Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

if he's serious about winning a championship, i think it comes down to which one he believes will get there. louisville may be stacking talent but our multi-year guys returning sets a better plan.

Lot of factor$ …

Louisville will have talent next year for sure …

Was scrolling while driving and this post startled me so much I accidentally ran over a Northwestern fan. Am now a federal fugitive wanted for violation of 16 U.S.C. 1538. Pray for me.

I hope you backed up to see what you hit . . . .

Absolutely, but their coach can't coach talent like our coach!!

QC or Morillo I am a bit more nervous about dropping sort of like Jeremiah Fears did when we pulled in better players. Maybe Coleman more? Since I could see him wanting a star role, but we’ll see. I think this year sounds like the play Brad is selling is a focus on the team, and your progression and draft stock will rise because of that, and less about a full focus just on your individual draft stock rising.

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

Hmm, could this mean they're both waiting to see what Blackwell does? Good Lord, the transfer business is tricky.

Not worried about either of them …

Do think we could see some transition though …

Coleman and Vaaks aren't leaving. Stop it.

I'd have to imagine you mean Lee and/or the other freshman coming in not named Q or Morillo.

Oh for Pete's sake, just lock up the Big Four.

Yep, guessing Lee and *maybe* Jakstys. I would imagine the freshmen stick around to see what the following season's lineup looks like.

Our “volunteer cryptographers” are up early today reinterpreting the insider messaging.

INSIDERS: All is fine with Vaaks and Coleman

CRYPTOGRAPHERS: All is fine. Does that mean it won’t be fine in the near future???

INSIDERS: Relax, I see good things happening today.

CRYPTOGRAPHERS: Today??? Oh crap… Tomorrow’s gonna be bad, isn’t it?!?!

Style of play is better here for NBA hopefuls

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

To be extremely clear …

I don’t anticipate anyone that is in line to play meaningful minutes leaving …

I expect Andrej back … Very soon …

All focus goes to Blackwell after that …

Everyone relax … Throw in a Zen …

McNeil Jr was reportedly contacted by North Carolina.

They’re after him … But if we want the kid and went full go rodeo …

North Carolina can’t hang with us financially …

 

[ChiefGritty]

If we get Zens I strongly favor ZZ Top references over Zyn references.

Wow what a statement, lol.

 

[Get yourself a new map]

Dang. Really like all of the potential backcourt adds and think there were enough minutes there. The Vaaks thing makes a ton of sense if we want to play slow again. But I think you need like 73-74 possessions/game (as opposed to 67ish) to try to convince all the guys that they will get shots.

 

[RabidDawgClassic]

I’m old enough to get that reference.

 

[Indy Illini Fan]

Absolutely, but their coach can't coach talent like our coach!!

I don’t think they’ll finish top 4 ACC this year …

And they’re going to have a top 10 and closer to top 5 paid roster …

Telling this board to relax is like telling a dog not to bark and chase a squirrel.
