Yeah. I'm really beginning to feel like negative nelly.
I really don't want to root for a team that is completely different every year.
I don't want to hear "I don't blame him for quitting our team and going elsewhere for a bigger bag".

I'm telling ya, once Dix started warning others about our McDonald's, they became much more reluctant.Does Illinois even know that it’s ok to bring players in for visits?
There’s an easy fix for this: The NCAA gives up its pipe dream of getting an anti-trust exemption from the federal government so it can go back to exploiting football and basketball players. Schools could already be signing players to binding contracts with or without buyouts for transferring, but the NCAA isn’t yet willing to give up on its greed, so we get what we currently have.
Think of the No Contact label kind of like a wedding ring on a girl sitting alone at a bar.

But not with Illinois money I’m guessingI expect Sarr to be a very rich young man …

Wagler has a lot of promise. Not expecting much this year, but looking forward to a big leap the following year.
For this narrative, let's take the three potential guys listed here for example: Ben, Stoj, Miller. Would you rather have those 3 or Haggerty?
A lineup of: Bos, Haggerty, Ty, Mirk, Tomi (also a bit shorter bench) vs Bos, Miller, Stoj, Ty/Mirk, Tomi. IMO the answer's fairly obvious.
But of course you'll also have to win the most high-profile recruitment of the portal...

Oh it's just a joke about how quickly we can go from confident to losing a player.
I'm not sure they have a good grasp on the portal as a whole. It's like going to a political campaign rally. You're well informed on one side of the informational puzzle. But you still know nothing about the rest of it. That's why there ends up being 5 fanbases on these forums convinced they're a shoe in to get someone. He can't be cloned 4 times, so there we have it.
Similarly, we don't have two high rated legacy recruits who will get preference over you.

This is so painful.
I haven't seen any drop off in their brand since the coaching change. I thought I would but they still keep bringing in the top recruits year after year.

Dra really is a great kid. So sad.
I assume this is an Ace backup plan and honestly- I would prefer him, similar role, but I think he gives you more upside and his catch and shoot 3pt% is 58%- that’s insane! think of all of those open catch and shoot threes we missed this year. Plus I think he can get to the rim better than Ace and I’m sure he would cost less
Brad when any school offers more than 2 mill
And then you can find someone who hates you as much as Indy hates Ben/Hamer to even it out!
