Its so good to see DGL rising up in importance, he stayed through the tough times of not getting any game time and he could be monumental next season.
I was very impressed by the way he changed his approach in the middle of his freshman year.
Shows he is listening to and following advice.

I like the sound of that...for me, personally, if there is a question mark, it's on defense...not the rim protection (that seems well in hand), but rather guarding.
I kind of agree and it will depend on how well Demin, Humrichous, and Ivisic can depend but even then there would be so much length on the roster I don't really see how the defense can be terrible.

Sure, the pace they play at will probably lead to other teams scoring but I think they will be able to get stops and I don't think either Demin or Ivisic will be turnstiles.

You have two very athletic wings in Ty and White, a true 7 footer in Big T, a lengthy and bouncy 6'10 guy that can move in Booth(arguably more defensive upside than Coleman because he's a better leaper), plus DGL is very quick and looked nearly impossible to screen at times last year.

Agreed. We annually pencil guys into next year's lineup that don't commit to us. I'm always skeptical of these near-locks in recruiting.
1 good thing is that Arkansas has already dropped a big part of their bag as have all of the blue bloods where I don't think the Illini have really splurged on a big target yet.

That's it.
Yes, I'm crazy, but it makes sense.
It doesn't interfere with anyone's development.
Now he just has to come back.
And CoHawk could guard just about any 3, and give them fits.
Of course, if Egor shows up........NVM.
Have I been drinking? Not yet, but getting ready to, thanks for asking.

Indy , can you give us any new updates other than what illini0440 and Lsville have given ? What are the odds you give us, of landing him?
