Former Illini in College Hoops

Does Lieb have 1, 2 or 3 years left at ISU? He was at Illinois for 3 years. But I thought he red shirted. Then with a Covid year...where does he stand eligibility wise??

He has two years of eligibility left and can also still redshirt. His first year doesn’t count toward his eligibility (all athletes got 20-21 season as a freebie).

Where did you see that? Everything I've read this morning has him penciled in as one of their best players.
On RJ Melendez's performances through practice and tonight's exhibition...
"Yeah, he's more than secretly pretty good. He's a good player. He can fill up the stat sheet, and I like the level of confidence he played with for a guy who hasn't logged those type of minutes in his college career. Good to see him take advantage, and who knows moving forward. He's got competition in his spot, but I thought he played pretty well tonight."

Sounds like a coach that wants to keep him working hard. I think you'll see him as top 2 scorer for them (the kid they got from Niagara can really score).

PS, you can get RJ to score 12+ points for +180 if you're into that sort of thing lol
Would have taken the under for RJ. Checked about half way through 1st have zero points
And 3 turnovers.

Finished with 12 points
