Foolishness. Look at the value Ayo had as a freshman. Miller is similarly ranked, and won't have the pressure Ayo had.Bart Torvik has us at #17, 5th in the B1G

I'll never not think of this when I hear about NC A&T
He also won’t have the clear path to time and emphasis on utilization that Ayo had. I think Adam will be an important part of team’s success this year, but it isn’t guaranteed he has same impact as Ayo early because of the overall talent of the two teams being different.Foolishness.

Typically, this time of the year we are mocking preseason rankingsHe also won’t have the clear path to time and emphasis on utilization that Ayo had.

I really don’t pay much mind to the pre-season rankings and such. In my mind right now the Illini are a top 25 team. That’s not to say I don’t expect more out of them, but I’ll wait to see the team on the floor against competition. After all that is where what matters will happen. They perform there and rest takes care of itself. But boy oh boy am I excited to see them in action.
It would be so nice to have some three-point production from Damonte this year. He does everything else so well.
It’s nice to see Curbelo pass and Da’Monte shoot... but that was just a defensive breakdown by #3. That can’t happen against Baylor or Dook
There were games last year when it seemed like the other team wasn’t even guarding him. Being able to hit an unguarded 3 with regularity would improve his game so much in my own worthless opinion.It would be so nice to have some three-point production from Damonte this year.

Hear you captain on the "Music to my ears" IMO if the "fresh" on this team can contribute and be very effective , and everyone stays healthy.Matt Norlander of CBS Sports.com has Illinois ranked 4th in the nation. Music to my ears.
18 games or 20?Big Ten hoping to release 2020-21 schedule sometime next week
We should hold auditions to see who can yell the loudest to make up for the lack of numbers lol.
I hope we could do something like this.
