I believe OK St. Has a post-season ban this year. I'm confused as to why Lunardi would include them in his bracket.Yeah they still only have 2 losses. Plus I would love to have that draw with alabama as our 2 seed. Cade Cunningham as the 4 little scary but still. I think we can go to final 4 in that draw

Seems like something an idiot would do... oh.. wait... Makes perfect sense.
One of the few instances where I'm glad for another team pushing their ban down the road. I selfishly want to see Cade in the tourney.They don't have one. They appealed and no ruling has come down from the NCAA yet, so their postseason ban will likely be in effect next season, without Cade Cunningham.
As an aside, on the IG posts Hutch is wearing an Illini shirt. Has to bode well for him coming back here next year, right?Was uncertain about taking Hutch and Grandison, but that was a great call. And Hawkins has been better than I anticipated. Our staff knows what they are doing.

I guessing that he was speculating about Hutch going to another D1 program. Earlier in the year, folks on the board were speculating (as is done too often for me preference) who would transfer out and Hutch was a leading candidate. I hope it doesn't happen. I know it happens every year, but I don't want anyone to transfer.Mebbe it was his only clean shirt.
Given his injury history and the lack of D1 ball, I very highly doubt he'll be drafted. I'm pretty confident he could get a FA tryout with any number of teams (especially considering his NBA connection), but I'm thinking teams would like to see him get through a D1 season.
Exactly- he had Michigan in the same bracket as Ohio St all day today as well- which obviously can’t happen by the bracket rules (you know the thing that he’s supposedly an expert in!)Seems like something an idiot would do... oh.. wait... Makes perfect sense.
Not happening. If Hutch plays any more college ball, it'll be for Illinois.I guessing that he was speculating about Hutch going to another D1 program.

Of course, I could be completely mistaken.
Drafted? Out of D3?Mebbe it was his only clean shirt.

The Hutch NBA draft narrative is...perplexing. He's recovering from a pretty serious injury, having never played high major college basketball.Drafted? Out of D3?

What am I missing other than the hottest of Loyalty hot takes her? His connections will get him drafted or at least an NBA tryout? A stress fracture to his back is...not as serious as it sounds?
Yes, but only at your prompting. Austin's account is mostly photos of himself in uniform and with his girlfriend, pretty benign stuff. I did watch the video posted by the NBA talent developer and yes, he's got mad hops, but nothing changes from my original question:Have you checked Instagram lately?
I believe it’s been insinuated on here Hutch wouldn’t be back, either due to health or other reasons. I was just saying his Illinois shirt is a positive for him coming back.The Hutch NBA draft narrative is...perplexing.

I believe it's the 5th amendment that states a person has the right to remain silent.....everyone has that right.....but not many have the ability!I'll state this another way. I know jack about basketball. But if Austin Hutcherson is in the NBA next year, I'll happily eat crow. For a week. And I'm vegan. Until then, I'll stand by my 1st Amendment rights and opine that these are wild hot takes.
I feel like Cunningham has to be the only reason they allowed this to be pushed down the road. After losing out on tourney money last year, they want another reason for people to be motivated to watch games.One of the few instances where I'm glad for another team pushing their ban down the road. I selfishly want to see Cade in the tourney.
I guess I'm the idiot for believing a NCAA sanction would have any teeth whatsoever. I'd hate to see a team punished in a year where it would actually serve as a punishment.They don't have one. They appealed and no ruling has come down from the NCAA yet, so their postseason ban will likely be in effect next season, without Cade Cunningham.

I forgot for a second how likeable and articulate Dee is. Thanks for the refresher!This just came out. Deon Thomas interving Dee about all things Illini Basketball culture.
I just finished it. Such fun to listen to.I forgot for a second how likeable and articulate Dee is. Thanks for the refresher!
