Not worried at all...exhibitions are glorified practice games where you work on things you worked on back at the home gym...yes we have things to work on while everyone adjusts to a new coach and system...work in progress...As a coach myself I am going to enjoy watching and experiencing the...

Goodwin got hurt and Tilmon played like crap...opened the door for Smith

If you read THT‘s mother‘s comments following the announcement… The comments seems inconsistent with a scholarship being pulled… A reasonable analysis of those comments is that THT simply decided to go elsewhere… Nothing more… nothing less

Also, if someone got their feelings hurt, Get over it… Winning will cure everything and if you win kids no matter where they play basketball in Chicago will want to go play for a winner

If you think taking a scholarship off the table is something new in recruiting then you have your head in the sand… This happens all the time and especially with bluebloods… Welcome to big time recruiting board… I trust Underwood and his staff… They know what they are doing… We just have to get...

I think it was said best when it was said “we are not going to beg anyone to come to Illinois“. Screw the politics and let’s play some basketball

Sounds like Ayo and Finke and find a big in the spring....all is well and the train keeps on rolling with BU at the helm..I am good, enthusiastic about the future and ready to kick some tail...GO ILLINI

If there really is a dilemma between Ayo and THT or their “camps” I personally find it disheartening...BU shouldn’t have to deal with this &/@!...and you really want to recruit Chicago...if there really isn’t a dilemma, this board among others sure look foolish...here’s hoping maturity and...

Please leave Dee alone and get back to takin hoops

Do not care about JT… Not wearing orange and blue… Don't care… What I find interesting is that KMOX is reporting that the number one recruit in Illinois was arrested at the University Missouri for an alcohol related charge… Was Mark Smith with JT? Sarcasm intended

Our new transfer takes over the role of JCL...Jordan needs to grow as a player but won't be thrust into that primary role IMO

There is a part of me who is sad to see JCL leave… However, there is a part of me that was truly wondering what his role would be… If you watch Oklahoma state last year and the video where BU describes the basics of his offense I am not quite certain that JCL fit like some of you believe… This...

If a big was not a position of need, based on several comments above, would we want Tilmon? Or are we talking about Tilmon solely based on need?

Agreed

I cannot recall...why did JT leave Lalu? Just curious since Some are linking JTs interest to DePaul to the Lalu Coach
