Is there anything firm that Clark is considering Illinois?

About as solid as it gets in the twitterverse  rumor mill. 247hoops says Illinois is the favorite. Barstool Carl says it's a done deal.

Could be a game changer if we get him. If he and Dainja are as good as their highlight videos looks, we could bounce back  pretty quickly. I did just read that Clark is coming off an ACL injury but came back quickly. Wonder if that had anything to do with his Kentucky de-commitment.

Maybe the whole Illini Guardians thing is working?

Clark and Tim Anderson are tight. Might be in pretty good shape in that one.

We're in on the Trevon Brazile kid transferring from Mizzou. Played well against us.

Also showing interest in Fardaws Aimaq. Big man from Utah Valley.

He can pop it like it's hot. That'd be a good get.

Thing is if you are offering guys in the portal then a few guys aren’t coming back that haven’t announced it yet

No shit sherlock.

There are 15 on sholarship now including Dainja. Three are super seniors that don't count. There are three signed for one opening. Super seniors count next year.

So two are definitely leaving that have not officially announced.

There is talk that Grandison will move on.

We'll know soon on Kofi. If he declares for the draft a third time, he can't return.

Curbelo says he is returning, but he will be meeting with Uberwood, so who knows.

Decisions to transfer or not are not always logical.

Over 1 in 4 players (1740) entered the portal last year. Illinois is no different than other programs. There will be players in and players out.
We did pretty good last year getting a starter who was 3rd team All BT and our second leading scorer, and a rotation backup player. We lost a starting guy who was unhappy and who then got hurt, and some other fringe guys.

We will see what happens.

I. Any believe he was a 5* recruit coming out of HS. He sucked at Indiana and was really never any good for them.
Because FOX News told me so…
