    What do you expect him to say? He wants to be drafted. Until he gets feedback on where he stacks he can’t make a decision to stay or go.

    I honestly think this will cost the NCAA money long term. One of the biggest things that cause people to care about the tournament is picking your bracket. It is the biggest reason the NCAA will not consider reseeding the field for the sweet 16 or final 4. Now to get the 12 over 5 upset you...

    I don’t think scouts know how to truly evaluate a QB. For most other positions you can look at combine results and have a good chance of being right Think of all the draft busts and QBs taken round 6 or 7 that surprise people

    I think Luke is a better QB than a few picked over him. If he can learn the offense and take advantage of the opportunities he is given he could earn a back up spot

    There is a new executive order that goes into effect in August. It will be challenged but there will be one free transfer then you can’t transfer with out sitting out a year until you graduate.

    Illinois #5 in final AP Poll

    I agree with you but then by that logic Iowa and Tennessee shouldn’t have jumped 11 spots because of their NCAA run

    Having that much money is a positive. This years team gel very well. Players accepted their role and played together. Coaching staff has shown a track record of identifying talent and developing players. Losing our starting guards in Boswell and Wagler will be a huge hole to fill. Hope we can...
