If he comes in playing good defense, he’ll get minutes.

Does anyone here, insiders included, know what skills and potential Landon Davis brings to the team? There has to be a reason BU signed him. He has some size, and if he can shoot and play tough then he can bring future value to the table. If he can move, he has a future in the B1G and at Illinois. However, there has been so much written here about others that caused any legitimate reports/discussion of Landon Davis to be lost. Same for Fagbemi but we have seen him play. Any input?

There’s no more PWO spots … But if there still was …

Those two guys you’re asking about would be in those spots …

Bingo. Muss needs to prove he can win

Exactly … He can start by just being above .500 … 2 of the last 3 years below .500 …

Let alone making the tournament … What’s it been 3 years for that ??

Losing records in conference each of the last 4 years.

Or Wisconsin!

Iowa is the new Wiscy -- may not have the most talent, but I bet McCollum will get them into the top 7 at least.

Why is everyone so high on Michigan? Yes, Dusty May is an excellent coach, but you don’t just replace Yaxel, Morez and Mara. That frontcourt was special.

They're still loaded with talent. I agree they're not likely not bulldoze over everyone on their way to a NC. But there are only a handful of teams that look as talented on paper.

I don’t know. This kid may be NBA bound. His handles and finishes with either hand were smooth!

USC has a better roster than Illinois and likely the best roster in the big ten. Doesn’t mean they’ll finish ahead of us, but fair to point it out.

I still can't believe this. Muss had Arkansas cooking when he was there. shocked he left and shocked he's been irrelevant in the big ten at best and straight up garbage at worst

I imagine coaching a bunch of relatively broke kids in Fayetteville presents a different challenge than coaching a bunch of millionaires in Los Angeles
