To expand on that question:

1)Do we have money for a significant add?
2)If so, who on the current roster would get screwed out of minutes?

IMO 1 + 2 = no add except maybe a long term development player and/or someone signed to keep an agent happy

NOTE: Class of 2022 players who entered the portal in the traditional transfer window (April 7th—April 21st), can still transfer.

The previous transfer rules are still in place. Colorado just did not create a new transfer window.

Florida can still retain Aberdeen.

Florida almost had Aberdeen

Though Xavian Lee could return now, I believe

Complete chaos.

I don’t think we’re in a spot where we need to add someone and screw everything up with our guys who are here.

I think I’d agree given the buzz that Williams has been better-than-expected.

from my understanding, they retain both of them.

Agree. After a full HS recruiting cycle and transfer cycle, I'm wondering which team(s) does this not apply to. I'd think that most coaches/programs have spent their money and their rosters are set.

How about if Blackwell fights that coming back to illini wasnt an option when signed 2 way? Could that be something that staff would consider?

Assume you mean Boswell here?

I agree.

With Domask and Keaton Wagler alone, I don’t think literally a single person overvalued them.

If anything most “undervaluations” we’ve had probably just stems from others vastly overachieving and taking usage from those we had “higher” individual expectations on

Booth, melendez, mayer, hum, petro. You don't have to think too hard to find the overs.
