Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

Nope

I am guessing AJ Griffin coming back to fulfil his brothers broken commitment

I really think people are underestimating the impact the concussion and missing all time during the season had on Belo. He had some bright spots, but didn't look like the same player he was last year.

I've got a lot of lingering effects from one about 3 years ago. No fun. Then adding covid on top of it... Don't count him out.

Cripes, there’s so many fake accounts I can’t remember which ones are real anymore.

Lmao if its him will the Orange Krush quit boooing him

 

[HailtotheChief]

Hmm, what other obvious player could it be? Burnett? Hopkins?

Liberty?

Why do people tweet at players? Especially negative stuff. Let them make their own decisions. They don’t make your decisions for you. Good reply from Adam.

I think the mystery transfer is Scotty Pippen, Jr., coming to the state where his dad made his mark.

Close, it's Scottie Pippen Sr. He's broke again and needs some of that sweet sweet NIL money.

I hope we can recruit Kofi some great NIL deals and he can make big $$$$ , stay with our ILLINI, and develop his game to the point he can stick in the NBA. This season he became a better passer, got better in the post, hit a few 15 foot shots and didn't take many, shot FTs a bit better, and improved overall. He still needs work but if he can generate more cash here than the G league and improve then why not stay another year? Kofi seems like a great guy and I wish him the best either way.

Would like to see Curbelo stay if he can cut down the turnovers and get a jump shot. If we lose him and don't get Skyy Clark, that really only leaves a true freshman at point guard. Ouch! Excited about the freshman class. Especially Rodgers and Epps for now. I think Harris has tons of potential. Will be very interesting to see how Kofi and Dainja (?) play together and if Payne sticks around (if Kofi stays). I think no matter what this team needs to become more athletic with more size in the backcourt. Give me some more Gill, Anderson, Battle teams. Athletes. My two cents.

What about guys like Lieb, BBV, seems more logical for them to find a place where they could get more playing time.

Or mystery transfer could be AJ Griffin. Coach K gone and he’s out of there.

Dj steward.

We all know it’s EJ Liddel

 

[Piasa]

Liberty?

That was my guess. It would take special circumstances to hint you might like to transfer to Illinois midway through your current season.

 

[Illiniguy13]

It’ll be quite apparent when he enters the portal.

Hopkins makes a lot of sense, he didn’t get much tick this year, we were in deep with him & our relationship with Kentucky is getting stranger by the day.

Chester Burnett? Lightning Hopkins? Damn, we’re putting together a blues band.

DJaxx finally makes it official

Nope

AG?

 

[Baskins Tiger]

Adam Miller looks to be hitting stride in his Twitter video. Would be a great get if he came back.

[Heisenbobble]

I have no idea what's going on.
