[QUOTE="Orangetool, post: 1690121, member: 8608"] If one stands back and takes in the Underwood era so far what sticks out? PLAYER DEVELOPMENT. How much better is Kofi's game now vs. when he first came in? Better hands, better footwork, moving better, playing defense and added touch to the shots that need it. Compare Hawkins game this year vs. last. Damonte Williams is a far better player now than when he first became an Illini. I am remembering players like Tisdale, Bertrand, even Malcolm Hill, whose games didn't progress much during their time at Illinois. I am sure some of you will have other / better examples of what I am saying. Players get better when they play at Illinois. Some get so good they go onto the next level. Potential recruits will see this as well. This will mean sustained success in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
