Getting Riley in before his visit to Kentucky and Arkansas this week is huge - hopefully we can lock this up or at least make it hard for the other two to sway him

As others have said if he’s going to reclassify(which is smart given who knows how NIL/paying players will be managed or capped next year)- we make the most sense for him this year by far

His visit just started and I can't stop refreshing. I need to get back to work. How can I be so sucked in to Illini hoops in June? I thought this was over when KJ signed. (time for Belushi meme)

Most of the recent lineups are assuming we get Riley which is a big assumption (Yes I know that's what fans do on these sites). If we don't get Riley, IMO we'll have nine guys fighting for minutes and I wouldn't think Davis would be in that group, but who knows. Injuries also could play a factor.

Davis will be the specialist or the utility guy is my prediction. Ala Sean Harrington or Lucas Johnson.

Boswell probably - 99% likelihood of starting (if healthy). Same with KJ. Hum probably 95% likely. And if we get Riley, he's starting.

Any chance Humrichous can play small ball 5 (obviously match up dependent). Would expect him to be on the floor at the 5 against Goldin.

Is it just Big T and Morez for minutes at the 5?

Jakstys and I could potentially see Davis redshirting as well ...

Fears joining mid year is also very much on the table as well ... I don't know if it will happen but we will be keeping 1 open just in case for that or the potential Dainja type situation that could happen as well ...

That would be without a doubt the most talented roster top to bottom that Brad has had during his tenure ... There is potentially 4-5 NBA guys on that roster ...

Is Rez gonna be okay not starting? Does this make it likely he would transfer?

Fly Illini Fly!
Isn't Meleek Thomas visiting this week as well? Isn't his visit somewhere around June 7? Thought I saw somewhere...might be wrong...

If that's the case...y'all "visit managers" got your hands full.

A starting lineup this year of: Kylan, Kasparas, Riley, Ben, Tomsilav/Morez.

And next year of: Kylan, Thomas, Kasparas, Riley, Tomislav/Morez (hope Riley and Kasparas have the versatility to make this happen...right?).

Some guys like Ty and Tre might end up leaving but...

That's pretty good...

I love that. Least fit superhero ever. And is that a tablecloth over his shoulders?

Was just reading about this. The production fired the original fit actor midway through the second season and the second “least fit” actor later said he thought they were just desperate to find anyone in a short amount of time and he was just in the right place at the right time.

Also… not gonna lie. In my youth, I had a big thing for Isis. 😎
