Senior night
« on: March 06, 2022, 11:48:45 AM »
Thank yous to Trent, DaMonte, Jacob and Alfonso. Kofi gonna be honored also.

Illinois is the Big Ten's winningest team over the last three seasons with a 43-16 record in league play, and a 46-16 mark when including the conference tournament.

• Illinois' 43 wins in conference play over the last three years is the winningest stretch in school history, and ties the seventh-winningest run in Big Ten history.

• Illinois has won at least 13 Big Ten games in three straight seasons for the first time in program history.

Joe Davis and Casey Jacobsen doing the game again.

Huge fan of Trent, he stuck with the program through thick and thin and should be remembered as one of the best 2 way players, hope he has a nice Senior farewell tour here in March

Damonte has had an interesting career, he never really made that big leap but was always a hell of a teammate

Grandison and Plummer were very nice transfer pickups, really like both of their games when their shots are going down at least...

Kofi being honored means he's probably gone right?  Not surprising really, just going to enjoy watching him play while he's still here.

Got a friend trying to get Kofi for an autograph signing at his place of business and he looked into the NIL to get him there. A booking is $67,000 to have Kofi for an autograph signing. 😳

Yup that’s what he was telling me last night. With this NIL players can make a killing. Kofi rolls around in a big SUV. I wanna say an Escalade or Tahoe. He’s set up pretty nicely.

I wanna say freshman TyTy Washington from Kentucky is driving around a Porsche.

Kofi needs a big something. A smart car wouldn't cut it.
How does that $67k get divided ?

That’s what I was wondering. I know the agent they use has to be approved through the University. It’s not an agent like when they go pro or whatever and can be a friend, family member, etc.. but has to be approved. I imagine he gets the $50k and the other $16k is divided up for that said agent and possibly some to the University? Still $67k is a lot of money for one signing. That’s not even counting the other endorsements he getting. If it was me getting that kind of $$ I wouldn’t mind coming back for another season. Be worshipped and making way more than he would in the G league.

This should level the playing field. Lol.
$1.89 and a Kofi autograph should be enough for a taco at Taco Bell in Campustown.
Do they charge tax ?

Seems way overpriced.  I doubt you could even get 1,000 local fans to pay $10 a piece to get Kofi’s autograph

Thanks to seniors as a whole, Da'Monte and Trent will go down as 2 of the most under appreciated. Trent has always been one of my favorites going back to freshman year....D-Will found his own way out of Dad's legacy, and although not the same talent has more than contributed to our success.

Transfers have been awesome for us with Grand and Plummer....where would be last year or this without either. Thank you to all the seniors.
