I trust the staff. Just know that it is going to take awhile to build some credibility. Until then I need to blend enthusiasm with reality.You guys just got to let this play out. Nothing is finalized yet.

They will get us a big.

Let's see how this plays out. Playing time might have been one of OUR selling points but I'm betting our coaching staff has much more.
Yup to all of this.

Of course they will get a big, but which big? I prefer CC

As I said , staff has done all it can, I have faith they will have someone that wants to be here, It may still be CC.
Underwood can at least claim superiority over Michigan by virtue of beating them in the tournament last year. So we've got that going for us.

I'm sure they will. But it won't be an elite big, look at the bigs they rushed to sign last year. I hope they work out but they were rated lower than Ibby Djimde. CC is not coming here, he wanted to go to FL, and we were his second pick, when they said no he leaned toward us, until he got an offer from any other school, and he has that now. CC is going to Michigan and watch how our fan base spins that the much lower rated player we eventually sign is a "much better fit." By the way, I hate that I'm going to be right.
I remembered it wrong. Well, I got nothing now :noidea:
It will be interesting to see how hard the staff pushes Kisunas for a commitment this weekend
Give up 92 points and 16 three's tells you something about Underwood's defense.
The ND-SFA tournament game is on YouTube, and I watched it recently. SFA's defense was intense and swarming; they seemed to double team every ND player. I was tired watching it. The announcers talked about a drill Underwood runs where the defense plays 4 on 5 and had to get two (or three, I forget) stops in a row to end it. He said sometimes it took 45 minutes. On the flip side, they didn't seem to get many shots off in the first seven seconds of a possession, and probably not due to ND's defense.
I have an aversion to the Big 12, so I didn't look for any OSU games, but they seemed quite different. It will be interesting to see what .Underwood makes the Illini into.
At least the worst case scenario is someone who doesn't want to be here. At least that's someone... :thumb:

Hah! Outstanding. I laughed. Out loud. All by myself in my den.

That's pretty obvious considering Kisunas is on campus and accelerated his visit to Illinois. So yes, I think this staff WILL get a big, and it'll be Kisunas.
Not really sure what to think about that. I'm not a guy that lives and dies on national rankings, but he's not heralded anywhere. He's big and seems pretty slowish. And he certainly doesn't seem like the kind of fit that Underwood is looking for in a big. But hey, the coaches have a better feel for these things than we do, so our only option is to let it ride.
I'm just afraid that we're going to be entering dangerous territory in a year or two in the front court, when we have nobody who even sniffed a top-100. We're going to be placing a lot of hope in guys like Spicy G to develop.
You are funny.
:thumb:You Sir, have a good memory.
Have you not seen this guy move? He can run and scrap.
For those of us that bet OSU against the spread, it was a magical, buzzer-beating Jawun Evans three for the "win". So there's that.
He most certainly isn't slow

Seriously, but I'm not surprised! Just two days ago this board had written Conditt off. Now, just one in-home and and a decommitt later, this board is back on board with Slim Jim!
Lbs, some of you guys on this board need to invest in a sturdy, more stable surf board, because a lot of you don't know how to ride these recruiting waves very well!
