Not even remotely the same thing. If you want to equate inviting people on to your front yard with talking with people through a screen…… well, that is a you problem.

I don’t know what wisdom you could glean from someone. I feel like it is pretty self-evident that you have no desire to. I am not going to tell you what to do. I just think the ignore button is intellectually lazy.

I guess….. you can ignore me.

So it appears we have these 4 guys on the 2024-25 roster to carry forward the torch when it comes to the Illini/Underwood culture:

* Goode
* Ty
* DGL
* Nico

4 - Returnees
2 - HS Recruits
4 - Portal Transfers Committed
3 - Portal Transfers Remaining

Sorry but “boom” and “huge” seem exaggerated. Upside/potential sure but a lot left to prove. 3 to go and they need to be big or a high expectation fan base is going to be disappointed. Not saying they won’t be but it seems time to elevate the level with the room left. Need some actual “boom” players.

Gotta love Loyalty. 10-15 pages debating what it takes to be an insider on the recruiting thread. Land a former top ~65 recruit that the staff obviously prioritized. 1 page in over an hour. Maybe everyone is just enjoying time with their families on this sunny Tuesday.

You ever seen this board after a bad loss? 3x as much action than after a win. There are many posters around here who only come for the axe grinding.

Tonight's Underwood's annual Coaches vs. Cancer dinner. The insiders are there gathering intel.

I avoid the Internet for days after a tough loss. Probably when I’m most productive at work and home honestly.

Not mad at all. Mostly feel sorry for people. Anytime you shut yourself off from people who say things you don’t like, you lose out on wisdom that they do possess in other areas.

Seems like an ignorant way to go through life.

The problem is guys like bquill, super, and the other guy (already forgot his moniker) weren't interested in offering wisdom. They are pure trolls trying to get a rise out of people. Many like this on the old Illini boards. Anyone remember Plaza 7, Lucky Baldwin and a dozen other names that guy signed on as every time he got banned?
