If you think it's been tough being an Illinois fan watching so many in-state players suit up for other schools over the years, imagine how frustrated Wisky fans must be right now.

Vaaks has lottery pick potential to my eye, especially in what's thought to be a weaker class next year. I have no idea what's going to happen once he's in orange. He may meet the challenge or he may crumble under the weight of the expectations. Maybe it takes him two or three seasons rather...

I have a guess.

Well, of course, considering it takes 10 years to see a boost from a F4 run.

Sounds very similar to someone else we're all familiar with.

Burn in hell, Bo Ryan. :mad:

ZZ!

I'd play for Mick Cronin 100 games out of 100 before I'd ever play for Will Wade.

I can't wait until this career 9 ppg guard I've never heard of turns into a 20 ppg killer who torches Illinois for 30+ multiple times next season.

I mean, yeah, besides that. :LOL:

People can say what they want about Mick Cronin, but the dude can coach and he's insanely competitive. He will not go gentle into that good night. And I assume they have plenty of cash to throw around.

All of Tomi, Mirk, and Andrej would have been top 10-15 portal entries. Z would have been way up the list, too. Add Blackwell and you're talking 4 top 10-15 guys. Wild.
