Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Welp, Wednesday truly was the day.

that’s all for today’s fun-who knows what the next two days will bring

Yeah for sure, but I also feel like there's a decent chance Vaaks is in the 2027 NBA draft.

If he’s not … Something went wrong …

Andrej tomorrow???

He’s going to announce it by stepping off a plane…with someone new right behind him

Only when smashing guitars

He can be taught!

 

[Pweezy]

Need Andrej back and we're cooking no matter what happens with Blackwell

A dominant erupt of a day

Big Z scored on over 90% of the lobs thrown his way. All I know is that there needs to be several possessions a game where he starts at the 3pt line and sprints to the rim to straight up dunk on people or have them foul trying to stop it. Kid is a freak. Just need Fletch to get some muscle on him and then unleash him

And I hope Fletch is working with Tomi and David on explosive movement. Side to side and vertically. There are plenty skilled, and strong.

It looked like he was doing some kind of squat thrust along with Keaton in the post earlier in this thread, so it would be nice if each of these guys came back just a little springier!

Does Misko represent Jake now lol

Yes.

Technically, Lee, Jakstys, Ty and Fagbemi haven't announced anything, right?

With the money these guys can get to come back, that's actually high praise.

If Mingo wants to sign up for it - sure!

Assuming Coleman, Mingo, and Morillo all stay though and Vaaks leaves (big if), that just seems awfully crowded for the #9 recruit.

Also I have no idea how NIL would shake out for a guy ranked that high, but on a redshirt year. Just seems like a lot of moving parts

Ethan Brown says hello...

Wait, so does Misko represent Davis?

 

[Curbelo Fanboy]

Perhaps we just experienced what us Cub fans experienced in 2015. Got a taste. Did some retooling and finished the job in 2016. If AS returns and Blackwell comes along it’s primed to be perhaps the greatest of seasons. For once we hit the final four and appear ready to stay at that level.

The triple!!!

 

[TampaToo]

Having to wait 60 seconds to post this follow up on my guess what post was the longest 60 seconds ever …

Time for some EDB!

This team can absolutely rival the 05 team in terms of talent if we get Blackwell. No that is by no means a hyperbole.

I’m surprised those guys didn’t actually want their own announcement. Agent doing it for them…interesting in this day and age (but I kinda like it).

My comment I made was a little on purpose …

Most of these kids want their own announcements … Want their own moment … But the great teams … The winning programs … They do things as a TEAM …

These guys are CLOSE … Very together group …
