Jalen Cook of LSU is now added to the transfer portal.

He must have heard Adam was coming.

Waiting on Krutwig's decision ./s

 

[DB11Headband]

Storr will be top 50 before it’s all said and done.

 

[Joel Goodson]

Strong a$$ offer.

Huge in terms of stability of next years team. With all the new faces and unknowns we need a couple steady guys and he will be one

Bass clip (no fishin' jokes, please!):

He's gonna have to drop the domination theatrics right quick when he gets to CU, I reckon.

I think after he gets stuffed a few times in practice and his pocket picked, he will learn a little modesty, playing with the big dogs now.

The dunk at :30 is filthy.

Obviously it’s a highlight, but at :40 taking advantage of a mismatch on the block shows some semblance of IQ.

My one critique, could have sold me a bit more on the theatrics.

 

[Joel Goodson]

Plummer seems like a college version of Downtown Freddy Brown, aka "The Microwave" (hey, I'm old). A lot more than just a shooter too.

Definitely not a drama queen.

I think after Bass gets stuffed and flounders when things are on the line, he'll see what's in storr and get hooked playing with the big fish now.

FIFY

 

[Highlander]

So if we fielded a team of Kofi, Frazier, Curbelo, Plummer, and Melendez would our official team meal be chicken, rice and beans?

Careful... talk like that got Fuzzy in trouble at the Masters.

Not old enough.......Vinnie Johnson of the Pistons was "The Microwave".

Fred Brown.......was "Downtown Freddie Brown".....Supersonics.

3 Star? Lol

Not bad for a guy that didn't start at Compass HS.

Doh!

 

[POWURR]

If the love of the Illini is our beating heart....overreaction is the blood it pumps through our veins.

And the Oscar goes to...

 

[812Jamie]

Not sure if this goes in recruiting or looking ahead...

With one scholly left and all the discussion on Miller or Plummer, is Tre Mitchell no longer a thing?

 

[Old Dude]

Not bad for a guy that didn't start at Compass HS.

The few games I watched he didn't even play half the game.

 

[RedRocksIllini]

Highlight clip: Bass does very good things. Unfortunately, he has a penchant for taunting. That's going to have to be corrected. Not at all concerned, FWIW.

ugh, more puns? Aren't we better than that?

Seriously, tho, really appreciate you folks posting the videos of the future O&B. It's a little tough right now seeing a lot of the guys from this very special group that was the 20-21 Illini moving on but seeing what the future has in store is very encouraging. And while I'm certainly not "better than that", I promise no more fish puns.
