Go to Spain. See what we have. There will be more grad transfers in August.

Our starting pg entered the portal 3 months ago.
Underwood should have found a body. And if you can buy somebody at the NIL store over that body, so be it.

Seems insanely idiotic the way this is going down. I know I’m not privy to practice and shit but get a goddamned PG

Plan A played at Portsmouth and stayed in draft..

Plan A1 was an Illini lean early but ultimately picked Baylor.

Plan B unexpectedly stayed in the draft

Plan C committed but has too much baggage to unpack.

There are two actual point guards, Gibbs-Lawhorn & Moretti,  and a point forward -- Rodgers -- on the roster.

New additions Domask, Harmon, Hansberry, and Guerrier will upgrade the team's overall ball skills. Domask is a very good passer. Hansberry has been called a point center.

Hawkins and Dainja, yes Dain Dainja,  are good at passing and handling for their size and position. Dainja has lost more weight and hopefully will show more of what he can do. Knock on wood.

There is an open ride and another crop of grad student transfers will emerge in August.

I think they are going with Rodgers/DGL/Harmon.
We will see....

We didn't mention all the guys they passed on trying to hit a homerun.
And there are a few guys we refused to pursue because UW can be a redass. LOL.

I should have mentioned Harmon as a combo guard.

Recalling the year we went into the season with Maniscalco as a grad transfer and Abrams as a freshman as our two possible PGs and our lottery pick wound up crying on the bench as we got slaughtered by Nebraska.

I really like Ty Rogers and he was clutch for us at times last year but if he's our 1 we're going to have some bad games.

I also don't know why we didn't aggressively pursue a safety PG while still going for RayJ, etc. Like I don't Ahron Ulis is going to be All-B1G this year but a stable rotation PG is a stable rotation PG.

Exactly what I would have typed if I had the energy to do so.

Wasn’t that one of Weber’s big downfalls? Whiffing on the big fish with no solid backup plans?
"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.
