    I think Coleman.can and will be better than post-injury senior season KB. Attribute to injury or not, KB simply wasn't good enough post-injury. Not realistic IMO to think Vaaks will be anywhere as good as Keaton, I do think we can upgrade on post-injury senior season KB

    Good Lord 😂 People still going on about this? Folks I wasn't serious about this post on an Illinois basketball forum. It's clear we're out on him. Why not have some fun with it.... I take year 2 Andrej over year 1 Blackwell here. I really like the Coleman/Morillo/Brown trio as well. ILL

    Lee would be wise to move down and get major minutes to boost his value next portal. Wise decision IMO on his part to do it now and not burn another season at Illinois sitting the bench/limited minutes DGL stayed at Illinois 1 more year than he should have IMO. He moved down and got himself a...

    Don't blame Blackwell. Would be rough going from top 2 guard on Wisconsin to #5 guard behind Coleman/Vaaks/Brown/Morillo ILL

    Blackwell literally said in his transfer decision that he was after a place for national championship. Promise he's not seeing that at UCLA. I don't think Louisville either (personally believe Floral Bumdonga will wind up far and away the most overpaid player in portal.....he can't get own shot...

    Awesome news to get all 5 key contributors back. As mentioned above, 4 of 5 would be amongst the top portal entries. Given the center $$ going around, unbelievable to me they got both bros back I think both Coleman/Morillo will be big time contributors. Outside of another top level portal...

    For a team, per Goodman, that has "top 5 NIL", they sure end up with rubbish. Still awaiting daddy Devries to get his kid a 15th year of eligibility and give him all their NIL. Dude is so so fortunate Woodson was God awful before him. Very fortunate

    I'm sure Blackwell is salivating over UCLAs candy bag and playing for one of the lollipop munchkin kids Whether he winds up at Illinois or not, would be floored if he wound up at UCLA

    I'd think he'd be the highest paid in sport. I'd take him many times over Floral Bumdonga in Louisville. Maybe he likes that he can get away with donkey kick after donkey kick at MSU

    Cadeau-McKenney-Juke-Estrella-one of Morez/Mara/top portal center That's one hell of a roster for a possible repeat. That doesn't account for their 5 star McCoy either

    I'll always remember the Petro stans here 😂 Talented ball handler but every other part of his game was poor. I'm sure he can find a D1 team that'll give him the complete freedom he had overseas if he wants to stay stateside. I'll remember him for trying to navigate screens in Champaign and...

    JP Estrella is a steep steep steep downgrade from any of Michigan's big 3 bigs from last season. At best, he'll be their 2nd big (and most ideally 3rd IMO). He's a solid contingency guy while we see how things play out with their priority bigs/targets. I expect all 3 current Michigan bigs to go...
