Still weird to sell it though. Nobody employed by this program is hurting for cash. Do the Galloway Purdue gear method and just leave stuff in boxes on the front lawn.

Isn't this the guy who was selling all his IU gear on FB marketplace after Archie's firing? Or am I thinking of someone else?

New saying I just made up: Even a blowhard can sometimes produce a balloon animal.

Last year, I dreaded this statement.

I haven’t been interested in class rankings since The Bowel Movement. But I’m very happy about having Banks on board!

Dawson Garcia? Wow.

OUCH! Illinois devastated this offseason.

I really like our incoming freshmen, especially Bates, but I am not putting any stock in them contributing right away. If this team succeeds, it will be because of the more experienced additions - Kopp, XJ, and Parker Stewart - to complement TJD. I expect Race to have a good year as well. That means we need another guy to step up and have a good year - Lander, Geronimo, Rob P most likely?

"It’s clear Gunn’s perimeter game needs work. He went 2-of-13 from the floor, with the two baskets coming on a dunk driving down the lane and a 12-footer in traffic."

Let Logan have his mullet! I want the party in the back T-shirt when it comes out!

Thought I saw last night that Dickinson is staying in. Edit: Nevermind! "Michigan freshman center Hunter Dickinson has entered the NBA draft while giving himself the option of staying in school." https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/31516451/michigan-men-basketball-center-hunter-dickinson-enters-nba-draft-freshman-retain-option-staying-wolverines

LOL! Confirmation that the "pack line" is some minor league gimmick defense. I think we'll see a well coached, tight man defense.

Also seeing around twitter that he was apparently throwing ice at people in the bar.

More like Detroit No Mercy, amirite?

Not even close to as odd as the duckbilled platypus.

I have my doubts that any 21 year old contributed to the development of Carmelo Anthony.

It looks like this is a guy rated on "potential" instead of actual ability to contribute at the college level. The 247 scouting report talks about how raw he is, decision making, etc. If he signs with us I'm hoping we don't get a 7' Hanner Perea. But I do have more faith in the current coaching staff when it comes to player development. https://247sports.com/player/vince-iwuchukwu-46093901/

"Starting with a $404 payment on Nov. 14, 2016, a list of nine payments are detailed with the last being an $800 payment on Sept. 12, 2017, according to the letter. The largest payment was $1,107 on Feb. 14, 2017, the letter states. The nine payments total $5,474." No wonder the Adidas schools can't compete!

New summer workout: climb the mountain to speak with the wise monk, Robert Johnson!

Another season like the last one and he may find out "lifetime" doesn't mean lifetime.

If money is the same, he stays at Illinois I think. Underwood's success (before the Loyola game) last year bought him time in Champaign. Calipari needs to right the ship this year or he's looking at the door.

No scholarship player is going to become a walk-on. Just not going to happen. It's not about the money, it's about the status.

The staff saw what we all saw last year.
