It's entirely possible that something is "lost in translation" but I have always viewed him as having very poor sportsmanship - or at least that his judgment about when it's appropriate to talk trash and be demonstrative, etc., is in dire need of wholesale recalibration.

Am I the only one who would love to HD join Illinois (don't believe it will ever happen). He would make us immensely better next year. Dain and Hunter would be a great 4 and 5

The world is changing with the portal and NIL. Our foes become our favs with the simple change of uniforms.

Happens all the time in pro sports and, like it or not, college bball is now, by definition and in fact, a professional sport.

I'm going to respectfully disagree. Since I live in B-N, I've watched ISU play many times. Lieb would be, IMO, in over his head in the MVC and probably wouldn't get many minutes. I'll stand by my original claim that he would be best located in a strong D3 league. There's no shame in that, there are many outstanding teams and players at that level.

I graduated from a highest level D3 hoops school. Played pickup games for years with the guys that those starters cooked in practice. Play against some D3 guys still. And I swear on the Bible, Brandon Lieb would have dropped 30/10 easy on the best D3 schools every week and twice on Sundays. If Blieb wanted to be the Bill Russell of Whitewater, I don't think he'd have spent 3 years in Champaign. He's earned a bigger shot than that.

Dickinson? Hard no.
Buie? Please
Tominaga? I just threw up in my mouth a little bit. I admit the kid has talent, but his antics in the FT lane against us a couple of years ago is something I can't get past. I'm all for pesky players that irritate the other team, but at least know the rules of basketball.

Jeremy Werner might murder you. He loves the kid.
