Are we so certain Ivisic starts over Morez?
Oops! ThanksFIFY
Wasn't Davis mainly a 4 at his previous school? Not sure he's quick enough to guard a 2. Our guard depth is probably enough though but could potentially be worrisome.Boswell / DGL

Went today late and they were gone“Average passer” is what stuck out to me, as well.
Also… what’s his problem with the Papa Del’s lunch slices? Whenever I’m in town, I’m there at 3pm to scoop as many up as I can!
Actually one of the better big ten podcasts out there. They’re both secretly Illinois homers. I mean, they did coin Daddy BradCorrect. Greg is a Michigan fan and he has repeatedly criticized the Juwan Howard regime. Carter is a State fan and he begrudgingly concedes that the program is falling behind the times under Izzo.
Opinions certainly vary, but I don’t get their Papa Del’s hate. Nor do I get the Monical’s“Average passer” is what stuck out to me, as well.

They 1- were obviously having fun talking smack, but 2- refer to Brad as the 2nd best coach in the B10 and just said that, even though the armchair illini post was out of context, they would expect Brad to coach up an undertalented Illini team to be higher than 16th.Actually one of the better big ten podcasts out there.

Okay, yes i'm on the spectrum probably... did our recruiting team bring a photographer or is this pure photoshopping? if the former did we not bring an ncaa ball? if the latter could we not photoshop the right ball in?

That's because it was generated by an AI algorithm designed to emulate toilet graffiti written by Ralph Wiggum's dumber sibling using a crayon shoved up his nose. Also known as Rees Woodcock.Are we allowed to discuss another website's starting lineup projection on here?

Starters - Backup
1. Ty Rodgers - DGL
2. K. Boswell - K. Jakucionis
3. T. White - J. Davis
4. HabaneroSauce - C. Booth
5. M. Johnson - T. Ivisic
This seems way off to me.
Tyler has confirmed Ty was given no guarantees, but I simply can't imagine a guy who started 38 games for an E8 team coming back for Jr. year and coming off the bench.Boswell / DGL

The fact that you can accurately, truly write a paragraph like that, in which 2019-20 was a relatively "down season", tells us all we need to know about what BU and his multiple assistants have built over the past seven years: a program in the hunt annually.It's funny, we've been lamenting the death of the traditional college roster where you follow players as they progress only to have created a roster that looks built on a multi-year cycle. I never would have guessed that would be how we'd go about our roster construction going into this off-season, but damn if it doesn't have me excited. Yeah, the key will be to keep a core group of guys, which isn't easy in this day and age. If we can, though, look out.
This season feels like it could be similar to 2019-20. We might start slow, but by the end of the season, we're a threat to beat anybody. Then, hopefully, with enough of our core back, go on a magical run like 2020-21, only this time we finish the job. I don't know. A guy can dream and the off-season is all about hope.
I mean, it’s just two normal dudes taking sports every day, but I’ve listened to most of their podcast for about a year and am usually entertained. They are usually critical of all big ten teams, especially the ones from Michigan they follow. Overall, they’ve been pretty high on Illinois. This portal season I do agree that they’ve been wishy washy on us. But over the course of each show they end up backtracking and saying how good we could be.They 1- were obviously having fun talking smack, but 2- refer to Brad as the 2nd best coach in the B10 and just said that, even though the armchair illini post was out of context, they would expect Brad to coach up an undertalented Illini team to be higher than 16th.
I just watched both of their videos on KJ back-to-back, and it's hilarious how much of a 180 they took after seeing his tournament performance and officially signing.This portal season I do agree that they’ve been wishy washy on us.

I think some of the starting lineup spots will depend upon the improvement that certain individual players are able to make over the summer, not on who started last year. If Ty were to show up to camp with the same shooting skills he had last year and Tre were to make marked improvements in his shooting and other skills, Tre would start and Ty would begin games on the bench.Tyler has confirmed Ty was given no guarantees, but I simply can't imagine a guy who started 38 games for an E8 team coming back for Jr. year and coming off the bench.
I’ll bet Irvin couldyou can’t give 12 guys meaningful minutes
I can't see an A. He/they missed on a lot of guys they wanted. Somewhere in the B to B+ category fitsAdding KJ to top off a talented, well-rounded class, I’d say BU and the staff earned an A. They worked really hard for months and came out strong. Roster construction is phenomenal. Excited to see these guys in the fall.
Because without Shannon, Domask, Hawkins, etc...they lost about 95% of their offensive production from last year. Ty had shown no ability to be an able scorer at this level(yet). They have a ton of new faces and they need to try and get 75 points out of them per night. It doesn't matter how they get there, they just have to find the combination, which may exclude Ty from seeing the minutes that he did last year. If they find two or three dynamic offensive players, then his value returns in a big way. If not, he's an offensive liability.Tyler has confirmed Ty was given no guarantees, but I simply can't imagine a guy who started 38 games for an E8 team coming back for Jr. year and coming off the bench.
He's generally not considered a guard. Not that quick and not great handles. But given that we only have three guards, he may have to play a bit at the 2 if necessary.Wasn't Davis mainly a 4 at his previous school? Not sure he's quick enough to guard a 2. Our guard depth is probably enough though but could potentially be worrisome.
