Who the fuck is Keaton Kutcher?

https://twitter.com/keatonkutcher/status/1644465604026331141?s=46&t=05HrG8dHonbWgeb4jtVing

I’m guessing he registered here as DeliciousPussy.

Second Go-Around looking at the kid by BU and staff

Looks like he rarely played. We need starter level PG. We have nobody right now.

Probably mentioned and I missed it, but AJ Storr is out there.
Looks like an athletic player, had good year, can shoot, and is only a sophomore.

Have no idea if we have a chance, but he is Illinois kid.

He was an early one, so yes he has been mentioned. I don't see the use for this kid now though. 6'5" tweener. We still have Rodgers/Goode, he would be a mix between the two best case. I think we need to get a STUD PG if available (preferably a soph/Jr), then B1G help....would love some athletic 6'8 types or shooters to add to our mix. Walk ons ain't gonna cut it though.

I agree, but that team was loaded and he was formally recruited and we were very high on him....basket case? Who knows, but the longer we wait, the less likely we get quality and means Harris is our PG defacto as of now....or Moretti?

He has been there three years and has never played. Hard Pass.

And, yes, it would be great to get a stud like Cryer, but there are others who would work.

Neither Harris or Rodgers can shoot worth fuck and neither is a PG.
Both are 7/8 ish guys in a decent rotation.
I am pretty sure that staff know this.

Storrs is a wing who can actually shoot. What a novel concept. And he is way more athletic than Goode who is also not really a starter level guy yet.
He would take RJ's starting spot even if TJS and Hawkins return.

There is time. If we have no added players or returnees in June you can start worrying.

I agree at this point the options could be and quite possibly are worse than Storrs on this team.

Tentative take subject to further review:

Domask is not long and Is not a run and jump athlete. He is strong, has good ball skills.

Won't block shots or jump passing lanes, but fights over screens and plays smart off ball defense.

Uses strength to hold position and rebound.

Will not beat opponents one on one, but is always where he's supposed to be on offense. Makes open threes and free throws. Ok handles, good passer. Good post moves.

Never have heard of him or seen him.
His stats look like he could contribute.

So what are the individual odds on Shannon and Hawkins being back?
"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.

Shannon- 0%
Hawkins- 40%

Storr isn’t coming to Illinois. He already decommitted once when Chin Coleman left.  He has no interest in playing for Underwood

So Shannon guaranteed to return per the Inverse Squeaky and Hawkins' return 60%.
