Everything he has done and said up to this point has been professional and calculated. This is huge news IMO.
We’re beyond Kool-Aid here. It’s like orange kool-aid Jell-O shots laced with Ayo-huasca.
It still is a uphill battle, but there's at least a chance. Big Mac is the most likely tho. A couple of other 2021s as well
Michael Foster!Ayo and his camp have had a plan since the very beginning. COVID ruined that plan. Ayo's stage was stolen, and there is still unfinished business.
Not a set in stone, done deal, but I am hearing a lot more about coming back then going pro...
Ayo thinks that if he and Kofi both return that this is a team that can contend for a Big Ten and National Championship.
Especially if the staff can add one more piece to fill that last scholarship.
No way preseason will be that high but postseason?If our best case plays out - preseason #1?
Edit: By best case I mean - roster construction. Not assuming any transformative offseason player developments. Basically, Ayo and Kofi return, and Foster commits.
not to be a Debbie downer.... If Ayo returns ..we keep every commit? or you think others look elsewhere?
Dare I say, I’d put a beach house on Damonte starting at the beginning of the season... and I wouldn’t bet against him starting at the end.If Ayo and Kofi do return this is what we will see for a line up I think:
1. Trent
2. Ayo
3. Miller
4. Hutch
5. Kofi
I really can’t see any other starting line up. Miller will start no doubt. Curbelo and Damonte will be first off the bench.
Yeah it was tough choosing between him and Hutch, if Damonte is better defensively then you could see him start. Hutch has the three ball threat though.Dare I say, I’d put a beach house on Damonte starting at the beginning of the season... and I wouldn’t bet against him starting at the end.
Who are they shooting for for the last scholarship?? Realistically, I meanAyo and his camp have had a plan since the very beginning. COVID ruined that plan. Ayo's stage was stolen, and there is still unfinished business.

Underwood has talked about Hutch at 1-3 and Grandison at 2-4, so it seems like won’t get much at the 4.If Ayo and Kofi do return this is what we will see for a line up I think:

Having Hutcherson and Grandison as ready replacements for Griffin and Jones allows Underwood the flexibility to be selective. Both have the versatility to play as many as three different positions — Hutcherson 1-3 and Grandison 2-4 — so there’s not a rush to try and add a piece on the wing in response to two transfers out.
Hutcherson is expected to give Illinois length and scoring ability — two traits needed if Ayo Dosunmu moves on to a pro career after this season. But adding strength has been a main focus this sit-out season for the slender 6-foot-6 guard.
“We know Hutch is an elite shooter,” Underwood said. “We were kidding the other day that Hutch has a tricep. What he’s done with Fletch and the way he’s added, he’s so dog-gone athletic. We get a great read from him everyday, not just offensively where he does some great things but defensively with his length and gives us a great read trying to guard Ayo or trying to guard our guards at 6-6, 6-7 with that kind of length and athleticism. Those guys have been phenomenal and to this point have been working extremely hard with Fletch in gaining weight and gaining strength. That’s what those guys needed this year.”
Definition of Ayahuasca....(euphoria is a side effect)..
The main ingredients of Ayahuasca — Banisteriopsis caapi and Psychotria viridis...When combined, these two plants form a powerful psychedelic brew that affects the central nervous system, leading to an altered state of consciousness that can include hallucinations, out-of-body experiences, and euphoria.

I just want this kid to get drafted so bad.Would you look at that? Ayo today changed his pinned tweet from his declaring video to the unfinished business video and updated his cover photo as well. Interesting.
Waiter....I'll have what he's having
