Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

[Axeman21]

Coleman is not coming back without a 5...

Sadly, it just doesn’t seem like Coleman is coming back either way. Which sucks, I’m a huge CoHawk fan. Have a buddy that’s reffed many of his prep games before his Illini days

Prediction: Cam to Illinois.

Classic Cart and Greg doing their thing and playing with us. Love these guys (most of the time).

And even then, there were ways of getting around the rules. You just had to be very subtle.

I was being sarcastic. Certain schools have always been providing nice big bags o cash to players.
You'd recognize the names, I think.

Kansas. Kentucky. Memphis.

Or sometimes not so subtle. I had a conversation the other day with someone who played football at USC in the 80s. He got paid for a job. He was hired to shovel snow off the baseball fields.

I had a job like that for awhile while in the Navy but it wasn't particularly rewarding LOL

 

[zentrails]

Kansas. Kentucky. Memphis.

Louisville, UNC, Duke maybe miznoz?

 

[IndyIllini2]

Except there’s still a lot of names not officially in the portal and may not be until the end of the day Friday. Calm down.

You can't beat them. Join them I suppose

Moving on…

 

[GallopingGhost]

With pretty much everyone in the portal now, all we need to do is sit and wait. We will land some big names I bet.

And if they’re not big names, I’m sure they’ll be perfect complimentary pieces to make us a great team.

Prediction: Coleman to UConn

Just shoot me now.

 

[Jplatt06]

No, who

He’s on first.

 

[jamarvelous31]

Geoff is the European king - one guy will announce by end of weekend assuming admissions is cleared.

Second guy - the donors were just asked for more money to make it happen.

This staff is really impressive.

Does the 2nd fill our W/G need?

 

[Illini IndyCar Fan]

He’s on first.

No, He's our 5.

 

[dwpittman]

Deleted. Someone beat me to it.

 

[foby]

No, He's our 5.

Then who's on first?

 

[WyattEarp]

Those guys are all in their 60s now. I can't imagine they hold up for an entire basketball season.

True. Also, don’t you want Barkley? He was the leading scorer on that team.

 

[illini0440]

So we went from

Boswell
Dante Maddox
David Jones
Domask
Coleman

to…

Boswell
Sallis
Jones
Wooga
Omier

and now it’s going to be…

Boswell essentially let go by Tommy
European that’s never played CBB
Tre Freaking White
Ben 14 ppg at Evansville Humrichous
Another European that’s never played CBB

Whatever helps you sleep at night

I thought the insiders said Geoff didn’t contribute to recruiting?

Complimenting the other complimentary players? Haha I'm just kidding... Kind of. Everything is fine.

Have you ever been in a Turkish prison?
