He would be close to #1 on my list.Javon Small, Yes please!!
Most of the other guys we're talking about are one and dones.
Taking 5 one-and-dones who will all expect major roles in their final season would be a really bad idea, imho. There needs to be more balance and homegrown development than that.
No slight to him, but I like Jake Davis' long term upside more than Jason Jakstys'. That's the way to think about it I think.
staff wanting to upgrade moretti?Happy easter to all of you who celebrate! Going to pick some things up tomorrow, although there is a chance of a Jake Davis commitment today from what I have heard. Regardless, I expect 2-3 transfers out and 5-6 guys to come in, some fourth or fifth years and some multiple eligibility guys.
Staff wants two studs, a primary ball handler, a stretch 4, and a shooter with multiple years (Jake Davis) along with possibly one more guy
Sincere said he is happy hereI'll be extremely disappointed if we lose Sencire in the portal. I'll understand, but as a fan, it'll sting. Always enjoyed watching his effort on defense and some of the more memorable non-TJ dunks of last season
To be fair, what do you expect him to say?Sincere said he is happy here
Javon Small, Yes please!!
I'm not sure he's a better basketball player than Dante Maddox, but he's more of a true PG, so that's pretty strongly appealing.He would be close to #1 on my list.
Oh man, lol. So Isaacs may not exactly be the best teammate then…Yes ... This is an important piece of info ... However I have been told it is an absolute non issue ...
I can say this ... Look back at who transferred from Texas Tech right when this event became public and that should give you some more info as to what happened ...
The legal age of consent in the Bahamas is 16 ... The female in question was 17 at the time of this situation and it was consensual according to my sources ...
Also - This occurred in the Bahamas but some allege it had been going on at Tech ... There is a 3 year rule in Texas regarding sexual acts (17 with 20 is okay) ...
All of that to say ... Non issue ... But wanted to provide a little context as to why ...
Most say he's a bad fit for the system they run, and that he doesn't like Lloyd much. Understandable as he comes off like a goon to me.Man, a quick Twitter search and Boswell is really taking heat from UA fans. Majority want him to leave or at minimum lose his starting spot next year.
He did say defend Lloyd after the game and said "He means everything to me." Seems like they have a decent relationship at least, but who knowsMost say he's a bad fit for the system they run, and that he doesn't like Lloyd much. Understandable as he comes off like a goon to me.
Omg I want to die thinking about him in another college uniformAs I sit here at some bar in Vegas reading through all the comments and still pissed about the way we ended the season, it hit me. It could be the margaritas and bloody Mary, too, but
...
Coleman alluded to it being his last game in an illini uniform, and his dad made a comment on someone's X about going to NBA. Might he be looking at going to a new school?
I'd rather see him end his career as an illini, but he has to do what's best for his life
What was going on with him that last Wisc game. Just seemed so out of sorts, was it that he already planned to leave? The effort and focus just wasn't where it needed to be.He needs another year and scouts are telling him that
Prime example of "choose wisely" in my opinion. Had a ready-made spot here but thought the grass was greener elsewhere.Most say he's a bad fit for the system they run, and that he doesn't like Lloyd much. Understandable as he comes off like a goon to me.
Lol.
Still not fully done yet. Expect him to focus on the NBA for now though
What % would you put on his chances of playing for Illini?He needs another year and scouts are telling him that
Has Sencire improved his shooting. Would be difficult to have two players in the lineup who are not shooters. Ty and Sencire.Wow, we allowed sencire to grow, coach him, train him, redshirt, and leaves Luke that...wow
Yep, that’s the move!Personally don't think we go all out here..we will see though. Think the staff prefers Bowell
