Because going all in and still not getting him would have made us all feel better.

What info do you have that indicates BU did not go all out WRT recruiting Tilmon?

Flo Thamba is a 6'10" 230lb center. He is taking his last official visit. On Thursday. To Champaign. Let's go.

Great news on Thamba (final 4). Really hope staff can close the deal on his OV.

The good news here is that we made his final 4, and he hasn't even visited us yet.
That's a good thing, right?
Illini_1979

Certainly better than the alternative.

Can confirm Evan Boudreaux will transfer to Xavier. All-Ivy League player has two years for the Musketeers.

I know they are basically click bait and fairly meaningless, but how do the crystal balls stand on Thamab???

Man, who wants to go through life as a Hokie?
We can go with the Flo pretty easily - noice the Illini is his last visit.
Didn't know Tillman had eligibility left. Interesting.
Does the NCAA allow us to recruit pro football players for CBB, too? Noice again.
Leaving aside that they are vastly different types of players and that the 2 have no connection I'm aware of, Nova din't make his final 4.

Who did?
Holy geez. Why!?
I get that Tim Miles is charming and funny. But...other than the fact that Nebraska is in the Big 10 I don't see what it has to offer over other possibilities.

This needs to not happen.
I believe he is in the top 25. If Kipper is averaging .1 rebound more per game and is 21st, then Finke is tied for 22nd. And, being just .1 behind Kipper, basically means we is tied for team lead. Kipper should be a better rebounder because he is more athletic and can jump better, as well as quicker, but give me 6 rpg every day from Finke and he has more than done his job.
Less open spots.

Frankly sir, you have a sensibly objective point-of-view that's killing the vibe around here.
I agree with the general concept that four-year players often offer more total value than 1 or 2 year players even if they are a bit better, but I nonetheless very much agree with this post (especially given that Tilmon is no surefire lottery pick and may himself be a 4-year beast).
Still, you gotta get what you can get. Thamba has a nice offer list and would fill a water-in-the-desert need.
