HUGE shoutout to our insiders. Specifically @Indy Illini Fan @illini0440 @FI_8905 @LvilleILL1

I’m sure I’m missing a few.

You guys make following this team, and college basketball in general SO much more fun. I feel like I’m an insider. I tell my friends what you guys say and they think I’m a genius!!

And as always, shoutout to @Dan for making it all happen!

Here’s to a great year!

LOL at the end, where the crowd was chanting "Andrej....Andrej....Andrej"...

He probably wants his own day tomorrow or Friday, but Im sure it was probably hard for him to not want to join in and get the immediate applause/reaction in person.

I’m guessing it’s all about dotting i’s and crossing t’s. Tomi, Z and Jake all have the same agent. Andrej has his own.

Now that is an extremely different discussion and it'll be an interesting (and fun) one to have all summer. That will probably have to be Brad's very first team discussion. There will be an X on their backs from day 1. How does the pressure get to them?

I don't think Purdue handled it well at all despite pulling it together late.

Purdue didn’t have the roster that we are possible gonna have. They were led by an undersized point guard. Don’t get me wrong. Braden Smith was a hell of a college point guard. He’s a second round at best nba talent. We will have multiple nba talents on the roster and at least 2 of those are first round most likely in Andrej and Mirk.

Ayo was the dawning of modern Illinois basketball, this 'bout to be the scorching heat of the midday sun.

Ayo is absolutely a cog in this, but underwood has now figured out exactly the kind of team he wants, and style of play he’s going to run going forward. He changed up his game plans based on the players he could get, now the players he wants that fit the system he wants are going to want to be here. You know what kind of team Houston is going to be every year, and that’s where I think we are headed. That’s what I meant by dawning of modern Illinois basketball.

Our "transfer outs" didn't play.

The people who played and did leave are multi-year seniors who graduated and a first round draft pick.

Everyone else who played is staying.

And the new joiners are the best transfers and freshman.

Just returned from the CAC fund raiser, nearly $700,000 raised!! My gut feeling for what it’s worth is that AS will not be returning.

oh? Why...his body language? The video of Tomi shows the crowd chanting Andrej's name and Tomi is hyping the crowd up. Kinda assumed this meant he was back just probably waiting on his own day to announce.
