The quicker we secure our assistant coaches the better! Lets go!

Ah, the second season.....the recruiting/transfer(free agency)/speculation time of year. Should be interesting.

"Sooo… Don’t believe the “Rumors” I’m locked in… 10 Toes down
ILL-I-N-I… Let’s Re-LOAD and do it again…"

It is finally time to build momentum. We have a great foundation. I'm so excited to see what our roster looks like this next season.

Welcome Skyy Clark.

That is really an awesome post to read by coach Anderson. So glad you and your family love being part of the program and community. And so glad to have you back! Thank you for all you are doing to make Illinois basketball so successful. It is not lost and it is so appreciated by all of Illini Nation's diehard fans.

Hardest part of today is knowing we have about 220 days until we get to see the Illini play again. But who is counting...

In the older recruiting post, after looking through the current players in the portal, Fardaws Aimaq looks like a great piece if Kofi was to leave. Saw elsewhere Kentucky has already reached out.

Just my opinion here, but I think this might be the biggest and best recruiting news we could hope for this offseason. If it really has already been put to bed, that's huge....what the big fella decides to do is a close 2nd.

I suppose if your chance was 0%, and it stays at 0%, nothing has changed.

Find it hard to believe TA has zero impact on skyy recruitment. Might not make it a zero chance for Louisville, but hard to believe skyy and TA don’t have a relationship that would affect recruiting in some capacity…

 

[LvilleILL]

We will be better!!!

If things fall the way I expect, I would agree with this. We will have better slashers and finishers around the rim with good 3 point shooting. We were way too one dimensional this year

Could maybe say 2 dimensional, when our shots were falling from the outside. But really need to get to 3D to be a real threat

Was just about to say...

Whitman got the job done … We don’t give him enough credit. BU says he wants something done, Whitman does everything he can to get it done.

The rumors will keep flying, but Brad’s relationship with Josh is going to be hard to get anywhere else.

The rumors wouldn’t be flying around our coaches if we weren’t doing something right … No one was beating the door down for John Groce or Dustin Ford
