On the court, off the court, or both?

Mainly the 2nd one
I would say freshman year Skyy looked a lot more like one of the top dogs in his class than the past couple years. I don’t think the injury limits his upside but it will push back his starting point when he gets to campus. Again I think he is 100% a take for Illinois and will develop into a useful player. But giving him the keys day 1 would be an awful decision in my humble opinion.
IDKWTI...can you please explain?

I believe it's required to prove your math. Factorials involved?
That's a damn shame. Hope he gets it figured out
Keep up, internet explorer

International ILL/INI
Math wise.... maybe.... close enough?.... 78%.... lol
Any possible risk to the program (other than him leaving) as a result of his poor decisions? Or are they all of a personal nature?
Sometimes the aau club doesn't have as much influence as assumed as well. Not to say we don't have that relationship any longer. I believe TSJ is one of those with a greater family inner circle vs former aau club.

Thanks for
Thanks for sharing your observations.
I doubt it. Think it’s mostly just Belo
That surprises me. Belo seems like a good kid. Wonder what he did off the court. Sad the concussion seems to have played a part?
It's not truly flat unless you can see the curvature of the earth. LOL
With all of the Guards and gifts that may transfer in to the Illinois program, we also are looking for bigger complementary pieces that will rebound well and score inside with COLEMAN HAWKINS and KOFI playing major roles to win the tournament and succeed in the regular season as well. ADRAME Diongue, YOHAN TRAORE, and other big forwards who are strong inside and can shoot the 18 footer are perfect for what this team could become in a year; where we have some experience in (at key positions), Hawkins should be a nice player that has multiple offensive skills and he knows how to play with Andre Curbelo and Adam Miller. KOFI has improved in getting the offense and skills, but he doesn't have to be 290lbs to dominate inside- if he will lose about 20-25 pounds, love to see how much quicker he could be and the impact he would make with some Big better FRONTLINE teammates.
@illini0440 thanks for the info and active involvement on the board. You make the off-season interesting . . . Even though I wish we were still playing. Thanks again!
Colonel Angus, is that you?
Not quite ready to push them all in? Honestly if we are talking a 3 leg parlay they should have at least given you some odds
Just me or does that statement seem loaded? Maybe reading into it too much. numbers game or a certain someone he may not have meshed with last year
Not a chance...maybe Duke, NC,Kty, or the SEC though...don't give up on the dream.

Really? I thought his highlight clip was about as good as any I have seen. Looked shifty, athletic, and had the ball on a string. I understand the athleticism may still be coming back after the knee injury, but I wouldn't think the handle would leave. What do you see?
I think it's more about a current player keeping the spot that Miller might take.
Wouldn't this line of reasoning say that the fans had no influence on Mark Turgeon leaving Maryland?
