I really hope Dwight Coleby is high priority right now. A BIG opportunity for him in O&B!

This is gonna hurt! Shattered dreams.

<sigh> Proof read before hitting enter fam. Welp...gonna go grabmy cup to soften the blow.

Why is this even a thing? Why would Smith feel threatened by Moore? Smith can play 1-3 (even a 4 in a small lineup), and he'd have a season under his belt by the time Moore is eligible. So...he feels some kinda way about Moore but is considering Kentucky and MSU both having burger boys? If both...

This! Has anyone else noticed how horrible the out of bounds plays are? Not to mention the press breaker (irrelevant today but still) I've played and coached many years and I hate Groce's inbound plays. Need to run at least a couple Flex or Swing offensive sets to get shooters a clean look. SMH...

How tall is Kipper? Looks to be the same size as MH

Lol. Yeah...at least that's what the kids call it. But if you are huff it's a no go. Seriously though...smaller school kids need that to prepare for the next level. Going into the city and competing with the best helps develop your game. That would be the difference between Ethan and others. He...

True...sorta. Ethan had a hood pass and always played in and against Rock Island whenever he could. (played against Chasson Randle and friends a bunch even though he's younger) Also played for the QC Elite. (owned Finke in more than a few matchups with the Irish) I could be wrong but I doubt...

Agree the uniforms are GOD awful compared to other programs. Our uni's are "Huff" as the fellas would say.

I thought the same thing. I guess it's that old school upperclassmen play first thing again. I thought they stopped that when I played in the 90's. I thought players play players? IJS

What is the deal with Kansas? What did ILL do to Self/ Howard to deserve repeatedly being played like Willie Lump Lump??? Apparently Howard plans on staying out of state permanently! I mean how many times do you stick it to a former? What is the source of the bad blood?

Lol. Definitely a retro style clip. Wisconsin Green Bay is probably where he lands. I only mention a cat like Patterson because of need at this position. I saw him at two tourneys this summer. So...when we whiff we rollover?

Why aren't we talking to Manny Patterson ( 6'8 C @ Chi Kenwood). Plus defender with good athleticism. Saw him play this summer. I know we have bigger fish we are after but this kid would be a good 4 when those fall through. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uDNgez1nXPs

Is there a replay scheduled on BIG10 network?

I hate that he strings Groce along like he actually has a shot. Just tell him so he can fill the spot with the best available talent. smh...everyone wants the dramatic announcement. pfffff
