Derek Harper is the best point guard in my time as a fan. Such a great athlete. 15 year NBA career. I have Deron second. Then Bruce Douglas (left Illinois as the all time Big Ten leader in steals and assists. Big Ten MVP.) Frank. Clutch gene. Then Dee. He was much better when he played...

So he was mad at the coaches. Happens all the time with players during games. Fans make a bigger deal out of things than they really are. Epps needed to stop going under screens. Coaches let him know. He’ll get over it.

Epps was out with the team last night celebrating the win.

Mahomet-Seymour. Class of 72.

Preferred walkon likely

Maybe not until the kid is on campus? Writing someone off who hasn’t even practiced with the team is a bold move. You could be right, but I’ll give the kid a chance. He’s very talented.

Lol

Perrin is my guess. He doesn’t plan to be at Illinois for four years, anyway. Plus we will have been at Illinois almost a month longer to start with.

23rd

No. He hasn’t practiced fully yet. Should be ready to go in 7-10 days.

Illinois did not push him out. How can you keep a kid who wants to leave for more time. He takes far more shots than any player on Illinois. 6th most in the country. He wasn’t getting that many shots at Illinois. If he had stayed and been patient, he would have been a help to the current...

Not so sure it worked out so great for Jake. He was promised a starting spot at Duke. He’s not playing a lot these days. Podziemski was not run off. He left to get more minutes. He went to a level where he could average the sixth most shots per game in the country. He’s done well in that...

Im told he’s playing Wednesday, so there’s that.

Bardo was the point. Backup point Larry Smith actually led the team in assists. Gill was a natural 2-guard.

He’s at a different prep school now.
