Insider? I hardly know her.

Not an insider but I would guess length and athleticism.

Don't want to take anything away from Amani because I think he can be good but he is probably 6'7 and didn't appear to be able to attack off the bounce and isnt vertically explosive. He would probably struggle to provide much rim protection.

Booth is taller and a lot longer plus he can jump. I'd argue just a lot higher ceiling on booth.
Maybe Underwood wants to have Booth as a stretch 4 but have him defend the 5.

I thought Amani could be a Draymond Green type for us. Undersized but tenacious defensively.

Deciphering Indy Illini fan’s posts the past two days brings possible great news for the Illini Nation.

The way I read into it is this: 1.) Booth liked his visit and liked Boswell and would entertain the idea of committing. 2.) A possible hire for the new AC is Coach Adam Cohen who will come over from Xavier and opening up the door for the recruiting of Donte Maddox.

Cohen has a proven track record and system in developing point guards. Hello Boswell.

National Title next year?

Sounds good enough for me.

I read for the information that a few connected folks generously share with us, for the thoughts of several posters offer, whether of concern or sunshine, and for the hilarity of many other posts.

That leaves a lot of chaff to sift away. Which is easily done and quietly.
