So what are the preferences at this point? Based on a quick look at Torvik's stats, I'd guess Raynaud, Storr, and Maddox?

It was that bad? I want to be right back in a regional final next year, but hoping it's not at the cost of one of our guys having to be opened up. I'd hope that his NIL would be extremely substantial.

He didn't seem like a guy even remotely interested in coming back. Maybe that was emotions talking?

Is this a legitimate possibility?

That's Lacey, not Penny, golf course-esque, but I'll give you full credit for it. :ROFLMAO:

INGROWN TOENAILS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes I screamed. I fight one on my big toe, left foot. I was putting pressure on my 13 year old, thin and wirey grandson doing plank contests. You can't do a plank with an ingrown toenail on your big toe. His sister was yelling at him for putting his rear end up in the air. "That's cheating!!!" she yelled.
Anyway, ingrown toenails are bad. How did he play at all????? Picture shinney, red, hot, puffy skin on the tip of your toe. Now run, jump, plant, change directions, etc.
You're a good man Mr. Hawkins sir.

So I am not on here a lot, and do remember seeing some discussion about it but haven't heard anything of late... I don't know about deadlines or rules, so just looking for some clarification. I remember seeing some talk about Fears reclassifying to be able to be on campus next year with Morez. Is that still a possibility/is it happening? Or is it not happening and I just missed it? Thanks! ILL

He's had it going on all year ... Which is why we shut him down in nonconference ... And monitored him in practice ...

Not to get gross or anything but he also had several ingrown toenails that had to be surgically removed ... Which also was causing him some extreme pain for a little while ...
Is it the patellar tendon or more like a bone bruise?

@Indy Illini Fan the most interesting point of this update.

those don't sound "that serious" but having had one myself while playing ball, it freakin hurts EVERY TIME you cut or make any kind of play. With his knee being tendinitis, that's rough because he's young and really, the only true cure is to rest it (which for a college/nba athlete is impossible. I'm curious if any kind of procedure can actually help it.
If it's the tendon, which it certainly sounds like, you gotta rehab it so the healthy part of the tendon makes up for the damaged part. Resting just contributes to rest/weakness/flare spiral. The tendon can possibly heal up but it's hard. Can do PRP injection, shockwave treatment, or surgery. Elite athletes usually go surgical route because it is more predictable, but it depends on how bad it is. I really hope it can get better, I'd love to see his skillset at 100% healthy
