If you want to join the giffing party it’s pretty easy actually. When you create a post, click on the word “GIF” and then start typing in some keywords. Some suggestions will pop up and you just click on one (you can scroll down to your hearts content too). The only part that’s not as obvious is that you have to close the GIF box to get out so you can see if it worked before posting.

Pru is probably a stand up guy. Have Dan make a Gif thread. Idc. But when I’m here for recruiting news, I don’t want to have to sift through 6 pages of gifs. My opinion means squat, though. And this is a free country
@LvilleILL @illini0440 @Indy Illini Fan run this page

This site is for information, exchange of ideas, and entertainment. You can always choose to block a user you don't like or agree with for your convenience. I like the distraction Pru provides in a forum that often takes itself way to serious. There's not a lot going on at the moment. IF THERE IS RECRUITING NEW THAT IS CONFIRMED you will find it on the home page and can easily link to it. Until then.... lighten up!

But he hasn't proven that. I hope he can and quickly. Otherwise this decision to leave is going to have an opportunity cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars over the next two years. I hope he made the correct choice for himself and his family. I fear he didn't and that could be very sad to not take the sure thing. Either way it's his life and I pray to God it works out for him. I didn't want him back because of our team. I know he passed on an amazing opportunity to be millionaire for sure if he had stayed 2 years. At least he was on an amazing path to be set financially for sure for the rest of his life. The Illini Basketball program will be fine regardless. I love Kofi actually have on my King Kofi T shirt now. I'm thankful we had him three years. I just pray he made the right decision to be a wealthy man for sure. Hopefully he did. He certainly made a massive bet on himself. Now let's go add another big man. His hard work and success will help BU do just that. Go Illini.

We weren't talking about Kofi. OP asked if there was any high school players his size and strength but could shoot. The answer is no because that's an NBA all-star you are looking for.

Might as well just add it to all of our forum signatures so everyone is clear we are sharing our opinions and are not, in fact, Brad Underwood.

And the truth is, sometimes BU only knows what a recruit & his circle have told him, not what that recruit is actually going to do. But I’m sure he has an opinion, too. 😀

Send a man a GIF, enable him to entertain for a moment.

Teach a man to GIF, enable him to torment the anti-GIF Loyalty curmudgeons for a lifetime.

I am fine with that approach and my glass his half full too, however it is just not full of orange Kool aid. Hawk went from 23 to 29 percent this year and was trending the right direction. That's a long way from being where he needs to be or in par with Nance or a threat that the original post implied. Which by the way many posters do. I would be Uber excited if Hawk could evolve into Brian Cook 2.0 as a shooter. He just isn't like Cook or Nance in that regard and at times it's stated that some of are players numbers are better than they really are because we love them and our ILLINI.

I'm tired of these Hawkins isn't on par with Nance posts. Nance was 26 and 29 percent from 3 his freshman and sophomore years. CoHawk was 23 and 29.
We are a developmental program and CoHawk is on progress to match or exceed Nance.

I'm not a big GIF guy either. If you add a very small style sheet to your browser (via preferences), it will hide all GIFs. If you want to view it, click on the dead space. Only "problem" is that you won't have the ability to designate the sites you don't want the style sheet enabled (IOW, you can't turn it off). Here's the style sheet:

@charset "UTF-8";

img[src*=".gif"], [style^="background-image:"][style*=".gif"] {
opacity: 0 !important;
}

img[src*=".gif"]:active {
opacity: 1 !important;
}
