Now that you mentioned it these guys do remind me of some guys from Wisconsin. :noidea:
Matic Vesel (2017 PF) commits to Illinois

After watching the video Vesel reminds me of James Aug. The way he runs the court and screen and rolls. I will take that any day.
Yes, and so does Greg in Nigerian
Actually laughed out loud on this one. Doesn't happen often
Ubermensch
BOOM! Feed my ego.
A front court in 2018-19 that features Black, Finke, Conditt, Ebo and Vesel is VERY exciting.

Why not Otto-Matic?
On paper it's an incredible haul, and having the #1 recruit is no small thing. While I'm not very confident in their coach, they should win some games.
They did have quite a haul and will be considerably improved. They were, however, awful last year. They only won 8 games. To improve from where they were to a Final Four favorite would take a Kentucky like recruiting haul. While their class is good it is not that good. They should think about making the tournament and possibly advancing to the second weekend. Final Four is a bit unrealistic. IMO.
Also, they need to play this during breaks in play when he's on the floor, or after he hits a couple nice shots in a row:

My preference for Automatic
Besides being a better song, the band is from Oak Park, Illinois, not Oakland CA

Sure. Not quite as well known, though.
At least it got airplay on WPGU, back in the day.

A very cool recruit for me personally, the Illini's first Slovenian player!

As someone whose grandparents immigrated over from Ljubljana, I concur! :thumb:
How good is Matic?
Hard to say from being on the starting 5 of his age group from Slovenia.
However, if you look at his performance in the under 16 Euroleague in 2016, against all European competition in his age group, he was the 5th leading rebounder (measured on minutes per game) in the entire Euroleague competition. This bodes well for the Illini!!
