And dribbling and playing some sort of coherent defense.  

Man, you're brutal sometimes, but right.

Would be a tough miss for U of I.

He took a quick under the radar visit to Michigan but was supposed to visit Kansas State and Baylor after that.  Would think Michigan is not the leader given their lack of NIL funding.

Baylor and Utah listed as possibilities

Yep, just read about Utah.

If Illinois is no longer leading for Ray J. Dennis, that might also be an indication that Shannon might be coming back.  He was still up in the air on his decision although from the sound of it I believe Coleman Hawkins will be leaving (even though he will be a mid second round pick).

One thing I will say is that Spencer is a great role player to whoever gets him but sounds like he’ll get NIL money like s superstar because of how bare the portal is in really great shooters now.

I would guess we have as good a shot as anyone. He’s played us and knows the history = $ and we need a shooter.

Talking with a UK fan today who was complaining about Cals inability to work the portal. Said he preferred when players were paid under the table LOL! I reminded him they were bringing in a great class.

Wing Kevin McCullar returning to Kansas for his extra covid year.  Solidifies MM's decision to go to IU.

Possible I've missed some news the last few days - but seems the rumor mill is pretty quiet re: the last scholarship? Feels like I've mostly seen speculation but not really reporting. I know these things take time so not worried, just eager for some IUBB news like we all are lol. 

Maybe things will start to heat up around the deadline to withdraw from the NBA draft process

I made a similar comment last week. My take is that quiet is good — if they hadn’t locked onto a mutually interested option we’d be hearing them connected to every available guard

Google says May 31 is the last day to drop from the draft. I suspect things will heat up in the next week or two with the bigger names.

Of course they did, but it’s an even playing field.  The groups that have bashed the NIL are the ones who cheated to begin with or the schools that don’t have as good NIL programs, like Turdue

Anyone else find it funny that one of the schools with NIL troubles is Michigan? I guess a lot has changed for them in the last 30 years since the Fab Five. Really ironic since one of the members of that class is now the coach.

My guess is more of the NIL money is filtering to their football team.
