Yes. TL;DR (literally) it's.mentioned on Twitter and in the IL basketball thread. Epps followed Tipton, Andrew Slater hinted at it and Epps removed IL from his bio.Maybe I missed this at some point, but is it expected that Epps is leaving?

Easy post to miss. I don’t think that’s was talked about or mentioned on page 32 of the 119 pages other pages where it was all that was talked about.
Man I really hate the new college basketball landscape
Not sure we want him. High volume low percentages. Think Matt Mayer with even less upside.

TJ has eligibility left?Wheeler would be good pickup. He was injured a lot at Ky.
I agree. I rarely have inside info on recruiting, but I live in Bloomington and know several ISU boosters. The consensus was, he wanted to go to Illinois. He would really have helped us.Looking back, I personally preferred Nance to Mayer. I preferred both to Antonio Reeves. At the end of the season, Reeves may have been the best choice.
Please read post #76.Sorry for being naive, but do we have any shot at Caleb Love?

Sahvir Wheeler in the portal….Any interest and should there be?
I have a friend who is a UNC fan. He is very happy to finally see him leave lol
Hard pass, nope, we good! Plus hate to say it Dennis Gates is gonna be a Hugeeeee problem for us. Man recruits , Darn Good Coach, and mizzou throwing stacks around like Halloween candy. I hope he gets hired by Texas!
LOL @ Nance for leaving Northwestern for UNC!!!!!!! It sounded like a smart move, but was it ever the wrong way to go!
Maybe I missed this at some point, but is it expected that Epps is leaving?
I hope not Epss score over 300pts. And he didn't " OD" on Monster energy drinks supposedly. Epps is a bulldog and should be an Illini for 3 more years!
Not if he doesn’t listen, doesn’t put in extra work and is a poison in the locker room. Don’t get me wrong. Epps was a good offensive player at times. Especially for a freshman. Wish him luck.I hope not Epss score over 300pts. And he didn't " OD" on Monster energy drinks supposedly. Epps is a bulldog and should be an Illini for 3 more years!
CHIEF, I agree but I do trust Coach Chet and Anderson to bring in the bad boyz! I have concerns about coach Alexander none of his player work out. Bring me a hire of x' and o's for the Genaral, Aka Coach Underwood. Love em. We've seen it. Curbelo jumping in his arms, etc.It seems our targets in the portal are 1. Shooting 2. PG ability 3. Buckets generally, with buckets moving further up the list if Shannon isn't back.
If Hawkins doesn't come back I wonder if we start looking for size as well.
I believe that a veteran PG is first and foremost as we have better shooters than we have shown if we have a floor leader who can get the ball to said shooters in the right shooting position. Then we look for a shooter second and depending on Hawk, a PF/C to back up Dain. It’s been proven time and time again that solid guard play wins games and we were vulnerable last year due our guard youth.It seems our targets in the portal are 1. Shooting 2. PG ability 3.

Ideally you address PG and outside shooting in the same player. Multi-year eligibility plus experience would be the ultimate wish list.I believe that a veteran PG is first and foremost as we have better shooters than we have shown if we have a floor leader who can get the ball to said shooters in the right shooting position.
