It's not Illinois from what I'm gathering.

Hopefully he doesn't miss as many tip dunks
He's likely headed back to Toledo after he pulls out of the draft.
Yep, some of these 1st team all conference mid major guys area damn good and under valued.
I recall people not thinking Ben Vanderplaust and Jordan Clarkson were not that good even though they were all conference since they come from mid majors and guess what. They are damn good. Norte Dames new coach is on him and he beat our squad 3x this year. In BU I trust.
And this is why these boards are tricky, mixing generations and forms of sarcasm. So much is taken literally when meant to be be light hearted

Tubby Smith?? Warthog beat me to it.
Didn't we just do this?
Stop listening in on my conversations!
Santa Clara always gets those guys
Yep, Podz and I wish he has stayed too and he may have if RJ wasn't here then too! We have minutes and shooting needs now since they they left.
I know
battle89 wrote a better version of the same joke - I wish Podz had stuck here too but it worked out better for him (us, not so much in hindsight).
Walt Frazier would like a word with you.

Where to begin?
1. That’s very Zen and all…I don’t buy it. Sorry. Not everyone is Steph Curry…and not all basketball is the way certain NBA teams play. Even good 3 pt shooters often still miss 60 percent of the time. You can still be confident and choose to follow your shot. Good shooters miss long or short.
2. Ever hear of long rebounds? Depends where you are on the court…Good shooters have the advantage of knowing where the ball might come off the rim possibly better than anyone else since they are the ones who shot it.
3. Depends on a lot of things…what kind of scheme is your team employing? Are you a 5 or are you a shooting guard? You might need your 5 in the paint after the shot…How many players does your coach have designated to crash the boards? How many does he designate to get back on D? If you’re lighting it up from the deep corner that’s different than the top of the key.
Are you falling back into a zone or a man?
Are you picking up from the basket out?
How is your team getting organized after the shot goes up. It all matters.
Nothing destroys team play like chucking up shot after shot and trotting back down the court. That’s YMCA ball.

, Ty, TSJ, Hawk, DDLuke (with possibly more minutes than DD), SMFH, and Hansberry off the bench
Hell yes, I’m ok giving up a roster spot for a MVC All Conference First teamed joining that group to try to crack the rotation.
If TSJ or Hawkins doesn’t come back, then you dramatically increase your odds of landing a big time replacement, and have the spot for them.
I sure hope to God he's coming off that bench.
Hey, he’s got the same cons as me!
Yep, I think the valley all star cast off team would be damn good. Lead by a more athletic version of Larry Bird.
Fun fact he was 2019 Mr. Basketball in Wisconsin.
