great extended clip. abundantly clear why he's so coveted: offensive cheat code. second year and our O? GTFO. completely agree with your points about how his game could expand. WANT!!!
You know what would be awesome? If our returning players all announced their return at the same time, like how the Ivisic's did last year.
Would be the biggest "we're back" ever

All the other B1G teams best start searching now for a vaccine so they can get Vaaks-inated against our next potential commit. Just watching the first 60 seconds of his video sold me, whew, wow!

Scouts said he needed to work on his 3 point shot, and it appears he listened. That is about as good a shot as youre gonna see from a teenager with his size. This dude’s gonna be a dude.
Lucas reminds me of Will riley
After watching am I only one who says pass, unless he comes off bench for 3 shooting. We have to get more athletic than Andre. Slow, not getting to rim, and defense will he a huge issue. Athletic and can guard opposing teams guard or wings please. Crap Ben is faster.

On ball, off ball, pick and roll, pick and pop. Did I say I’m shocked? Dude is the next boogeyman of the big ten. I can’t believe how good that shot looks. My jaw is on the floor.
Wow, stud!

Watched the hoops summit…Miikka Muurinen any ideas where he’s going?
Game was played at a frenetic pace. Wowza.
When we got Matt Mayer over North Carolina, the NC fans had a real difficult time. Threw quite a bit of shade our way.

if you want Cole Kelly, you should want Zavier Zens
That guy is the single most unpredictable prospect I've ever heard of. He was at a couple big time prep schools in the US and decided to go play pro ball in Serbia. I think he thought he'd play a year over there and then get drafted. Didn't work out. He barely played because the coach said he didn't understand the tactics of team basketball. In February he left that team to come back to the US. Who knows what he does next. Seems like a major head case. Obviously super talented but don't think I'd want that in our locker room.
If basketball doesn’t work out, he could be the next Bond villain.
Looks like Keaton. With the slow down in the lane, the spin and finish, the knock down, and seemed to play his own pace. Even if he isn't Keaton he is perfect for Illinois.
That’s a troll account I’m pretty sure.
It’s a fraudulent account:
A new troll account is taking over college basketball with fake news
A troll account, Rob Reinhart, has succeeded in getting two fake college basketball stories about Dan Hurley and Richard Pitino trending.
awfulannouncing.com
In this new age of social media, misinformation is running rampant, especially on Elon Musk’s version of Twitter known as X. And with opening of the transfer portal, the NCAA Tournament, and the coaching carousel happening all at once, college basketball seems especially ripe for misinformation to run amok throughout the sport.
That appears to be happening thanks to a troll account that is giving A Darn Schefter a run for his money when it comes to spreading fake news far and wide.
Meet Rob Reinhart.
Reinhart’s X account has just 4,500 followers and his bio reads as follows, “Husband. Father. Marine Corps vet. Covering all-things sports for the Herald. Auburn alum. All opinions are my own. Have a news tip? DM me!”
It’s a clever troll account in that there is plenty of real-time college basketball commentary spread amongst the fake news. And maybe that’s helping the account deceive so many people on social media, because in the last two days, “Rob Reinhart” has seen two supposedly huge college basketball stories go viral.
