He will replace Teddy Allen’s 40 shots a game there next year

They can't punt on both rides this year. 1 is *hopefully* going to Kofi. If not, I'd assume there would be an additional big man. There are currently 3 open rides for 2022, which already includes Bass and Harris on the roster. So that would be a 5 man class with no additional turnover. Room for 6 if Belo goes to the league, or a guy like BBV moves on.
I’m sure they would prefer to leave a spot or 2 open for high level transfers, although in today’s game you could probably just bank on 2 or 3 guys moving on naturally after each year

Hopefully some people can now understand why Brad was in Alabama watching Epps yesterday instead of being in Atlanta following Kofi around all day…

Cliffmas was a dark, dark day.
Would be surprised . . . we were so late to the game, lots of ground to make up. Wisconsin has been in early. Not sure why we waited so long on him.

Maybe...but Wiscy is also going through some things right now with Gard.

Agree . . and probably gives us a shot. Don't know why anyone would go to Wisky now . . that team (and Iowa) are on downturn imo.

Thank you for all the information you guys provide. Nothing is ever 100% accurate for the reasons you provide in your post. Ignore the clowns here that know nothing but are quick to nit pick when you happen to be wrong. Again thanks.

Insider info is a snapshot. Things can go south very, very quickly. Anyone banking on insider info is a fool. That said, I appreciate the nuggets and truly believe most of it is pretty accurate (depending on the source, naturally).
Insiders have been accurate or close enough for me to believe they are being fed correct information. But as much as everyone hates the phrase, recruiting really is fluid. Things can change on a dime. I still trust them but I also know not to take anything as certain until the ink is dry.

Sorry, I replied to this before reading the rest of the thread. Didn't mean to repeat what has already been posted.

I think that new NIL rules are going to level the playing field, but I think I overestimated how quickly that might happen. Kentucky could go all to those guys who gave money to Anthony Davis and immediately get them wired into the new system. It's obviously going to take a bit longer for U of I and we may have some growing pains. Hopefully we'll catch up.
It's as if they legalized cocaine tomorrow. If I wanted to open a shop, I'd be at a disadvantage to all the guys who have already established supply chains.
