There is nothing wrong about posting anything in this thread.
It is a lawless land of gummy bears and NIL revenue.

Two cents is Kofi is back. You don't announce the decision date and create the lead up if you're about to South Beach the fan base. Seems like a great NIL play for one more year. Regardless, wish him the best. All-time great!

The Galloping Ghost

Washington, DC
On Monday, we got the joy of another member of the new generation committing. Today, we get word that our two-time All-American is making an announcement, and the vibe around it is leaning towards him leaving. Just like the insiders said, this week really is shaping up to be a wild one. It's hard not to be nervous about a team post-Kofi, but I'm excited to see who else we bring in and how fast we play next season. This staff has proven they absolutely shouldn't be doubted.

Re David Jones, a friend who is a DePaul fan is convinced he’s going to St John’s to play with his good buddy Curbelo. I’m assuming this is coming from the DePaul fan forum. I’ve never heard he and AC were friends, but then again I’m not sure why I would have.

Jones commented on Curbelo's St John's commitment post saying Imagine if we played together 👀 or something like that.

He’s also rumored to be friends with RJ.

Y'all are so busy talking about Kofi, but I want to know who was telling Dan to change these threads to one per day, and who has enough pull and credibility that Dan would actually listen to them?

Or is Dan secretly the one with the most inside information on these boards? Is he the one insider to rule them all??

A meaningful tournament run for starters. Deon is the career leading scorer and rarely does he get mentioned in the immediate top tier of the Illini GOAT.
A meaningful T run says more about the team than an individual. Think Pete Maravich (zero NCAA appearances) Many other criteria to consider. Deon is 7th on the list of Illini player career points per game. Better Illini scorers than him, although he is great.

I judge by what they have done in college. If it’s overall work it’s Deron Williams. I don’t think it’s close.

Kofi’s time at Illinois can be compared to anyones if he comes back and has any level of success.
Deron is a good choice, but many other Illini with great careers.

I mean, I hope you're right but the fact that you have that cultural touchstone to reference demonstrates that it does actually happen...
