Saw absolutely nothing during his time here to even hint at Adam Miller having a bad attitude.

I doubt he’d want to come back but that isn’t a thing.

Didn’t stop people from trashing Mark Smith's “bad attitude” either.
"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.

He did have the flu for 3 -5 days and then complained that Underachiever didn't visit him in the hospital.
Mark Carman: "The Whitlock!...Caleb Williams failed Wayne Whitlock." Been told I need to take my dick out my mouth so maybe I "wont [sic] sound like such a fucking faggot all the time[.]"

Mark Smith's dad was a problem.  Adam Miller's mom is a problem.  Often, those problems trickle down to the player.

I think we all know this.

Yep, said the same thing about him then.

Fans - I assume ours aren't that different than most - act like total dipshits when a player leaves.  In large part because they believe those players should do what they want them to do.  Definitely some weird entitlement stuff.

Payne officially in the portal

Definitely needed to be. I’d be disappointed if he was getting big minutes next year.

Not surprising w/ Payne. Hopefully he can find somewhere where he can actually play big minutes.

Next year and every year on out the MVP for the ILLINI may just be T. Anderson, bringing talent to the ILLINI table. Eat dogs Eat...everyday guys!

I think Anderson is far better connected than Chin. So that was an update.

Gentry/Alexander is a wash.  Alexander probably a better recruiter given his connection to the Wolves if they start producing players.

Obviously Antigua is a heavy hitter compared to Frazier, but I think it’s fine having an alum that can sell the student athlete experience.  So I liked hiring Chester.

So I do give credit that Underwood lost 3 guys to big programs and replaced them very adequately.

Much is being made on whether Grandison and Hutcherson should/will return.

As much as we are losing from our starters/impact players from this past year, and the fact that Grand would give us some experience with a bunch of youngsters, I feel as is it may be time to move on from him, benefitting both parties. I would much rather get another player to help or even Rodgers playing time as he will be the most ready for B1G from the start.

Hutch has unfortunately been jinxed with injuries and a new place would simply be better imo than having him return yet again...

They both declared for the NBA draft also....?

I wouldn’t mind seeing Grandison back. He’s a leader with a cool head on him that might be good for this group. I expect nothing of Hutch as he can go because he has always offered nothing. So he stays and basically just eats a scholarship. He should move on imo.
