So is Riley 100% set on playing college hoops? I thought there was talk he was considering going straight overseas

Muchas gracias a mis amigos que hablan español. Me encanta The Beatles pero no me estaba familiarizado con las letras de “Sun King”. 😎

Bro Dan ... the Illini transfers are under rated and not in the top 15 so says John Fanta of FOX. Not in the top 15 of the evanmiya.com transfer portal bball top teams. What does Evan Miyakawa know?

Ivisic, Jakucionis played in Europe ...can they adjust to the USA and pwr5 bball? or flame out like Perrin? Boswell, White,Booth all were once top hs recruits... and were just OK in college bball. Can they step up?

Coach BU is adept at handling roster changes and player mix likely learned from his JUCO coaching days. We the Illini Nation by mid Jan 2025 will know how well this current roster plays out. I think we have the potential to be very good solid team especially with coach BU in charge.
