It’s a fad that never dies.

Just pointing out that although Ayo and Kofi are 1st team All-Americans  we’ve probably had a few players that are better. Did it need to be said? Maybe not. Did we need to cry about it being said? Probably not.

Team success is the only reason anyone thinks this.  Kofi's as good as anyone we've had, just hasn't been a part of one of our best teams like the 89 guys and Dee/Deron et al.

If we rode Kofi to the national title this year you'd change your tune.

Probably fair, but that's it.

That would definitely help the perception. But so far we’ve netted one win over a 16 seed in the tourney with Kofi, that’s it. Still can’t say I’d take Kofi over Deron or Nick Anderson. It’s all arguable though.

Kofi is definitely a top 10 all-time Illini. Not sure he cracks my personal top 5.

It’s really a shame that 2020 team got derailed by Covid. Could have been one of our better tourneys in years.

The bigger thing to me - and obviously this is a thing we will never ever know - is the tournament experience they lost.  The Loyola game was the first reasonable opponent they’d ever faced in the tourney (and Loyola had a couple dudes who had played in a Final Four).  Having experienced that the year before couldn’t have hurt IMO.

True, but it affected every team. Play the cards you’re dealt. A guy I was talking to today made a pretty good point. The Mack trade could be viewed quite differently today if Cody Parkey makes that kick.

Or if they'd just taken the right QB before-hand.
