Why do we call drivers woods...?

I volunteer to be one of those options.
We’re all big Yuri Collins fans now
Glad I never convinced myself RayJ was ever coming here after the Utah drama was done.
What are our backup options besides Yuri or is it definitely him?
Go back and look. This was my opinion when Yuri was first mentioned as a possibility. But, thanx for your deep analysis.
Actually only the 1 wood was called a driver. The 2 wood was called a brassie and the 3 wood a spoon. You're welcome
This is spot on. The gifs have been going since mid April, which is what's driven people to this point. If RayJ goes to Baylor, it's extremely reasonable. If CH and TSJ stay in the draft because they feel like they want to start their pro careers, again, it's extremely reasonable.
Our insiders pass on the info they get. That doesn't make it gospel. They provide the information that they have, but short of these players being controllable robots, things change. There's a world of opportunity out there and though we'd all like to believe it, those opportunities don't begin and end in Champaign.
Probably been covered here but I missed it. This article from end of March doesn't sound like NCAA is an option? https://247sports.com/Article/Saint...-Draft-forgo-remaining-eligibility-207616845/
This whole RayJ situation gives me Skyy Clark vibes. Far too much drama, and seemingly waffling, with this one. If its not Illinois lets make it quick and get it over with.
What was once 3 is now 2 or less
That's usually the driver...thx for information...
Again, you mention THIS team. What's our roster look like? What did it look like yesterday? Are TSJ and CH on the roster? Are they not? I have news for you, if CH nor TSJ come back, if Yuri Collins is out PG.... we're not going to be good. We'd have, well, zero proven scorers and at that point, a PG who really doesn't shoot the ball well. If TSJ and CH come back, your opinion has merit.
FLAGLER STAYING IN NBA DRAFT
He got the guarantee he was looking for this afternoon …
Malachi Smith still an option? Agree on Yuri, small guard. I rather try to get a combo guard to run the point that is closer to 6-4/6-5. During the NCAA tourny you need these athletic multidimensional scoring type players.
Well Indy was told to lay low with player news. Now that Flagler has decided to not come back Indy hopefully you can now feel free to talk unless it involves a PG who has decided to attend Illinois and your still bound by that request.

Dang. Hopefully doesn’t happen to Shannon or Hawkins…

It’s far from over … He’s going off of what Scott is telling him which is Flagler is gone and they’re all in on RayJ … Like yeah no
… LolMakes one wonder why we would assume he is available. Hired an agent and does not want to play in another jersey says it all. It is likely I (and everyone else) missed something.
But you’re just going off of what your Illinois sources are telling you… so what’s the difference?It’s far from over … He’s going off of what Scott is telling him which is Flagler is gone and they’re all in on RayJ … Like yeah no
Is that Michigan saying hello?
