No, I had already answered it but I will post again: I think the questions you raised are all very valid so it's far from a sure thing. I expect some bumps in the road during the non-con season. 5 minutes ago, IUFLA said: And, uh, you do realize you can put a picture right into the response rather than just linking it, right? Or no?

Uh...a "follow up" that is all about a different team? Well no doubt IU has more proven players, they bring back most of the team that came within 30 points of making it to the first weekend of the dance. TJD is do doubt more proven that just about any B1G player. Thompson's a nice role player and Johnson is good but erratic. No one knows how good freshmen will be, but I like Clark and Rodgers quite a bit. But I think your point was that Illinois has a lot of unproven talent, which again I've already agreed. 1 minute ago, IUFLA said: Illinois Loyalty looks like a 7th grader wrote it using Wordpad...

I mean, you don't have to agree, but it's not like the case for why Illinois will be good this year doesn't exist. To answer your questions, they don't have a Trayce Jackson-Davis All-American but Matthew Mayer and Terrence Shannon are proven DI players as good or better than Xavier and Race. Skyy Clark and Ty Rodgers aren't quite rated as high as JHS and Renau, but they're high four star Top 50 recruits we'd be thrilled to land. RJ Melendez and Coleman Hawkins provide breakout potential, like we have in Geronimo and Bates. It's a lot of new pieces, but they have a proven coach who won the Big Ten last season after losing an All-American to the draft. BartTorvik has the Illinois at 13 to start the season, right there with Indiana at 11 as favorites in the Big Ten. FWIW, here are his 2023 Projected Contributors in the Big Ten. Illinois is well represented. I'd be optimistic if that was Indiana's team heading into the season, so I don't really get the antagonism. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
