BREAKING NEWS: Just in I heard we’re in a very good spot with Storr. Maybe even in the lead. Maybe even been in the lead for awhile now. Maybe

The lack of certainty is very concerning. Where are we as a program these days if we can’t lock this down on a day????

Part of the problem is that it's basically impossible to have Rodgers and Harris on the floor at the same time with both being total non-shooters.

Rodgers seems to be the priority, which is justifiable given the variety of other things he provides. So as much as I might want to carve out a big role for Harris, who I really like as a player (and who I haven't given up on as a shooter), we just kinda can't.

Wow....I sure wonder sometimes if folks posting these statements ever watch the Illini play. Harris was involved in the offense, shot the ball fairly effectively from the arc, and made some electric finishes at the rim... in his freshman year. I saw it...those things happened and no one can deny itl

What he did not do well was shoot FTs, something that can be fixed by a good FT coach if they know what the major important parts of technique to focus.

But, as in the case of DD who was an elite finisher at the rim, SH was a wash with his defense if he cannot hit FTs...though in his defense, that was not as critical as it was for DDl.

The bottom line is, anh Illini team could use SH on the roster. and I hope he is for the next 3 seasons.

Yeah relying solely on TS% to field a team? Yikes man

I clearly didn't come across the way I intended. Ignore my entire post, and instead assume I said: "I see all of the excitement around these rumored transfers, and I'd like to have it too. The stats for Storr, Boswell, and Hill didn't look as amazing as I figured they'd be based on the excitement level around here, but I trust BU, so can someone share their reasons for their excitement?"

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.

@Indy Illini Fan and I are going to need someone to drop the bag for us to stay. We believe we’re potential lottery pick insiders and the NIL situation here doesn’t reflect that.we have families to feed.

Which one of you two is the #1 overall pick and which one of you is Sam Bowie to LvilleILL or DB11Headband’s #3 selection? 😉

Any shot down the line the schools that tamper ever get sanctioned or has it gone too rampant? Not that our program would ever do such a thing
