Who would be out backup option? MJ and Booth?

Obviously Morez would get the lion's share of minutes. Then you'd go to Hum and Booth. Hum would be a "5" in the same sense that Coleman was.

But I would expect Ivisic to get in.

At this point, he should wait until after TSJ's "NOT GUILTY" verdict is announced...I'm very excited about the possibility of Will Riley choosing the Illini, but at least for me, TJ's nightmare finally coming to an end will be by far the most important news of the day.

Yeah the amateurism stuff is one thing, but then there's also the question of when was the last time this 21 year old professional basketball player was in a classroom?

We wouldn't have taken the commitment without a pretty solid understanding of the admissions situation, so for something unexpected to crop up is worrying. It's not like he can just tack on a summer semester at his high school he currently goes to.

Since OA went through the exact same thing with his brother just a year ago, saying this is unexpected is just totally discrediting the intelligence of the staff to the point of being insulting. You act like they're idiots.

It's not worrying unless you're looking for something to worry about

While I really like the prospect of Jase Butler, I can't help but laugh at how ridiculous it looks for him to ask for guaranteed PT now that we see how the roster has turned out. It's also awesome to see where we're at as a program that we can say no to petty requests from 17 year old kids now (at least for guys that aren't top 40).

I kept hoping this would be announced before leaving for Vegas this afternoon to celebrate 20 years with my wife. Guessing she probably won't be super keen on me checking basketball forums while out there.
