Listened to a podcast recently. TA says Dainj is as much a one and done as anyone on the roster.

I'm hoping Nance pulls out of the draft and we land him.
Are there any others that folks have heard we are talking to as a back up plan should Nance stay in the draft or God forbid go elsewhere?
Also hoping ScuMs Diabate and Houston stay in.

I think Houstan will stay in the draft. If Diabate returns to Michigan, Nance will not be going there (if he pulls out of the draft)… so it might not be the worst thing.
If we get Nance is Coleman still ok to transfer without sitting a year? Obviously we'll take 1 year of Nance over 1 year of Hawk but it would still feel like we're doing Cole a bit dirty to me.
This is an updated list of who is in, who is out, and who is still undecided.
Houstan should stay in … Likely 1st rounder

Well I heard TA said he is absolutely a one and done and that he's a more athletic Larry Bird.
You're selling Dainja a bit short. *More athletic Michael Jordan

I think Coleman would still start if we got Nance. He would be the 5 and Nance the 4.
So trying to add talent and better your team is doing a player dirty? I’m glad our coaches don’t have that mindset. And I doubt any successful coach does.
We really need another PF/C. Would be foolish to not add one if we are able.

I cannot fathom how Illinois does not make this list!

most of them start with "this team's ranking is based on a returning core of..." and since we don't have a returning "core", they don't rate us.
Shannon-Skyyy-Mayer-Hawk-Nance looks like a top 10 starting 5 to me.
Oh, then add a top 5 bench in the country as …

He’s 22 … I’d be surprised if he doesn’t stay in.
Hawkins would not be starting …
More like Skyy, RJ, TSJ, Mayer, Nance
Bringing Hawkins, Dainja, Epps, Rodgers, Goode, Harris off the bench. Whoever earns the minutes.
That’s a top 5 team, I don’t care what any media outlet says.
