have the "shooter" part down sadly.

I wasn't mentally ready to start with this today, but now that we're out of the tournament and the portal is officially open, it seems now is the time to relaunch the Unofficial Illinois Loyalty Portal Tracker.

As with last year, I will try to keep this updated with names that get posted here by those with some of that inside info to have a consolidated list of the names that we should be paying attention to. Orange names are ones that seem to be higher priority targets, dark blue names are ones that we will likely have some interest in or contact with but may not be top targets. I will also include names if a linked tweet says we've been in contact even if they haven't been reported by our insiders. I will continue to include our insider Crystal Ball, which is typically information coming from @Indy Illini Fan , to see what the trends are for who is going where. Last year Indy went a cool 46/54 for a solid 85%.

I'm only including names of people that are officially in the portal (currently using 247's Portal List as my reference, but if people have a better one let me know!), so some names may get discussed on here that don't show up in the list yet.

If someone has information to correct anything, I'm appreciative of the corrections. If anyone has any suggestions, feel free to DM or reply.

I've left last years sheet in as a tab in case people feel like browsing, but will probably hide it later as the current season list grows.

I'll try and post occasionally throughout the week with the updated link to the sheet, and the link will also live in my signature. ILL

Who on this seasons' roster is committed, or leaning toward returning next season and who is gone for sure?

We supposedly looked at him last year.
I guess Glenn was teammates with White at Louisville. I'm not familiar with this dude at all, but his 3-point percentage is quite good. Looks like a great athlete. Rough FT%, though.

Remember this name, guess he should of stayed with his original committment.

I know we're only a day post elimination, but what are our insiders initial feelings on retention of this years players for next year?

I've seen notes about Tre and Kylan. Feel like if you could add Tomi and Morez to that group, you're ecstatic
