An underwhelming nba career is not on cuonzo as he is not coaching those guys anymore. Who is a guy, like Jalen Brown, who everybody said, “this guy is going to the league for sure,” and didn’t? That usually means 5 star guys coming out of high school.

Rabb, Bird and Hubbs were all in the top 25 of RSCI which is generally considered to be the range for a 5 star. Rabb was drafted in the second round this past spring but has yet to make an impact in the NBA. When combined with Brown he is 1/4 for 5*s living up to expectations under him.

Ayo's been asking Illini Nation to vote for him for player of the week.

It only takes a few seconds (no registration required): vote here

Can't vote a second time from work. Will vote again this evening at home.

But Rabb is in the league right? So 2/4?

I wouldn't read too much on where EJ sits Saturday. I believe that each year it switches which end the prospective recruits sit. Last year it was our side, so I think it might be Missouri this year.

I think it is based on who is technically the home team right? That is the only way you can “host” visitors.

We really need a quality win before we head into the meat of the conference schedule. I can't think of a better team to beat than Mizzou! While we have struggled a bit to put 40 minutes together against a decent opponent, I am extremely encouraged by stretches like the 2nd half of the Maryland game. I am optimistic that BU has them ready to go and the Illini bring home an 82-74 victory in front of a raucous crowd! Go Illini!:shield:

Or you could say Weber has BP3 in the league.

Let’s call it 3/4 Bruce and 1/4 John.

I’d call it 3% Bruce, 1% John, 7% whoever was coaching BP the last several years, 90% BP himself. Amazing guy.

Truth. Would give Mom some credit as well...above Bruce and John.
