Definitely some stage of denial and I’ll preface this with I’m not gonna riot if by whatever miracle it happens, but I don’t really want rayj on this roster anymore.
I heard somebody asked RayJ if he was for sure going to Baylor, and he replied "BAYLOR!? I hardly even KNOW her!"
Middle out compressions the way to go!
I was at that game. 6th row from the floor along the baseline. If Augie or Roger so much as shed a drop of sweat on Sean May, they were called for a foul. Meanwhile, Powell got practically assaulted when he got the ball in the paint and it was never called. The NCAA and the Refs were on the Roy Williams deserves to win an NCAA title bandwagon and it showed. Plus I assume our guys at least went to class sometimes unlike the NC players. A travesty!
That's the Elite compression method!
I would be shocked if there's any recruiting news for quite a while. Illinois is full on scholarships, and there's not a peep in Twitterland or elsewhere that they're actively involved in many recruitments (except maybe Wilcher or Johnson although neither seem realistic). IMHO, it's safe to take a break from this thread at least.
I doubt staff is taking any time off here from finalizing the roster.
It’s just what happens in every college sport
Eh, not a very good one, but it's a strategy for sure.
Williams did that.
Exactly. Wouldn't want a vacated title, but UNC doesn't deserve it.
Reeves? Assuming also, that these '23 guys have got to decode fairly quickly.
Reeves isn't even in the portal, and there's little indication Illinois is a serious player for either recent decommit.
Simeon Witcher has officially requested a release from his letter of intent-
Prove me wrong please. And I'm hardly an Eeyore. #lame
Auggie fouled out in 9 minutes with zero points and 2 rebounds. We shot 6 free throws to their 19.
Pitino will reach out to him......
