Those names sound vaguely familiar, but I could be confusing them with HOF harness driver Dave Magee, who was the leading driver in Chicago for many years…

They're two of the five winningest coaches in NCAA history and you've maybe heard of them.  Both coached in a higher division than Bo Ryan did.

I'm fine with the "Bo Ryan had a bunch of head coach experience" argument, but saying that while also saying Underwood got his first head coaching job in his 50's instead of his mid-20's makes no sense at all.  Either count lower level experience, or don't.  Don't just change the criteria based on the argument you're trying to make, be consistent.

Or in the next 5, and 7 games vs this guy's top 10.

Yeah that list is a joke.

True. You've gotta make 5 for a jacked up 3 that leads to a transition bucket for the other guys.

Not in this dude's Top 25....

https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/36058691/2023-24-way-too-early-top-25-men-college-basketball-rankings

That's a pretty legit Top 25 imo, St Johns looking in is all based on coach....ILLINI don't do well with May factored in, sooooooooooo.... ;D

One thing that I think hasn't been discussed in regards to Ty Rodgers playing point (which I think is legit), is that Rodgers loves to drive the ball and get to the hoop (he did so throughout HS, maybe a reason his shot is not on par), and if this is the plan with him at point, then the 3's will rain this year again.

Hawk has a chance to improve outside shot and draft status
TSJ has a chance to be more consistant from mid to 3 range as well as penetrate off the push.
Domask will be lethal imo with getting 3's and mid range shots set up off penetration.
Harmon/DGL may provide a completely different flow to our game, once in the game

Williams is the unknown and IF he still becomes an ILLINI, I would expect the waiver to play out. He will be a huge asset once healthy, if he cannot get healthy for this year, then 2024 it is.

Sounds like Jeremiah Williams will not make it here, re-opening his recruitment.

I do think it's wild that the NCAA is letting us (and others) operate the way we are, openly bidding on players etc.  It was explicitly not supposed to be that, and IMO it shouldn't be that.

Players DO deserve to be able to leverage their NIL like anyone else could, but this "put together a giant NIL package to bid on guys at auction" setup is nuts and explicitly against the rules.  I feel like players shouldn't be allowed to discuss/sign NIL deals until they're on campus, maybe even until they've played a game.

Clark. Gone.
Epps. Gone.
Dennis. No thanks.
Williams. See ya.

I guess it's back to the NIL store to see what, if anything, is available.
