The situations where Miller, and now Frazier, are now in flux will be a real obstacle for getting any top level ready to go guard transfers or HS recruits.
And no high level center will come with Kofi undeclared.

Might attract a stretch 4, but with Grandison and DMW coming back and the frosh who can play 3/4 that is doubtful also.
 

I am getting the sense that until/unless Kofi declares, the roster is starting to look set assuming Miller and Frazier come back.
13 or so probables without Kofi.

Huge pickup!

Hutcherson (6-6), Grandison (6-6), Goode (6-7), Podziemski (6-6)& Melendez (6-7), sure looks like BU and staff are building some Flying ILLINI size once again....6'10" Hawk, 6'9" Payne...we will be running up and down with Belo pushing the ball....this is going to be fun!!

C'mon back Kofi.

Will be interesting to see what happens with Alfonso Plummer. Long talk with Underwood last night and then sent out a suggestive tweet after. They likely can’t take all of him Frazier and Miller, but I’m not sure these Miller talks are going so hot.

Edit...I see he’s announcing this weekend after the long talk with Underoonie last night. Perhaps the decision has been made

I think if he wants to come- we take him. Kid made 64 threes in 25 games and shot 38% and has range.

The Miller thing is not good. Should not be this complicated.
Frazier info is odd, although he should get a lot of leeway due to his commitment to the program for 4 years.

In the end- we are getting into first come first serve territory.

People continually misunderestimate the likelihood that others will comprehend their abbreviations, acronyms, nicknames, neologisms, etc.

In this case, readers will wonder what the fuck happened to Mike Small.

Yes, I am wondering what happened to Mike Small.
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

Are we all sure or are any of us sure that ALL of the other persons on the team will all be back? Haven't seen any info inregards to say Hamlin/BBV/Lieb or anyone else....but it would sure seem like a Crean will be occurring at some point based on our continued talks/recruiting/reaching out to others that are available?

So far, Ayo/Frazier/Miller gone for sure? Kofi possibly, Payne/Goode/RJ/Pods all committed...am I missing something here as we are still trying for more?

Thank you, but my question still is valid, unless we have definate inside information, it would seem something else will happen?

My guess is BBV and or Hamlin.
