Meaning he was smart enough to leave Underachiever?

Meaning he didn't get creamed in any meaningful sense of the term.

We got Tomi too.

I think he left over minutes, money, and role.

If it's relevant, he was the first one to enter the portal..

For timestamping purposes,

Dain committed in portal in April 1st of 2024
Tomi committed to the ILLINI in May 6th of 2024

Did we crean him to get Booth and Hummrichous up front ? Or did he decide to go over playing time or NIL ?

Dain entered the portal before Booth or Humrichous committed too. That was the point. We got Tomi too.

Long, athletic son of a former NBA defensive specialist. Started at ND. Averaged 6 and 4. Seemed like a good get for depth.

Isn't that what Dainja averaged as a 10mpg player?

And Amani Hansberry chips in with 10 and 6 at WVa. But we got Humrichous and Booth.

Underwood wanted to play 5 out and Dainja didn’t fit that. He sat for long stretches last year even when playing well because having him on the floor clogging the lane kind of wrecked everything else we were trying to do with Domask booty ball and TSJ attacking the basket. I’m glad he’s doing well. Not convinced he’d be putting up the same numbers in the B1G.

Booth has the potential to be a better fit in what Underwood wants to do offensively and defenselivey.

Dain would be fine if you wanted go with a low post offense and like to defend the pick-n-roll with drop coverage.

Sorry I disagree, I don't think Booth has potential in any capacity to be a B1G player, I would not be surprised to see him transfer to say...Nevada, Colorado St??

It doesn't take a genius to see he is not a B1G player right now.

He has good length and raw athletic talent. That is why they recruited him.

Of course, coaches only see the players in practices, in games, and on.game film. They don't have the special insights we, as fans, possess.

Booth has been startlingly incompetent all season. He has the tools, but seems like he’s in outer space. The sequence he had in one game where he checked in, tried to get a rebound and had it bounce off his head out of bounds was a microcosm of his time here. Guessing he’s just not a good fit with this team/staff and Brad is yelling at him too much.
