Not my circus, but kinda weird for Andrej to wait so long to announce his decision if indeed he informed the staff yesterday. I guess no announcement needed either way as long as the coaches know.

The good news is, hardly anyone has made announcements yet regarding their deadline decision.
Nothing from fears, momcilovic, etc

FWIW -- Shannon announcing his return came out at 8:16pm on the final day. And Hawkins came out at 10:26pm that same day.

Surely those tweets about Andrej announcing on a random Illini podcast are fake right?

He's back
Edit: lol troll. He posted Amari Allen's "I'm Back"

Feels like that's a good sign.

"I can't tell you. Secret."
I’m pretty sure this is fake. They do have a podcast but I don’t think they’d be able to book Andre as their first guest

Knowing him, he's gonna give us all a heart attack by saying, "Well, first off I just wanna thank my family, my coaches, my teammates, and the fans at Illinois for supporting me from day 1 of me becoming an Illini. My time in Champaign was incredible and I have memories that I will cherish for the rest of my life and I'll be an Illini for life. Choosing to either come back to play for Brad or staying in the NBA Draft has been one of the hardest decisions of my life and is a decision I have not made lightly. With that being said, after talking it over with my family, my coaches, and NBA reps, *takes deep, anxiety-implying breath* I have decided to stay...at Illinois!! I'm back, y'all! Let's get that National Championship!! I-L-L, baby!!!"
Thanks!
