^ It’s been published that group(s) of Illinois boosters are being formed to do exactly that.

Morez 2023 is very very possible. More likely than not at this point.When Goode, Podz, Melendez are seniors, Morez would be a freshman.
If Self had stayed we would be looking at multiple Final Fours with several championships.To be fair, if self stays it very well may have come to fruition.
Bruce was never going to be the coach to develop that.
Excited about hopefully getting Morez (2023 or later), but that is still a lot of time between now and then. Unless he has signed with us already, I will always keep my cup on until proven I don’t need it. I like to be wrong here, but always going to be hesitant to get my hopes up too much.Morez 2023 is very very possible. More likely than not at this point.

I know. I was thinking the same thing as I was writing this. Getting older has me becoming more skeptical.Spoken like an eternal optimist
How did this become so much more common? I had always (perhaps mis-)understood that it only happened with Canadian recruits because it was so difficult to do so in the U.S. Did some rule change?Morez 2023 is very very possible. More likely than not at this point.
Can't speak to the athletic angle specifically, but as a high school counselor I've seen a huge uptick in students who opt to graduate early (either end of junior year or December of their senior year). I think more schools are making it possible to get graduation requirements in earlier and more students are opting to move to college/the workforce sooner than they have in the past.How did this become so much more common?

Or he would have had the Illini on probation. Self wasn't going to stay here because he knew that he couldn't run his program the way it needed to be run to be successful. Players would have had to go to class and Guenther wouldn't have allowed him to have a bag man.If Self had stayed we would be looking at multiple Final Fours with several championships.
With Epps next year and Belo for 2 more years he doesn’t seem necessary although a nice piece. Think a team of Belo, Podz, RJ, Hawk, and Dain could be pretty competitive. Luke, Ben, Omar, Sencire, and Ty off the bench gives a lot of depth although not close to the experience of this year’s team but longer and very athletic.Missing on Boswell is not going to matter in the long run
But what he does is takes it to the rim, he is quick and he has the size Brad wants. Yes, if we can land him, that would be a good get
I think so. 3 Final Fours & 1 championship there. I think he would have elevated us to Duke or Kentucky status.So better than he has done at Kansas?
?.. Since Self left here, Kentucky has 4 final fours and 1 title. Duke has 3 final fours and 2 titles.I think so. 3 Final Fours & 1 championship there. I think he would have elevated us to Duke or Kentucky status.

Boy Luther would have had a huge billIt’s entirely possible
2005 with Charlie V wins that title. Probably goes undefeated on the season.
Imagine the guys we did get and then add Sheron Collins, Julian Wright, and Brandon Rush. You know the core of the Kansas title.
At that point he’s probably won a title and made a couple more really deep runs. We are established and landing a ton more of the area talent.

They're good (D1 players), but the jury is still out as to how good, IMO. AAU ball will tell a lot more.Eva Rubin's teo brothers play for Simion and are 6'8 machines.. 23' class and beyond will continue to be hype
