Sad to see Giorgi go

Seemed like great kid and did a nice job. Should make some decent money playing ball in Europe.

Good luck Giorgi, in whatever you pursue. Thanks for what you brought to Illinois basketball. Be our ambassador in Europe please.

Nunge to Xavier. The Kofi situation is a big deterrent for any guys looking for assured roles. I would think you could safely scratch Robbins off the list

Robbins is in demand. No ego kid. Will want to be the starting center for sure, however.

Kofi will need to get a lot of feedback from NBA guys and that is still no sure thing they even know what might happen.
I have seen his name from late first round to undrafted. I don't think his draft status changes by staying another year in college unless he shows a big expansion of his game which is hard to do at this level.
He needs to work on his game FT for a living and he is not afraid of the work.

Sure- We go from bubble team to Top 20.

Not sure why he would, but every kid and situation is different.

Obviously the staff would prefer to know sooner than later as the possibility of him returning hinders their ability to replace him with an immediate difference maker for next season. Which I’m sure they’ve talked to him about.

Agree with LK that he probably isn’t going to all of a sudden improve his draft stock next year playing in college but he would be in line to achieve some pretty serious individual accolades next year playing on another potentially highly competitive team.

The worst that could happen is he drags it out and we have to take some scrubs because the good guys are afraid they’ll sit behind him. Then he decides to leave, effectively fucking next year’s team.

I’d have imagine the staff has had this conversation with him and that whatever he decides will be relatively swift and definitive.
