I would love to see an athletic 4 who is a defender/rebounder dawg type kid. A guy who if he gets 10-12 on a nite it’s because he got it off hustle, transition and the glass.
Wondering now that the season and announcements have almost wrapped up, who is the guy in this group that locks them back in for working toward next season? Having all the decisions early and so much retention should be a huge advantage if they put in the work!
Feels like Mirk probably the guy...
Am I overreacting to Morillo from last by thinking he’s a ready to shine freshman next year? Love what I saw and how his particular skill set fits what the Illini do?
With Sarr and two complimentary pieces your expectations seem too high or at the very least sweet 16 seems to be the cieling.
What happened to getting two big splash pieces out of the portal?
Was the cost for players this year misjudged?
