If Andrej is actually on a visit with UNC he will not be an Illini. That being said if it is true that they are just working out the details and he is not planning on any other visits I am confident he is ours. Brad must lock this down to regain our confidence in his transfer portal recruiting abilities.

Assuming Boswell can regain his career shooting percentage, then yes we do.
We are chilling.

Many here do not have much business to go about.
I like to think Brad and co. + Andrej are just refreshing this board laughing at the insanity going on here and that's the cause of the holdupWe are chilling.
I’m looking forward to the: “I wasn’t wrong, it was a done deal, then something changed”
Admissions may be having a difficult time approving this student athlete with his past education from Stanford and Berkeley.
Go Illini!

Does anybody know what day Petrovic committed vs what day it was announced? That might give an indication of how long a delay we can expect with Stojakovic.
Oh there's no doubt he's a great player - no argument there. My surprise at our interest in him has nothing to do with how good he is, and more to do with the fact that we already have Boswell and just got Petrovic's commitment. Just surprised that Brad would pay BIG bucks to 3 6'2" guards.
The answer to the question "why wouldn't we want him" is simply that there's an argument that the significant resources it would take to get Fland might be better spent at the wing or for some more defense/athleticism at the 4 or 5 spot.
But if we do end up getting him, I'll be thrilled - he's super talented and I'll just trust Brad and the staff to figure out any rotations/playing time issues between those 3.
I cannot wait to hear this story.We are chilling.
I mentioned it last week, give me 2, 6.3ft p4 studs and 1, 6.6ft. and call it a day. I believe Ty is going to shock quite a few fans and BAM is the man. I am still worried about the 4 and missing a banger that can battle Maryland, Michigan st, and now Michigan.. Sometimes toughness is what wins a game.
Overall...as worried and torn up as most of this board is...
The insiders seem pretty damn calm and confident.
Recruiting is...fluid. Still the wild west, and if for some reason we don't get him. Pick it up and move to the next.
Also...a f*ckin tweet from a media goon who prolly reads this site beforehand with the title in all caps "BREAKING" Illinois lands Stojakovic, all this board will explode...and STILL he and anyone else can backout at any time without any warning. Nothing is for sure until they suit up for the first game.

This is easy to figure out. He's shooting a high-production commitment video.
