I'm not so sure it's the Moms, but other people talking to Mom.

And I agree about Hawkins. But I think his play could be improved with coaching some of the bad 3s and bad fouls out of his game.

Agree Hawkins does not belong on the team, and Leonard certainly doesn't.

A few I haven’t seen mentioned:

Bryant Notree should be on the list. We took unsung Kevin Turner as his package deal and he ended up being a way better college basketball player.

Ryan Blackwell was super hyped coming in, did little and transferred to Cuse.

Lowell Hamilton had a solid career but never lived up to his billing.

Aaron Spears was #86 RSCI and never did shit here and left for SJU and was just a guy there

Who was the fucking football player Weber signed on the heels of our Final 4 appearance? Charles Jackson? Think he belongs here just for the absurdity of the whole thing.

Don't forget Billy Morris.  That was the beginning of the end for Harv.

How can I forget someone I never knew existed?

Weber was stoked about Charles Jackson. As were IB posters.

I can’t put Lowell Hamilton on the list, he was a starter on the ‘89 team. I will go to Justin Fields lengths to apologize for Lowell Hamilton.

Has no one mentioned Skyy Clark yet?

For the Bruce era, every other post-ish player we signed: Semrau, Stan Simpson, Carlwell.

I don't think I could've listed Skyy, because what I expect out of an incoming freshman has completely changed in the portal/NIL era.

Mike Shaw. Showed up here and did nothing, and transferred to Bradley and sucked there too.

Richmond, Adam Miller and Legion were all top 40 guys who did very little at Illinois.
