I normally don't get too amped up for these hype videos, but Chester is amazing.
I can’t believe how quickly BU got us to this point. I’m so happy to be relevant for 3 years straight.
Did I reference the first 2 years? If so, I didn’t intend to. I said we have been relevant for 3 years straight (counting this upcoming season) and that he got us here pretty quickly. Not sure why you want to jab me about that innocuous comment. Do you disagree?Those first couple seasons were pretty rough.

They were, but even in those terrible seasons you could see flashes.Those first couple seasons were pretty rough.
No, you did not. That was me reading more into it. I’m with you stride for stride. It’s much more fun being relevant than, well, irrelevance.
Little PTSD seeped in there for a moment. Orange Kool-aid is flowing again.
Lol 99 accord.

I love him bragging on his resume. "I'm top 10 all time in assists here stop playing" "how many all defense teams you got, I got 2". The players know he's been there done that and it happened because he WORKED.

Almost spit my coffee out at that part.
I'm a complete idiot.....I'm gonna play the old dunce here and ask the dumb question. LOL
What exactly was Chet referring to with that quote?

He had just said something about "having their engines running today", and then said 99 Accord. As opposed to something like a Ferrari, Hemi Charger, etc. Just taking a little dig.

Illini Inquirer podcast w/LaTulip is really good: https://247sports.com/college/illin...-an-illinois-fighting-illini-athletics-po-22/
Seems like he is much more of a Hawk fan and not so much a Hutch believer. Sounds like his starting lineup would be Kofi, Hawk, Jacob, Trent and Belo. Both he and BU are talking time at the five for Hawk. Like DW off the bench. Don’t really think we are going to learn that much from the first game as it will be an experiment. Fun problems for coach.
What is this about?
It's the area code for Kentucky
I get that but why would it matter for Trent Frazier? He can't go anywhere at this point (can he?) and he doesn't have any more eligibility available after this season.
Think he might be talking about coach Frazier, lol.
That would explain my confusion. Don't mind me, my brain is not functioning properly recently.
I disagree -- 3 achievable ways Kofi can raise his draft stock:
1) Most important -- show he can pass out of double-teams
2) shoot at least 65% free throws.
3) Make a short jumper from 6-10 feet.
Add perimeter defense especially on the pick/roll.
If he does those four things, he will be picked very high. That said, it's probably more realistic to really work on two of them.
