Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

I think this is a plus get for a pwo...

 

[IllinoisssssssVarsity]

Seen him play a bunch…solid player on possibly best team in state. Really solid all around and really nice outside shot. DefinItely skilled but more likely division II or smaller division I. Hustle and good character kid as well. Stats are deceiving as all 5 starters on Glenbard West are going to be Division I next year. Great PWO.

I’m just here to point out how ridiculous that is (in a good way).

I would add Dainja to that list...

Have you seen Dainja play? If so, what kind of game has he got?

I saw another article elsewhere and he thanked Hamer outside of his hs and aau coaches..how have I missed him as a a coach or who is he?

DMFW is shooting 40% from 3pt. ...after 55% last year...and is not the focal point of our offense. Because he doesn't have to be.

He is shooting 50% from three in conference games. Without Kofi and Belo he was put into different roles.

My fear with Boswell is I don’t believe he has taken an “official” visit here and he is about to decide…

 

[DICKnaggie]

Can Someone enlighten me....PWO???

Preferred walk on?

 

[TCTORNADO]

And 10-41 (.244) from 2 pt.

 

[doowink]

Preferred walk on?

Ahah....Thanks DN.

 

[Ga65]

And 10-41 (.244) from 2 pt.

Yeah, he has tried Belo’s 10’ turnaround without much success. 4/18 in conference for twos.

2022 6' 3", VG motor and shooter. Gotta be a PWO, but not confirmed.

Is PWO a thing in basketball? I thought basketball, unlike football, was either scholly or walk-on. If PWO is a thing for basketball, anyone know how that is different from a regular walk-on?

We asked you to sit on the end of the bench instead of you asking us if you can sit on the end of the bench.

On the bright side, when you do get in the game, the crowd is 100% on your side and wants every ball to go to you.

from what little I gleaned surfing the pwo topic , it seems the pwo only applies to FB..........I didn't do an in depth research like Fighter or others do but I never found any info on pwo pertaining to BB.....It's scholly or walk-on....

I kinda think the opposite. Preferred walk on just means that you're not going to get a scholarship but the coach is guaranteeing you a spot on the team as opposed to trying out.

Not sure what it all means for the training table etc.

He's a '23 recruit.
