If you’ve been following me on here … It’s old news …

They’re still working on wrapping things up with Tomi’s return and from my understanding he wants to play with his brother … He would like that to be part of the deal and is not afraid to enter the portal to make it happen …

This shouldn’t be difficult from the Illinois side … You take them both … Get the freaking deal done Brad …

This seems like a no brainer... Obviously, it's a way to keep Tomi, but with Rez leaving, it just feels almost natural?

Well it would be interesting to see schools declare "if you enter the portal you're dead to me" and see how they do, like it wouldn't surprise me if Izzo said that.

Yeah. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if some coaches do that.

If only Brad would take this advice with regards to his coaching staff.

Second place is 1st loser said:
Having two 7'1" dudes that could shoot would be sweet. Has that ever happened on any roster like....ever? Neither are the most physical guys in the world, but having two would be a bit of a different story.

That would actually be pretty fun to watch.

Miznoz had the Haley twins, but they couldnt shoot. (edited for the shooting comment)

I may be in the minority on this, but I hope they pass on him. The games I watched Arkansas, I was not impressed and he barely played during their tourney run. Tomi is a much better shooter & actually plays defense.

There was some serious competition for minutes in the front court on Arkansas. No shame in playing behind Brazile, Thiero, and Aidoo. (all upperclassmen, all 55% or better from the field, all with over 45 games started in the SEC)

If you pass on Z, you are passing on Tomi too. One of the great draws for Tomi to return to college has to be to play with his brother. Someone is going to put them on the floor together. I'd be thrilled if it's the Illini.
