I hope you are correct. If think Brad has been good in the NIL era
but I also feel like that is partially because Illinois got into the NIL game early. Now with others opening the purse, will Brad be able to stack teams with consistent roster construction? You may be correct, the opportunity to be wrong seems magnified in this day and age though. Previous Message Work out. He knows he is going to be able to assemble a Top 15 level team or better. He knows how this all works….he’s been on of the best GMs in the NIL era. Previous Message I'm glad the kids have a chance to make some money off of NIL, but damn is it hard to keep up with who is where doing what. Did we Crean them or did they fall out with Brad? So many stories going in so many directions. You used to have a fairly good idea of how good you might be next year. Now, I have zero idea what to expect. We could be a NC contender or we could get completely passed up by superior roster construction. Previous Message Hopefully he ends up at SLU with the other Indiana state players. He’d pair well with Cream Abdul Jabar. Previous Message Except winners don’t stay. Previous Message I’m going to go ahead and get out in front of this one early….. We need to drop Jason Jakstys before he comes to campus. In the Wild West of free agency every year, we have no room for this type of 3-5 year project. He won’t be ready for years. This type of player needs to go straight to a directional school, redshirt for a year, play 2, then transfer up to the big leagues once he’s worth a damn. Sorry kid, but we need your slot for someone who can contribute now. See you in 3 years….maybe.
