Illini drop to 49th in t-rank after the Guerrier addition. Lol. Add the Underwood effect and they're around 70th.

Add Shannon, Hawkins and Tyger, as promised by Indy and they're top 25.

Three point guards in the conversation. None in the portal yet. Dominos.

Guerrier has a nice release point on his shot, but then he kind of throws a line drive drive at basket. Add some arch, soften up his touch, and he should be able to improve his percentages. But he has likely heard that.

Looks strong but his length (6-10 wingspan?) is not exceptional.

ASU got the center to go with their guard from LSU....I would bet $$$ that this doesn't end well for any of them.

I read somewhere that ASU and Illinois are comparable basketball programs.

It's amazing how many people think a 20 win season and a nine seed was a terrible season.

One person at loyalty blamed it on relying on one and done mercenaries.

We had one final year transfer who took A little over 13% of the minutes. First and second year players took over 45%.

I don't think the 20 win season is what everyone is upset about (rabid fans aside), it is the apparent lack of success in the tourney each year....I mean an historical program such as the ILLINI should be able to get into a 16 every few years at least right????

Having an ancient history is nice. We have not been past the round of 32 since the magical 2005 season.

We did not even make the tournament for 6 straight seasons from 2013-2019.

I was on scholarship so didn’t cost them anything

Your parents must be so proud of you.
Had full scholarship and completed degree from UI.

And now lives with crackheads, drives a cab, and is a convicted pedophile.

I live in paradise amongst some absolute babes. So yes I’m doing fine.  Thank you for your concern.

There are no crack houses in Estero FL.  It and Naples are some of the most affluent in the country

Last year was not a good year. Especially taking into account expectations.
