I feel you, dawg!
It's pretty obvious Kouma plans on joining next season.
I dare say...vibes
So what’s up with Adam Miller. There were rumors earlier in the week that he could be announcing soon... then Monday.... then Monday at the NIKE store in Chicago... and I don’t think I’ve heard anything since. Anyone know what’s up?
Maybe taking Tevians place?

Seems like a big leap.
I hope not Tevian has a huge upside
He needs to take care of business off the court or we'll never see that upside here. 2 suspensions in 2 seasons does not bode well for his long term future. I hope the light comes on for him and soon.

I would hate to lose him, only to see him become another iteration of Kendrick Nunn.

I'm not on the Tevian train. He's been suspended twice and we've only seen one good game from him. He's gotta show me, and when he's suspended, he can't.
Where are the scholarships coming from?

Two open, Ayo goes pro plus average transfer rate gets you to 4. But I think you knew this.Where are the scholarships coming from?
I did know this but you are assuming a lot of things there
This looks new:

Something like that. Too many kids feel like UI would be lucky to get them. Need to Male Illinois Cool Again

This feels right, and actually pretty safe to count on. Hawkins and Curbelo take the two opens. Miller takes Ayo’s spot. Obviously, we would make room for Miller even if Ayo stayed, but I think it’s a moot point because Miller would likely back out in that scenario.
Kouma can commit, but I’m guessing he is really a spring decision for the staff if no one voluntarily transfers/leaves the team between now and then. Likely someone will.
Also, I’m hopeful Miller commits very soon, but I would be shocked if he signs before Ayo declares.
A one done 1st rounder might not outplay a lottery pick junior, in my opinion.
But your opinion or my opinion won’t matter.
The question is whether or not Miller would want to play on the same team, at essentially the same position, as his buddy Ayo.
I thought I had read on here that either he or his camp had indicated that he would not
Is Kouma playing somewhere this year? Would he have to sit out in 2020? If he’s at a JUCO maybe he gets his degree and transfers to Illinois in 2021 to be immediately eligible?
he’s at Iowa Western according to Kedric Prince but I checked and his name wasn’t in the box score in their first game so not sure if that is accurate

I believe the rule is we can oversign by one but not two. So, for this scenario, Kouma would have to wait to sign until the spring assuming a spot opens up. I guess if Miller commits but doesn't sign, that would work too. But that seems less likely to me.
Yes you’re right I stand corrected. According to Orange and Blue news he’s at South Plains CC in Texas
