As long as Sanderson wants to be here ... His salary will be taken care of ... Don't worry about that ...
Sanderson is a big family guy ... Stability is a big deal for that family ... His wife and family are awesome ... Michigan did them dirty ... They mentioned MANY times how Illinois fans and staff have been so welcoming and caring ... They LOVE it ... They feel like part of the FamILLY ...
Can't get too much bigger than 7ft 250.
Bez Mbeg, 6'4" pg is also a nice player. A Yale win tomorrow puts them in the dance.

Indy, please explain. He’s already transferred once. I THOUGHT the rule was that you have to sit out a year unless graduated??? How can he immediately transfer as a junior??? Rule change?

NCAA is who originally set the rule on the sit out after you transferred once. However, the courts overruled this in the fall and i believe there is an injunction still in place to stop the NCAA from making these players ineligible. This was the case that involved Curbelo and Ace Wolf this season. Once the counts stepped in they were allowed to play. The ruling is still in effect but guess it could be reversed but hasn't.

Thanks Jack!
Does that mean Illinois can pay TJS millions to stay and play until 30

- how was I to know, she was with the Russians too?
hopefully, his head is adjusted. every incoming kid carries some risk. Johnson probly more than a little. but the reward is potentially huge. due diligence is going to be critical here
Would it change your opinion if he was in the 8 man rotation but probably not in the starting lineup to start the year ...
I think for me ... It is an absolute no brainer to take him if he is willing to commit to a Harmon type role and earn his way ...
I don't know if he would be willing to do that though ...
Is he an EDG ... I think there's more Epps than Trent to him personally ... But if he is willing to find the middle of those two ... He could find success here ...
If I remember right, was he a guy that was mentioned coming out of high school? As an option for us?

I cant even begin to imagine him and AJ on the same team let alone ours
That is interesting. Illini must feel they are in pretty good shape with someone who they feel is better because that kid is really good. Hopefully BU still isn’t thinking of going with Ty as his PG.
he likes himself just a bit too much for me.

I'm the opposite of an insider, but I do know this b/c Jeremy Sr. came over and chatted us up for about 20 minutes at the hotel. They had a 5:15 flight back to Chicago (so Jeremiah could get back to Arizona today), so were probably going to watch the first half and then leave for the airport. Not sure why he decided to talk to us, but he's incredibly friendly and shared some great nuggets about his son's recruitment.
