Dix has a quicker release

Sounds a little premature too me

LAD…

LAD is great!

Sandfort would be a fun addition and creates a lot of possibilities for offensive matchups. Would further emphasize the need for an athletic guard who can distribute the ball.

 

[goillini316]

Would take hiring Nick Irvin to get him …

Is this a realistic possibility? If so, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?

 

[mysterio2525]

So we agree… we’re looking for a 25 ppg scorer who can average 8 rebounds per game along with 10 assists… AND be a fit for our system. As long as that person’s willing to play the Ben role, I say pull the trigger.

and is left handed. we like those types

 

[HailtotheChief]

Which would cost less....pryce n jalen cox or Blackwell? Which is prefered? If we keep our roster we cant have all three can we?

 

[Illiniforlife]

This …

Very right could be Iowa, Wisconsin, Nebraska or really bad like Northwestern

Odds are this person has no relation to Illinois… BUT

Guy also thinks Blackwell’s price is around 2.5-3M…

That’s a hard one.

Blackwell will make 1st or 2nd Team Consensus All-American next year on a top 2 seed Illinois team. I love his potential fit in our system. He will get a 30% usage rate and 8 three point attempts a game..

The donors have been around/known his dad, Glynn from fundraiser events/reunions/games. + The nostalgia factor of remembering the late 80s teams.

Who could you be happier to cut a check for?

It just seems too perfect on both ends…

If Brad is serious about size, defense, age, and playmaking, this is a guy you go after

I don’t know the credibility of this X account, but it is one of several posters on the X stating the same.

BryceHopkins have you finally run out of eligibility?

 

[Illini2018]

Player transferring out tomorrow ?

 

[Orangeandblue72]

Did Jason Jaktys take a medical redshirt to go with his first year as a redshirt still be a freshman next season? I mean as a deep bench guy that keeps working with Fletch at 6'10" getting bigger each year and hopefully be 250lbs next season for little or 0 cash that is a good teammate isnt a bad thing. I dont think he expects to play but hopefully he is getting better and maybe in a couple years provide another big body and depth. Like the Badgers have done before and i think that was the plan whrn he came here. Now if he took a medical redshirt he will get another year.

Uh ok. I guess he a good teammate? I don’t care if he’s 230# or 275# of fletch muscle. We shouldn’t count on him. Also fletch and his program got us a top 7 that gassed out all the time. Not that it’s all on him because it really isn’t. That’s on the coaches and time management

Jake Davis?
