Disappointing, his development really took off here. He really has to figure out his free throw shooting before he will reach his full potential. Even if he becomes the featured player on offense, teams will just Hack a Shaq him

SIU retains Jerrance Howard as assistant coach Good for them, maybe they can recruit and develop our next star transfer!

Former Illini Mark “Charmin Soft” Smith getting his chance to play NBA Summer League. Maybe he will turn into the next D-Will like Underwood said freshman year….

Kiwane Garris Jr, 6’4” 2025 from Georgia just picked up an offer from Old Dominion…his dad was a pretty good Illini back in the day

I’m surprised WVU didn’t ask Bruce Weber to be a 1 year caretaker. Bruce seems to do well with other coach’s recruits.

Wasn’t that the mountain Tevian Jones climbed after he left and went into the portal? He averaged 17 ppg last season but I don’t think he has any eligibility left. Must be someone else 🤷🏻‍♂️

Darrion Sutton picks up an Iowa offer after his Illinois and Mizzou offers. Hard to see him fitting in on Iowa, has never played on a team that scores through the offense. He normally needs to hold the ball and dribble it to score - fairly ball dominant and about as tooth-pickish as Manute...

Speaking of East St. Louis....2 seasons ago they lost to O’Fallon IL. I coach AAU HS Hoops and know very little about football. One of the best O’Fallon players also plays AAU hoops....Keith Randolph’s little brother Kaleb. I was told by coaches in the know that O’Fallon’s Kaleb Randolph was...

EJ is a great young man and has a wonderful family. His little brother Miles is a 2024 at Belleville West who is just starting to develop into a good player. Lil brother is only about 6’2” but shoots well and he is starting to dunk regularly in games. Plays AAU for the SW Illinois Jets. He’s...

Stats and highlights seem a little underwhelming but they probably have to extend an offer regardless of his ranking....he’s a legacy from one of the best players in the program’s history

EJ Liddell goes down with a knee injury last night and getting an MRI today. Looked ACL-ish type injury but I hope it’s just a sprain and he’s not out too long. Glad that the Bulls decided to keep Ayo out of the summer league. Magic appear to have shut down summer league Paulo too....

Chattanooga sports fans were speculating he would portal and follow his coach to South Carolina....

I wish the best for AC and hope he does well at his next stop. He was fun to watch and his highlights put the eyes of fans and recruits on our program in a good way. It saddens me that the staff couldn’t find a way to blend his individual style into Underwood’s more team style, but it isn’t a...

I like it better than a Tipton edit!
