Just curious, how many of us can say they saw this for the first time at release in a theater?

Longer neck, however.
Don't forget to subtly downplay the talent, potential, and character of the guys who have already signed.

I did, one of the first movies that I ever saw in a theatre.
Yeah, his brother is listed as an inch taller, but both 7 ft, so this checks out...It's a lazy and obvious comparison but there's kind of a lot of Mike Tisdale to him. His brother is even more Tisdale-like physically, but they are twins.
Tomislav is listed at 7-1, 230 and looks it to me, I don't think he's Rienk Mast-like physically at all.
Here's a good photo of the bros, from 2023 apparently

I feel like to read this properly it needs to be pronounced theee-aye-ter
Would you consider Coleman, should he return, an alpha?
Coleman said in his interview after the UCONN game that he was not coming back here. He also stated later that he is sold to the draft. If he does not get drafted, my understanding is that he could make more money through NIL than a 2 way. I hope that I am wrong but he has plenty of options and would fit nicely at either UCONN and UNC among others. He will get a very HEFTY BAG somewhere! Could it be here? I don't think so by what he said. Again, I wish I were wrong but anyway. It is what it is. I like what the staff has done thus far! Looking forward to BIGGER things coming up!

For the insiders now that the portal is closed and the names should all be available I have a couple questions
1. Did the players you thought would be our targets enter the portal or did someone stay at their school that we thought was going to transfer
2. From April to now did any player that left our program surprise you or was everything kinda expected?

Jerry Krause would pass.
Egor, Ivisic & Richmond? Where’s the final 4 next year?

In my expert opinion I would consider Mr. Hawkins as more of an Omega with mischievious impish tendencies that bely an underdeveloped Alpha trait...........he is in need of continuous therapy that will benefit him in the long run............he also needs to return to the Illini program and benefit greatly from the DaddyBrad directional guidance.......he really really would........
What about the guys that went somewhere else ?

Illinois basketball gets another transfer commitment, but still looking for more
The Illini got a commitment from Evansville transfer Ben Humrichous while it lost another couple of players to the transfer portal.

New to Scotch? You don't spit nearly enough when saying "Wooga Poplar" for it to be a brand of Scotch.
He'll do fine
Kadary Richmond would obviously be the biggest home run, but I think Wooga would plug right in and be a huge pickup - really good three point shooter on high volume - is 6'5" so has the size Brad likes in his back court. With him, Boswell and Ben spacing the floor it would really allow Ty and Trey to be the slashers and get to the rim
If we get Tomislav and Wooga - I think we're back in big ten title contention and maybe even the favorite
The staff has certainly recruited as if he won't be here, with the additions of 4s (or better said 4s who can play multiple spots).
