Absolutely. When guys like Joshua Primo are getting drafted in the first round, hard to think how Kofi can't land in the back half of the second to a playoff contender.

I was kind of wondering the same, especially as the season progresses. I’ll be curious to see how things shake out by the end of the season. Who do you all think will gain the most minutes from where they start at the beginning of the year?

This is a very good point. As someone else mentioned, finding a solid back up PG, that is more interested in a great master's degree than going pro, could be the ticket.
I'm counting on like 8th man minutes from Epps as a True Freshman based on where he falls on Recruiting Sites Rankings and will be pleasantly surprised with anything in excess of that.
Well said.
Tough to get more exposure — at least positive exposure — if sitting on the bench. I wouldn’t mind getting an experienced point guard, but I’ll be very surprised if they get one who will add much to the team. I guess we’ll see.

Yes it was in jest didn’t understand putting his name out there and saying zero minutes. My apologies to Mr Lieb and this board.

Yeah…but it’s for poops & giggles my friend!! It’s fun to speculate.
If it’s not for you, that’s ok, we all love da Nogs!!! We can still be friends
Not likely. Either find somebody not as good (but good enough, e.g., Plummer) who is willing to back up or a star that you are willing to take away mins from others. Or, nobody.
Even professional prognosticators are often wrong in a wide variety of fields. So why do people do it? Why do people get paid to do it? Why do people listen to it/read about it? Could it be that people have fun with predicting and debating predictions while we anxiously await whatever it is we're prognosticating about (be that sports, politics, entertainment, stocks etc.)?
I kind of tune out the majority of these projected minutes breakdowns because they're not really my jam but I get why people get into them. It's something to do and obsess about while we wait for the games.

What if I told you this is all a simulation?
What if I then told you the simulation was being run by Indy Illini Fan, 0440, and LvilleILL, and that we are all pawns in their personal chess game of predictions?
Sam McLaurin started every game for Coastal Carolina in 2012. 30mpg, 10ppg, 7.rpg
for Illinois in 2013 he started 15. 20mpg, 3.8 ppg, 3.4 rpg.
For guys playing in lower division 1 schools, the attraction of suiting up for a top twenty team in one of the best conferences in America with a chance to play in the second weekend is pretty cool. Not sure if that guy is out there at PG, but I'm guessing one is.
I'm comfortable not adding someone since the addition of Shannon. Grandy returning would give me a bit more comfort.

What if I told you that Indy Illini Fan, 0440 and LvilleILL are just part of a simulation run by Dan. Us casual lurkers are just victims of a simulation run by a simulation to get more internet hits.What if I told you this is all a simulation?

Dip your nuggets in my staff source sauce.
I think everyone should quit worrying about how many minutes everyone is going to play. Especially since there are players listed that is not even on the team!! I been a Illini fan since 1965 and I get sometimes so frustrated with the stupidity of our fan base
^^
lol yeah I think I'll let Coach Underwood worry about that. There's a reason why he's making the big bucks.
IN UNDERWOOD I TRUST
GO ILLIN!I
Might be a bit longer wait for nance.
I was wondering what Lville was alluding to last night...or was he manipulating the populace of this board...simulationly speaking...What if I told you this is all a simulation?
