Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

[IllniRook]

Can those on the ledge simply relax? We understand your passion for IL basketball, but this is a process …. Let it play out. Can’t “In BU we trust” only to criticize him and staff for not signing portal players when YOU feel the need/itch.

Once the process has played out and you feel the need to express yourself, please do so. In the interim, I would ask that everyone relax and realize YOUR timeline is not a players or BU’s.

David jones doesn’t seem like a guy who will be portaling based on this View attachment 34343

Based on what, exactly?

Luke Goode's latest IG photo is of him holding the B1G trophy in an Illini uni. He coming back to Illinois?

 

[Govoner Vaugn Fan]

He is still cooking. Relax. Let's see what happens.

I'm hoping he returns to Willard and deplanes followed by about five guys that that look a lot like Meyers or Kofi.

STL kid. We were the third team to offer him out of high school.

 

[Tables@EddieMunster]

I’m playing center this year.

 

[tatupu70]

Bad joke--all the cooking he's supposedly been doing.

Xzibit: "Yo dawg, I heard you like Adam Fletcher....so we recruited this kid named Fletcher so that Fletcher can get Fletched by Fletcher"

the alien transfer portal?

FIFY!

 

[Illini92and96]

Gonna miss Nico. I liked him.

I don't think Tominaga is in the portal.

Some of you need to step away from the keyboard and see your doctor about changing medication.

 

[IlliniKat91]

I hate how busy this time of year is at work, but after skimming what I missed, it might be for the best that I can just keep hitting F5 here daily.

We also might not hear anything today.

(This is my official prediction. If it's right, I want insider status.)

Boy, Illinois fans were sold a bag of goods on Moretti. "Looks great in practice running the scout team".

 

[USAFILLINI]

FI_8905 Seems like alot of "cooking" hype was thrown out from the staff. Was the staff misled or have they just completely missed on their targets?

 

[ILL3in1]

Very odd to have a mass exodus following an elite 8 run and when The coach raved all season long about how much he loves the team and the guys in the locker room

Very odd

You can probably check back once a day for a while. We've entered the European Vacation portion of the transfer portal.

 

[Illini 993]

Insiders, I'm not one who is worried, I think BU will reload well. Just wondering though - is the original plan still intact, or has it been adjusted as the portal plays out? I wish that it was the original Mutombo that just hit the portal. How about just adding Small and Garrison from OK State, and Mark Sears from Bama, and consider the heavy lifting done?

"Todai" I see what you did there. Hmm. Probably a decent Nico replacement, anyway. But we need STUDS soon(ish).

How it’s looking, Luke should have stuck around for minutes. We really need to start adding bodies. We can’t even practice at this point.

I guess it's a good thing practice doesn't start until September.
