Dad played in the NBA. Little brother headed to Duke. Big time family expectations.
Yes, but dad is in Underwood's corner.

Maybe something like Grandison, Miller, and someone else stepping up would effectively boost the 3 pt shooting enough. If Trent shoots 40% on threes that would probably bode well for the season, but not sure that can be expected within the game plan, Trent being a defensive stopper, etc.As if it wasn’t already needed badly. We HAVE to have Trent shooting above 40% from three this year now
Damonte shooting better is a game changer, literally.Liked Griffin and do wish he was staying. But, as I said earlier, I’m still calm about the team and wish him well.
Trent shot .309 from 3 last year while taking on a much more demanding role. Time and additional comfort, I believe that improves. Griffin did shoot.416. Thats good. No doubt about it. Damonte ended up at .283. If he can shoot like he did in the final 2+ weeks of the season with confidence and can even reach .333 that would be huge.
With that being said, I think we will have a better shooting team overall. Plus, I’ll work with Kofi being down low dominating the boards. I see an improved team coming...
Add Nebraska and Maryland as potential landing spots for Alan.
I assume illini0440 is talking about Malik Fitts. If we get him we are going to be awesome next year. Stud.
A 6-8 forward who has shot 40% from 3 the past two years? Yes, pleaseNot familiar with his game but stats from this year look great.

Think his dad will talk him out of it?
Doubtful. Dad, like any parent, just want their kids to be happy and obviously Alan wasn't at UI. Now hearing that Seton Hall, Dad's alma mater, is getting involved.

Seton Hall would be a good fit as well as Nova...both schools could probably use his skill set. Wish him the best.
UConn with his sister?Not so on Nova, but SH certainly. They lost 3 of 5 top scorers. Sister is at Storrs, younger brother will be at R-D and Mom is in NYC area so it all fits. Like I say, don't count out the Hall.
If he's gone as far as putting his name in the portal, he's gone. I'm sure he's talked to his family and I'm sure the end of season "exit interview" was conducted by BU.... obviously the two visions of how things were going to work didn't match.Think his dad will talk him out of it?
Not true at all.Doubtful. Dad, like any parent, just want their kids to be happy and obviously Alan wasn't at UI. Now hearing that Seton Hall, Dad's alma mater, is getting involved.
