Kylan Boswell's Mom is going to be a bit tougher sell when it comes to choosing IL over AZ. Mom's that are a major part of their boy's life want to be at the games. I remember Dee Brown's Mom (Maywood, IL) in the stands a bunch, but I also remember Deron William's Mom (Texas) in the stands a lot too. IL athletic dept has to make this part work.

The Boswell's moved from Champaign to AZ with Kylan for basketball reasons. There is really no reason to think they would stay in AZ while he comes to Illinois.

Boswell is the type of recruit we need to land to keep competing for titles. I'd be shocked if we ever got to the Kentucky/Duke level of bringing in multiple 5☆ per class but we need to be able to lock down 5☆ talent when they've got real ties to the program. Finally we actually have a great program to sell - time to capitalize on it

Minor quibble: the Boswells moved to southern California (LA area) for Kylan's freshman year. No idea if they followed him to AZ. They'll almost certainly be moving back home if Kylan chooses us.

Frazier, Grandison, and Williams won't. There will be plenty of minutes to be had, especially if you look at how we've used our guards.

Maybe you meant Frazier, Plummer, and Williams? They are super seniors.

Grandison has a super senior year available. Dunno if he'll be invited back or even will want to return. .

Note that super senior seniors will count next year, and there is no obligation to bring them back.

Also, I count 12 scholarship players eligible to return and 3 signed, so the roster for 2022/23 is fluid.

Especially when you're averaging an almost triple-double in HS.....and your not some 7 foot, 5-star, 1-and-done Blue Blood Burger Boy superstar.

Rodgers is gonna just absolutely ROCK the college basketball game!!!

When Kofi leaves, I wonder if BU will want to go back to his spread offense that Giorgi flourished in. Some guys on the roster and guys coming in could really fit in well at that pinch post. Dainja, Rogers, and Hawkins could do some damage there. I could see RJ doing work on the pinch post as well.

Then again, if Belo comes back and has a good offseason the gameplan will probably be to have the ball in his hands as much as possible.
