He always plays with energy but his stats are way worse than I was expecting. 4.3 PPG, 3.2 AST, 1.4 TO with 42% FG percentage in only 17 minutes per game.

So Miller would have an interesting case in terms of eligibility. If he doesn’t have to sit, he would be a freshman, correct? Covid year and medical RS? 4 years to play 4. I wouldn’t expect he uses that all up but just a wild eligibility situation.

I figure that means if you transfer to Illinois you have to sit a year but if you go to a blue blood, you don't have to.

I hope that's not true. I'd prefer Miznoz not get any good players, though they will with Gates at the helm.
I'm with ya
Or, just "Never bash student athlete's".
A poster on the 247 board thinks Miller is going to DePaul. Lol

Not me, I want Braggin’ Rights to be electric again. I went for the first time this year, and it was awesome with a 60% full crowd (i.e., like zero Mizzou fans) … I literally cannot imagine how cool it is with a packed house.
With that said, I want Mizzou to be “good” but to NEVER beat us and I DEFINITELY do not want them getting a native Peorian who literally already played here once. Say no, Adam!
That would be better than Mizzery. I personally don't want to have to root against him every year for 2 to 4 yrs.
I know, it doesn’t make any sense but I guess anything is possible.
Probably not the right forum to post this, but I see Keegan Murray is entering the NBA draft. Not a fan of Iowa in any way, but he was enjoyable to watch when not playing the Illini. Hard to think he won't be a success in the League.
Always love your posts and breakdowns of historical Illini facts! Thank you for all of those and keep them coming. Can't believe this was the first Braggin' Rights game you've been to! You are a young one. The 80s games were unbelievable, the comeback the '89 team had to win over an awesome Mizzou team, one of best games I've ever seen. And I don't think I've ever been in a louder arena than when Kiwane Garris taking (and missing) the free throws at the end of the second OT of the 108-107 triple OT loss in 1993. What a heartbreaker because Kiwane played an awesome game (thank goodnesss there wasn't social media hate back then). It really is a very, very special rivalry that should never be relegated to a BTN or SEC network broadcast as it has been recently. Guessing with Dennis Gates coming in that we'll get back to the intense games a lot of us grew up on sooner than later.
The past couple days....
I can’t imagine BU having interest in him. I feel like he is terrible on the defensive end.
BU would love 13 guys expecting to play....that's what the BigBoys deal with in most years.
I think Oe Toussaint is ok on D but pretty one dimensional on offense.
Just discovered the origin to your username the other day. Gold stuff.

I mean it would also make sense. Not sure why it would be laughed at. He left here because he wanted to be the man which he would be there. Closer to home as well.
Makes more sense than coming back if you look at it without orange glasses tbf
Yeah I guess your right, it kind of does make sense. He would be the PG as well.

DePaul always comes up as a possible transfer target for Chicago kids, but Ace is from Peoria so the bolded part doesn't apply to him.
