Maybe worth keeping an eye on: Jaemyn Brakefield from Ole Miss announces transfer. Had an IU offer under Archie, though it never went anywhere. I believe Hunter was his recruiter. Kind of a small ball 4. Averaged 11/6 in the SEC. 2 years of eligibility. 

I found him in my database.  We offered in June and he committed to Duke in Oct. 2019.  Never realized he had left Duke.

FWIW, we offered Skyy Clark in April '20.

And he’s a lefty, so Woody would love him.

Why did Skyy Clark leave the Illinois program?

He got yelled at.

Someone on the staff is going to need to be early and active as “they” will be.

Yes for sure from the team perspective but I was talking about us posters on here being busy breaking down our games and excited to keep advancing in the tournament.

This thread will be fun the next few months!

As long as we don't get off topic in a way that isn't pumping sunshine.

What are we thinking we need from the portal if the likely scenarios play out?

An Omiyuri sp? type 5 and killers! Wings, SG whatever position you want to call them.  Guys who know what it takes to get it done!

[Ryno6284 3,327]

I want guys who get pissed when they don't get a rebound!  Let's start from there, maybe that is easier?

Completely agree about recruiting attitude through the portal. We have room to grow there.

Adding a wing that could score at all three levels would help XJ along with Gallo making improvements in consistency.

I'm interested to see what we do at the 5 post TJD. A rim protector with mobility but could defend if switched on smaller wings.

Get a quality portal kid regardless of position and then work from there.

hopefully we look at Nicolas Timberlake.

I project Losing Duncomb,, Kopp, Race, TJD, JHS. I think we also lose one of Geronimo/Gunn.

Not as starters but for organizational purposes.

1. X, Cupps
2. Galloway, Bates, Leal
3. Gunn, Newton
4. Geronimo, Banks
5. Reneau

X, Galloway, Bates, Geronimo, Reneau our most likely to be POSSIBLE starters. But not all 5.

Portal-wants.

1. A legit 5/big man. Starter type. Hoping for a home run.
2. An experienced W/G scoring who can shoot. Hoping for a homerun.
3. A back up 5.

Id be happy to see everyone else back, assuming the desire and happiness of the player.

Timberlake from Towson fits 2.  Going to be a lot of competition for him.  Shooting guard who can really shot.

I'd like to see Reneau develop more as a big wing that could play alongside a true big or as the small ball 5. Pick and pops, plus rebounder at the 4, and can still play in the post. I would agree we need a legit 5 starter type. TJD has been great but not sure Reneau is capable of protecting the rim or defending against the bigger 5s in the Big 1.o for an entire game.

Not personally insulting them. And I guess we have different standards. I actually want to do well March. 

You are making a completely different statement/arguement (wanting to do well in March vs having guys that all break down when it gets tough). 
We don’t have different standards. I also want to do well in March, like nearly all other posters, but that has nothing to do with your statement that we have “kids that when it gets tough they ALL break down”  
Not winning a game doesn’t prove that ALL the guys “broke down”. Maybe the other team was better and/or it was a bad game. One team loses every single game…..do you think they all break down when they lose? This team has endured injuries and overcome deficits a number of times this year.  IE, don’t always break down when it gets tough.
