That would be straight garbage and send a really poor message to the staff/university fans/players imo. Didn't stay to want to build it, don't come back to play once it is built.


Perhaps Miller was unhappy with the transfer? Word is he  stayed in touch with Underwood and former teammates.

The 0440 poster also believes that an Adam Miller return is very much on the table. Has a kid ever transferred back to their original school? I can't remember such an occurrence. That would be something.

He has yet to enter the portal though.

Sounds like an idiot to me.  Not Adam Miller,  whoever 0440 is.

Illinois ain’t gonna get any of Miller, Shannon or any other pipe dreams.

Curbelo gone.
Grandison and Hutcherson likely  moving on.
Kofi likely staying.
Hawkins likely staying.
Podz likely staying.
Shannon has been hanging out, more likely to commit soon than not.
Clark later than sooner.

I have no clue about the Clark recruitment, but if we get him and Shannon, and Kofi does stay (as does Hawkins and RJ), and the new guys contribute, we could be very good.
A lot of unknowns every off season right now and will be for awhile. It is a different world now.

Sounds like Shannon Jr. is a done deal.  Kofi's going to be back.  Belo is gone for sure.  Clark sounds like a coin flip either way but with a partial ACL tear so I am not putting eggs into that basket until I see how he performs.

We need to figure out how to keep Hawkins in the mix.  Him and RJ on the floor at the same time would give us a lot length and quickness around the perimeter.  and then when you throw in Shannon in the mix and our backcourt would be radically transformed from this past season's.  Which would be a positive.

Agree with all of this.

Ol' Will initially laughed at the joke.  Which I'm sure he is paying for.
