A guy who started every game and played over 20 mpg on an elite 8 team as a sophomore…yeah that’ll do…

Ty gonna saddle him up, frustrate him, and whisper "traitor" in his ear!
Ty can do all the small stuff right. We better be a cutting and easy layup as option 1 and 2 next year. To open up the 3s
I understand it looked odd, but Tomi is a way better floor spacer and Big Z. Ty started on an ELITE 8 team.

Any word on when Dix will have a decision? Big 10 experience, length, and can shoot. We could use all of that.

How bout that. The Michigan guy who is an Illini at heart. Stepping up to shut down the Illinois kid who spurred us for Michigan. This will be exciting!
I will take anyone that truly wants to be an Illini. Screw Johnson

IL desperately needs a 4 type. I have no problem bringing Hum back as a reserve, but we need a starter big time.
It's not always about scoring. He's got leadership, toughness, ability to board against anyone, dawg, and loyalty
Has the 4 man been listed here before?

Ugh. Rez was literally one of the guys we kept saying was a fighter through the whole season when other guys seemed to lollygag around. Can we stop making things up? We have ample reason to rag on him for ditching us for Michigan.

Should be the start of a very good offseason.
I'd rather he be able to make a mid-range jumper. Michigan State made the Elite 8 without being a three point shooting team. They could make those mid-range jumpers. Illinois needs to focus on those shots and not rely on all those three point shots that they can't make with any consistency.
Was Ty’s decision made once Morez left? Similar roles at different positions. Don’t think you could have both of them on the court at the same time
DMFW and Trent Frazier and Ty all have that extra gear that you need to close out games. There is a difference than putting in effort. This years team was missing that. We needed a glue player which the team could build off. Ty isn’t the most talented but that didn’t matter
I get your point. I feel, though, he has good moves and is quick with his feet to get to the rim.
He just needs to finish better than he has. And I think he will. It's the rebounding and grit that we're going to need.
I also think he will shoot a few 3s, and maybe surprise us.
