Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

nope the ship has sailed

The right decision, in my book. Short term gains not worth losing Epps over. Yeah, our frosh guards are going to have fits and starts. So what? Let 'em play.

The opportunity cost of transferring now (first time) is super low. Gotta respect it.

Nance is much better than a late-night BM!

You knew too much about my post and where it was coming from. Just thought I’d get some people a lil more excited lol

Meh. Clark is a star and, barring injury, might be the most talented person on the team. I'd argue he's more of a Captain Marvel... but, you know, a guy version.

Iron Man is my personal favorite, plus iron man was injured before becoming an avenger and dare i say he has plenty of style

Patience is a virtue, but you won’t have to wait long.

T-3 hours and counting.

27 hrs and counting

Curbelo was Captain Marvel.
How in the ##@#$ did he do that?
Why in the (*(*&&*^ did he do that?

Wouldn't curbelo be more like a wizard ala dr. Strange?

 

[TheFameProtector]

I would love someone to be called Hawkeye...

Can only be Hawkins.

He was straight up chaos magic.
So... Scarlet Witch.

Why would you cut a 12 man team to final 13..?

It's pretty standard for what it's worth. Keeps a body present incase someone gets hurt and allows you to work in your rotations while everyone stays intense.

 

[Poe's Law]

didn’t have the measurables to be a Clipper?

 

[One Man Fast Break]

Grandison supposedly has been in contact with Duke... I'll still root for him, but that will make it harder. lol

That would be an incredible opportunity. Would be happy for him.

Rolling 2 when we already have Lieb on Scholarship and Dainja, Clark, Rodgers, Epps and Harris are all 100% unproven at the collegiate level makes me nervous... I'd hate to think in February "man, I just wish we had 1 more rotation-worthy player, even a backup that could give you 15 MPG"...

Highly doubt we'll be rolling 2.

 

[Illini92and96]

Pruman probably will.

 

[doowink]

Pruman probably will.

Just as long as we're rolling baby!

 

[Orangetool]

Nance is coming

 

[Joel Goodson]

Nance is coming

That would be good.

I agree. I think it would be foolish. We started out last season w/ 14 scholarship players and we were still shorthanded at points during the season.
