Yes, Garris was a perfect example of a "scoring point guard." Would be nice if Epps was that good.

Re Sencire Harris, I don't think he has quite the long arms and huge hands that Kendall had, but I still think he's a very good pickup. Like I said, I love his intensity.

Gill, at a generously listed 6'5, sometimes played the "3" in the NBA.

I think Gill had a pretty decent wingspan also.

Thinking about 2023. Epps and Boswell would be lethal on offense. A bit small on D, unless I’m wrong on sizes.

is Fears bigger than 6’0 now?

Heard a guy who played juco ball say they were at Parkland and his father had come to the game. The two of them were talking in the hallway outside of the locker room shortly after the game ended and Kendall walked through the hallway, I believe he was a HS Senior at the time and had come to see his brother play (I think...I dont even know if KG had a brother). Anyway, this guy's father father pointed at Kendall (who was very skinny, but the guy telling the story said his shoulders were well over 2x wider than his hips) and said "THAT is what a D1 athlete looks like." This guy was said he was offended at the time that his Dad was basically telling him he was inferior but said he knew his Dad was right!

Kendall definitely has a brother, one of his nephews was a really good ball player but just never had the motivation to do things necessary to play in school. Kendall was so fun to watch!

Keith is his brother. Played at Kankakee Community College and then at Missouri-Kansas City if I remember correctly. Kendall would occasionally come to Keith’s games in Kankakee. I shook hands with him one time and they are huge.

He was unique and the he joins will be better than Epps joins and his role will significantly different than the Kiwane stepped into. However if Epps duplicates Kiwane's freshman season I will be beyond ecstatic.

Lol. If Epps duplicates the best Illini freshman season most of us were alive for, I don't know if ecstatic is the right barometer.

We'll all likely be dead from the happiness.

Ty should do one of those announcements where he gets on the broadcast of the game at halftime and commits 😎
