I would rather have Dainja run the point.
Ever since he’s shown himself to be utterly uncoachable…no way. I would probably rather drink turpentine and pee on a brushfire.
And I was a big, big fan for a long time.

This is probably the proof that Rudd uses for his flat earth theory... "you can see the edge right there! The water just falls off."I got 7 NL'S right now........why would I be jealous ??

Trust me when I say he's not jealous of anyone...........We make sure of that...........We really really do.....Every chance we get !!!!
Malachi Smith would be awesome. Was a 20PPG guy on 40% 3PT shooting at Chattanooga. May be unsatisfied with a more limited role at Gonzaga considering Gonzaga added Nembhard in the portal.Looks like Paul Mulcahy of Rutgers and Malachai Smith (from Belleville, Illinois) of Gonzaga May still be available to recruit for point guard if they step away from the NBA draft.
I’d sh!t myself if we landed Yuri or Malachi lolLooks like Paul Mulcahy of Rutgers and Malachai Smith (from Belleville, Illinois) of Gonzaga May still be available to recruit for point guard if they step away from the NBA draft.
Maybe that’s the point. Feedback could have included they want to see him playing off the ball. That is much more likely to happen on a team with 2 other PG options than at Illinois.
That is the infamous Illini legends. His old IB handle escapes me at the moment.Nice!
Yeah, I will sign myself up for $300k in that role in a heartbeat.I think there's a decent chance Shannon and Hawkins comes back-and I think he was worried about being the 3rd or 4th option on a team instead of being the main guy. Again, it's likely a big mistake, but that was the thought process. We will find someone who will want that role pretty quickly and easily
Either one would be great options.Looks like Paul Mulcahy of Rutgers and Malachai Smith (from Belleville, Illinois) of Gonzaga May still be available to recruit for point guard if they step away from the NBA draft.
The question is which of those were first round draft picks?development knock:
sounds like pure BS to me. Did Trent and Ayo develop? ok, those guys were multi-year players. how 'bout Plummer? yeah, he was good at Utah, but he was better at Illinois.
Nope. It is Toll Both Willie, Truth, Dominic among other names he has used.That is the infamous Illini legends. His old IB handle escapes me at the moment.
Why does this matter? NBA scouts aren't stupid - if you are talented and are the third option on a team they will find you regardless. You would think being surrounded by better players would be a plus, not a minus.This is just an incorrect take. If any NBA exec was telling him to not come to Illinois it is because they knew he would be the 3rd option at best.

Never said he wouldn’t play PG in pros. I posted a rationale a page ago. I have no idea if it is a reason he might go to Utah. But it is plausible — at least more plausible I think than a GM told him he wouldn’t get the development at Illinois. I have a hard time believing a GM would say something that negatively direct about a team/coach.How many non-PG 6'2 players are in the NBA?
Mulcahy is a great all around player, great passer, and would have very very good size for the position. Also, a decent 3pt shooter on low volume.Looks like Paul Mulcahy of Rutgers and Malachai Smith (from Belleville, Illinois) of Gonzaga May still be available to recruit for point guard if they step away from the NBA draft.
Will you post a picture?I’d sh!t myself if we landed Yuri or Malachi lol
I rather roll the dice with DGL than that.Hell bring back Curbelo as a safety valve for all i care..
Perhaps they told him he has no chance to be an NBA point guard? Maybe his only chance is as a three point specialist?Maybe that’s the point. Feedback could have included they want to see him playing off the ball. That is much more likely to happen on a team with 2 other PG options than at Illinois.
Yeah, but he said differently yesterday. So he came around but was a little late to pick up on that partIndy actually said today Dennis was offered 300k more to come here so that was not it.
It appears that Rudd21 has either been banned or he deleted his account. The moral of this story is don't say things to people in private that you wouldn't say in public. Pretty simple.
Or 3. He is better off playing off the ball, with others handling the point.You could take this one of two ways.....
1. The feedback was that he wouldn't develop as well at Illinois, so best to look elsewhere. Very concerning if this is the case
2. His draft position is better if he is "the man" and not the second or third option. In which case giving up $250k in NIL this year is chump change.
