Iowa beat #13 Oregon. BIG may be better than ranked. Okoro 0 pts.
Okoro would no doubt be our starting Center.Frustrating cuz Okoro probably is starting for us if not one of the 1st off the bench.

Oregon had no idea what to do against zone.
JCL 0/5 from 3, 1/2 from the stripe, finished with 3 points. He hasn't had a very strong start to this season.
DePaul’s program currently feels very much like where most on here would love Illinois to be.
1 - Current team has 2-3 legitimate athletic bigs.
2 - A Big East POY and likely 1st rounder in Strus.
3 - Roster balance, now, and with a top 20 recruiting class coming in along with a former 3/4* athletic wing transfer from Arkansas.
4 - Very much in the running for TSJ and another big, which would put class near top 10 nationally, and IF TSJ recommits to them, 2 top Chicago recruits.
5 - Off to best start in 10 years
6 - New arena, albeit empty most nights
Add what Loyola did last year and NW’s program state and one could either be encouraged or envious. We can do this, but Illinois is facing in state competition like it hasn’t in a while. Could this be a recruit preferring the city over the country, or just coincidence?
Okoro is way more talented than Giorgi.Think there is doubt, unless we play Giorgi at the four. Nice problem to have, certainly gives us more depth.
Is that why he played 2 minutes last night?Okoro is way more talented than Giorgi.

Look at Oregon's roster and then look at ours. Okoro would be our starting center if he chosed the Illini.Is that why he played 2 minutes last night?
