2025 Transfer portal thread

I don't think this would be an issue. CMP wouldn't take someone that either doesn't fit the system or wouldn't 'gel' with the family environment.

I trust whomever CMP brings-in to play what position is of need.

I'm going to try to nuance this a bit that I believe is just slightly more accurate as to is what you stated as I essentially agree.

I believe Matt will attempt to bring in the particular "skill sets" that will significantly decrease the most vulnerable areas OR decrease the most vulnerable areas, but adding strengths perhaps in other areas as he "weighs" those attributes of potential players that could be a fit culturally AND play 1 to 2 years. We just have no idea who fits all the criteria...AND not all players have the same time before committing and so does Matt hold out for the best should it happen or just take a good player which is just a much shorter timeline than typical recruiting IMO

I have no clue on this but could he be ready to contribute next year??! 🤷‍♂️

He looks good on the film….quick feet and soft hands. Feel like those are good pieces to have

Yeah saw some highlights. Not bad. Wonder how he’d do in the big ten /compares to berg.

Braden Smith from Temu destinations:

Wings in portal Cooper Koch from Iowa we recruited him out of Hs and Billy Smith from Bellermine, he’s actually from Indy…

I posted a separate thread about Koch yesterday

Would be nice having some sort of rim protector for next year...(Not counting out DJ but coming back after a year off may be slow going)

Mainly people claiming they know something they probably don't.

For the record, I claim to know nothing.

I tell work the same thing; they don't believe me.

I’m wondering about Burgess, seems to fallen out of the rotation and berg playing instead, could paint know he’s leaving?

I wouldn’t read too much into it. I think that Berg offers a little more defensively at the moment.

Isn't Burgess also hurt or something?

When I first saw this picture I thought that Coleman Hawkins was in the portal again.

Creditable source saying he has expressed interest in playing in the B1G. Could bode well for Purdue.

Let's put 7'4 and 7' around Trey and go. Ready, break! If we get another stud 7-footer the other BT teams will have a fit.

Reminds me if Hammons

 

[jdbrees922]

But we are a top 10 offense in the nation?

My point is we get carried away at times with the pick n roll. We are much better when we move the ball and players move.

 

[jdbrees922]

Looks like another week of speculation cause we are advancing and off season not here yet

Good, sort of wish the thread was locked until the season ends.

Saw a post by some Illinois insider who said you’ll see DGL, Booth and Ty Rogers all hit the portal shortly. Don’t want any of them but thought it was interesting because it looked like DGL had carved out a role for a minute but nope.

Ever since he tweeted out the “hahahahhaa” tweet after finally beating Purdue, he didn’t score a point. He actually didn’t score in his last 7 games.

Booth for sure is gone. Id expect Rodgers gone too like you said.

We did offer him back in 2020…

He didn’t score a point against us which made that post even more hilarious.

I honestly feel bad for him because he was doing well and then Brad was like “nah, I like Boswell and Junkysausage turning the ball over 12 times a game”. I wish him the best and hope he finds a better spot.

And his mom is a nutcase... we don't need that lingering around here.. again.

Has his mom been posting?

 

[ChoiceBeef]

Has his mom been posting?

She has but honestly hasn’t been that bad as of late. She is pissed about Brad and Illinois staff choices not to play him. She pointed out that the other guards turnover the ball constantly and don’t get benched like DGL.
