In my humble opinion this might go down as Illinois' best class since 2002. I just see so much potential in all 3 of these guys. Rodgers is just a grown man already, Epps can light up the scoreboard and Harris has so much potential.

If you don't have any comments, gifs, or pics of necks, why don't you just keep it to yourself. What do you think this is, a recruiting thread?

Totally unrelated to recruiting, but I got to see two giraffes fighting while I was in Kenya a couple weeks ago. It was the most boring fight I'd ever seen.

If your looking for someone to take Trents role as a defender and the Damonte role with better scoring. I think we have it in Rodgers.

Isn't Rodgers somewhat taller than those two? In the 6-6 or 6-7 range. I've been perceiving him as a 3 (at the college level) based on film I've seen of him. About the size of Luke, without the three point shooting but more athletic explosiveness. I guess if he plays as a wing, it would be fair to call him a guard or small forward.

my first thought is Darrin Ames. Ayo's dad is an assistant coach on his team. Though I kinda think it is donation related.

Ames current stats are 20.8 ppg, 1.1 rbg, 5.3 apg, 2.8 spg shooting 65% from the field, 51% from 3, and 87% on FTs.

I don't know enough about him. What level of competition is he playing against?

Brad's offense past 2 years has had 1 person in the paint (King Kofi) and 4 shooters. Grandison and DaMonte have been playing PF for us. Depending on whether Rogers can hit the outside shot he will either be in the paint as undersized 5 or play PF. We definitely will need him to play PF on defense. With DaMonte and Grandison graduating there are a lot of minutes opening up next year. I hope Coleman, Dainja, Omar and RJ step up but the opportunity is there for Ty. He could become our Draymont Green.

If he develops outside shot- similar role to Roger Powell
