Wasn’t that one of Weber’s big downfalls? Whiffing on the big fish with no solid backup plans?
I thought that was Groce

Underwood has at least 4 back up plans on the roster.

Lou Henson struggled to recruit point guards until Harper and Tucker in 1980. The 1979 team collapsed when Steve Lanter reinjured a knee.

The public address announcer with 'And starting at point guard for your Fighting Illini is Backup Plan A' does have a certain ring to it.

 Im fairly certain Rodgers will be better than Clark or Epps. Those 2 we're terrible PGs and even worse teammates.

The fact we made the tourny last year despite them should be considered an achievement.

I don’t think Rodgers has made a shot outside 3 feet since he’s been enrolled at UI. He basically gives the other team an extra defender to essentially drop into zone when he’s running the point.

Sounds very Jaylon Tate-ish.

Yes except, Tate never had any "other" game either....no above avg passing skills, (Ty is a good passer), no "Booty" game...too small, no penetration into lane areas, too slight of build....other than that yes just like Tate.

Best thing any Tate had going for him was he made a living being a reporter.... ;D

Andres feliz  in his Sr season shot like 27% from 3 and even worse when not shooting from the corner.
Andrea curbelo as big ten all-freshman team/ 6th man of year shot like 17% from 3.

Should we compare them to Jaylon Tate too?

Don't compare Rodgers to Jaylon Tate.

Well, we were discussing ONE aspect of his game, which is his reluctance to shoot anywhere from distance. So, the comparison is fair in that respect.
