There's a few narratives as to why Tilmon hasn' committed anywhere, I choose to believe this one. If he was such a strong Mizzou lean I find it extremely weird he hasn't, at the very least, had an in home with Cuonzo (unless I missed that.)
Although another thought I have is that Mizzou + tilmon are trying to keep things quiet about the connection given how a quick marriage might dredge up some findings that aren't too positive for Miz.
I actually think Tilmon will have a tough time averaging over 20 mins a game next year (if he's at UI), which is still a big chunk of playing time, but his senior year seemed to point towards a similar outcome as Lerons--sparks of greatness, but mostly just fouls on fouls.
Either way, I'd be absolutely shocked if we dont grab a 5th year center. Even if he's only going to play 8ish minutes, we can't have a rotation of Black and Finke at the 5.Although, I guess if we score 100+ pts a game it wont matter if we defend
