I really hope Illinois lands both of them PLUS a couple electric guards and a rim-protecting big. Yeah, that's a lot. Flex the NIL.

too bad he can't shoot (according to some on here)

To be completely fair his shot looks good but he hadn't really shown many makes until today(not that he played or shot a ton).

It took until his 4th year for Coleman to shoot well in game despite being told he was a shooter though honestly think Hansberry has a better looking shot(Colemans is pretty flat).

I think it was pretty fair to assume Amani is kind of a question mark going into next year because we simply didn't see much of him and he had some back injuries which are never a good sign(still scarred from Joe Crede).

Hill means no Maddox, right?

Davis still a go?

Hill, Maddox, Storr, and a big guy ... Potentially another guy ...

They like Pop ... Gonna come down to NIL ...

Maddox is Brad's ideal 6th man ...

Could see a lineup of Pop, Ty, Storr, Hill, and a big ... Morez, Goode, Maddox, Hansberry, DGL, Buck off the bench ...

Davis can be a PWO ... I just don't see what everyone else does I guess ... Kid is a mid major player IMO ... Have seen him since he was 15 ...

He didn't even crack 10 PPG on a crap Mercer team ...

Maddox is like half a point guard and Hill is maybe a third of a point guard. If you put a number on Storr it would be negative.

Still light, and by process of elimination the strong indication is Moretti leaving.

I dunno man

we are already on that for a minute there when praising his teammates and how they all got along, and said "I want to stick around with this group, and have fun with this group

I did a doubletake when CH was praising the comradery amongst his teammates and said " . . . same feeling goes in the future; I want to stick around with this group and have fun with this group . . . " I thought he was talking basketball next year, but realized he meant in his life.

Boswell or another pg could also be in play potentially. If Boswell comes into play, could see them passing on Maddox and bringing in Storr/Hill

Yup ... They were waiting on Pop to enter and still waiting on Boswell ...

Brad is going after the elite portal kids ... Figuring out where the market is at and then he will put the puzzle together ...

Loved Amani’s minutes tonight. I think he’s going to be a less athletic version of Quincy but more assertive and with more nasty. I bet he puts up something close to what Quincy put up this year.

QG was a slasher and hit some big three-pointers. He did struggle at times not finishing at the rim. To me, Amani will be more efficient finishing at the rim. He can be a very solid role player who will get key rebounds, especially the offensive ones and putbacks.

He was always playing better/more fun to watch than Xavier Booker when I saw them in high school - but he also hasn't played at all at MSU so 🤷‍♂️

I think we are lacking a lotttt of scoring next year. Hope we can bring in some studs. The organic recruits we have, i don't see many of them starting.
