So Epps goes to G Town only for Rowan Brumbaugh to commit tonight … Interesting …
Likely an even smaller role than he would’ve had here …
That portal sure is something …

I think he gets minutes as an energy/spark guy no matter who they bring in at what positions. I don't think his role is defined by a number/position. There's always going to be room for him, and he's always going to be limited because of how he plays.wonder how sencire feels about this….
My personal hope is Underwood gets the three point shooting under control next season. Not quite so many. More emphasis on driving and passing. I expect him to add a PG and a big, so maybe that's the plan. My other hope is Goode and Domask account for about 2/3 of the team's three point attempts.RayJ is a nice player who could really help us, but the trio of Domask, Harmon, and RayJ would strike me as extremely strange, for the lack of targeting a truly knock-down outside shooter.
All three of them have spent their college careers as volume scorers, as has TSJ, and we're hypothetically going to stick them all together on the same team with marginal at best jump shooting around them?
I don't quite get it.
Do you believe everything that is posted on the internet or on twitter?There was just a post a little while ago saying Tyger may opt to play pro ball in Europe. Deleted now but it appeared to be a UCLA "insider".
Like the 2 that played a bunch and stuck around this year?? Or Adam Miller after starting every game as a freshman??Over the long term.
Play young players and risk them leaving after the year, or buy up one-and-done mercenaries and guarantee it.
whos buck?1. He’s not a point guard
2. Doesn’t really matter how he feels. Staffs job is to build the best roster possible and if that moves Buck down to 8 or 9th in the rotation so be it
Maybe because your a pessimist?Why do I feel like Harmon is being added as an expected TSJ replacement?
If TSJ left, Illinois would have a big chunk of NIL to throw at a top-tier portal replacement. Harmon commitment—a solid piece who won’t break the bank—seems to me to suggest that the staff expects TSJ to return.Why do I feel like Harmon is being added as an expected TSJ replacement?
Miller started every game on a 1 seed tourney team...... Was set up to be in the driver seat for the next few yearsLike the 2 that played a bunch and stuck around this year?? Or Adam Miller after starting every game as a freshman??

If TSJ ends up leaving, there will be some huge names who withdraw from the draft and enter the portal… and Brad will be able to throw money at them like NLs throw themselves at Pru. It’ll be okay!
NLs, NIL. Man, now I'm confused.If TSJ left, Illinois would have a big chunk of NIL to throw at a top-tier portal replacement. Harmon commitment—a solid piece who won’t break the bank—seems to me to suggest that the staff expects TSJ to return.

man I love dra, he's a great story and would be such a good scoring guard off the bench, rn I see him as the backup 1I wonder if Dra gibbs lawhorn stays, he’s talented but i don’t see any minutes for him
It’s not.Why do I feel like Harmon is being added as an expected TSJ replacement?
This is not how NIL works. We don't have a salary cap we can distribute as we'd wish. You have to find people to pay the players, the school can't.If TSJ left, Illinois would have a big chunk of NIL to throw at a top-tier portal replacement.

Functionally it absolutely *is* how it works — see @illini0440 post a few pages ago (edit: post #428).This is not how NIL works. We don't have a salary cap we can distribute as we'd wish. You have to find people to pay the players, the school can't.

Never said I believed it. I trust our insiders and when it comes to Tyger it seems they are all on the same page.Do you believe everything that is posted on the internet or on twitter?
And play minutes when Dain has his usual foul trouble.Even if he isn't going to play much, you still need a guy to go up against Dain in practice every day.
It's partially how it works now. There are many different things that can happen, but collectives give the schools a virtual salary pool;This is not how NIL works. We don't have a salary cap we can distribute as we'd wish. You have to find people to pay the players, the school can't.
With no one staying 4 years any more, redshirts seem outdated. Why would you redshirt just to improve a player for someone else? Every year is all-in for right now.Potential redshirt … Brad likes the kid … Thinks he’s got an edge to him …
Dra knows he needs Fletched …
whos buck?
