Sorry if i missed it but is there anyone else on a visit currently? Was/Is Jeremiah the only one here, or was he here because someone else was also?😎

Not sure he will need to bang, though. If Kylan and KJ are the initators we expect them to be, Riley can simplify his game to finding gaps on the perimeter when they drive, or cut to open spots when they get onto booty ball situations. In those two scenarios, being an elite shot maker with length would overcome most strength deficiencies. We won't need him to be TJ driving through traffic with the way things are constructed.
He’s going to feast on swings and kick outs from TY, Kylan, and KJ.

We’re going to be a problem to defend.

Lol it isn't complicated at all. Boomers, Gen X, Millennials, Zoomers.

That covers everybody but my friends' kids and all the powerful politicians.
Some would say: Boomers, Gen. Jones, Gen.X, Millenials, Zoomers

Promise, I didn’t make it up…some journalist did. But then of course journalist made up the names of the others as well.

Despite Coleman’s obvious talent and past contributions to successful Illini teams this $2 Million deal is a distortion that will have a negative effect on college athletics well into the future. The race to see as to which school will pay the most for its players is now underway. I can only hope some greater revamped NCAA organization will be capable of controlling this to some common sense level. An unbalanced level of competition can only damage the overall quality of the product on the field and or court.

This paying players with no form of cap is already out of control and it will get much worse. Then they will add revenue sharing and disparity between program's will become even more glaring. With Coleman, KSU had extra funds materialize and Kang went all in on Coleman and a roster of 13. With Onyenso in the middle, I expect Coleman will light it up from outside and dish for many assists.

People have been boxing generations into groups for, well... generations. And basically every generation dumps on the ones that come after them.
'83 here...really bothers me to be boxed in as a millennial so I dump on my own all the time. No offense to millennials. I was already a grumpy old man 10 years so I feel more boomer like...uh, no offense to boomers either

My grandfather was a Dutch immigrant at the turn of the century. Never really mastered English. I used to hear him refer to people as baskets. Not till I was older was I made aware that he thought he was saying bastard. No one ever corrected him. Just as well!
ha!

all four of my grandparents were also Dutch immigrants. They all settled in south and west sides of Chicago. I always knew there was a decent dutch population in Fulton/Clinton, Iowa area .

Whats funny is, my dad (rip) all my uncles (rip also) on both sides looked exactly like Bielema and Underwood. Same face, and large and tall
