Apartment party pre-gaming + Bars + Frat Parties + After Parties...On Friday. Saturday, do it again. I got my money's worth socially and academically. I-L-L.

Illinois loves Cedric Coward.

Some of the other names mentioned in Illinois circles...MEH.

Kicking the tires doesn't indicate high interest, at least not yet.
I’m not going to lie, I had never heard of Cedric Coward before, but his tape, however short, is shockingly good.

The dude has everything; he’s athletic, he scores from all three levels, he rebounds, and he defends. He looks like Dix on steroids.

OK, clearly my favorite name of those thus far surfaced. Pure and natural athlete. Fills the stat page too. Appears we could perhaps get him for 2 years (with some help from the NCAA)? I'd like to see a repeat of the TSJ transfer here.

DGL role?? The guy was Big Sky Player of Year. Would be a no-doubt starter most likely.
Kylan's back up id imagine. I would think we need someone with some length, speed and athleticism at the 2 & 3 with some punch on Offense but mainly to bring it on defense along with Kylan too. You think he would send Kylan to to 2 or the bench? I don't. Maybe BU is looking at him to start but I doubt it.

to me he looked like a bricklayer from three and he's too short to play inside in the big Ten. Awkward fit... unless he can grow 3-4 inches....

At least a 20-25 min a game guy with another SG guard getting similar PT and Kylan getting 30 min. He can be the backup PG as well which is a good part of his game
Brad seems to hate playing multiple small guards though so I don't see him adding a 6'1 guard to play heavy minutes next to Boswell.

There's a thread and everything....

Doesn't D Darling have 2 years left? Sell him on 25 minutes a game next year. And like everyone else, if he wants to start, then earn it in practice. This is Boswells last year (per Scholarship grid, thanks IlliniFan42!) and starting the PG role is open after that. I doubt anyone other than lower tier teams really promise any player a guaranteed spot. Maybe they are sold on the basis of, "Your starting spot is guaranteed IF you earn it, play well, and you are a TEAM player".

Cool, but I won't believe he'll be a 6min/DNP guy like DGL (and if that's your sell, he ain't coming).
