Sad to see Goode go, but I see it just like Grandison....worked his tail off, hung some banners and always was a team guy. Now, he got his degree and I won't begrudge him leaving for anywhere he can get more tick for his final grad year. Illini for life.
Only thing giving me pause is that we were told that U of I has the most NIL in the B1G now, but it's pretty clear that Michigan and OSU have reeled in more high profile transfer targets *so far*. I'm super hyped on Kylan but other than that, it seems like we've brought in high upside/under the radar guys while missing out on our two top targets in Maddox and Storr.
If we keep saying that we're gonna bring in new guys that'll make our current guys think they won't get any minutes, let's hope we actually bring in the kind of studs in that will justify that approach.
