Am I the only one who thinks Galloway just announced he is transferring to Illinois?

He committed to this program during one of our peaks and has seen Underwood and this program maintain that same level since then. I think his respect (and coachability) will be much higher in Champaign
Prefer Heard over Phoenix
I'd be fine with Storr coming if he takes average starter money. I'm not OK with him coming if it costs TSJ money.
The good news is that there isn't some real salary cap! I mean, obviously, there sort of is, because there probably is a somewhat limited pool of NIL, but I think it is pretty obvious that we have people in place that will pony up for real talent that BU and Co. want/need.
We’re good on NIL. We’re number 1 in the conference now. We could realistically pay a player whatever they wanted. That won’t happen though.
That's Christopher Kirkpatrick, an amazing young talent. Because he is from New Trier, he will probably attend Stanford or an Ivy League school.
^Gonna land some really good players once again this offseason
Honestly nobody outside the athletic office really knows what "TSJ money" is. Even if it is a ton, who cares? We're not paying it, and I highly doubt this staff is going to blow their entire NIL budget on one guy. If this year proves anything its that Underwood likes having a shelf stocked with lots of dudes with different and complimentary skill sets.
Because it would impact the team's abiility to get other, better players.
I think Indy said it was high 6 figures. But I agree. I like the fact we seem to have an NIL structure in place, otherwise everyone will keep asking for more. Way better than throwing 7 figures at a kid like Bronny James, who's production isn't worth anywhere near that
Actually it's Danny Houlihan. The NSYNC member shoots a paltry 44.4% from 3. Though he's the teams top scorer and probably best overall player.

This is bananas even in the CSL.
Are we in on this kid? I know he's only a soph but at that kind of clip I'm surprised this is the first I'm hearing of him.

After the way Brad put this team of players together, I think he's earned the right to have us just sit back and enjoy whatever managerie of multi-talented men become Illini next year. What a beautiful blending of talent he's given us this year!
well I should have called out, that is assuming the stats on the IHSA website are accurate. They had 3 guys combine to shoot 48.8% from 3 on 488 attempts.
Craziness

Haha, I actually was getting ready to google to make sure that was the N'SYNC guy's name, though I thought it was!
I'd like Storr a lot but also would hope there would be more additions to come.
Having Storr as more of a 2nd/3rd option would be a good team. I'd be incredibly excited with a Domask return, Storr, a certain big playing in Omaha, and a guard.

The only reason I knew that was from his mention in an Eminem song ha
I get it, we're not paying it. But there definitely is a finite amount of money so any $$ that go to Storr are not available for other players that we might want Brad to recruit.
Riiiiiiiiiight.
