Matjek Bosnjak is a Shocker!

I think he meant for the game Monday

They're gonna have to buy some platform shoes for RDIII.

So sick of this crap. Predictable. We always seem to screw this up somehow. I'm not holding my breath. I hate to be so pessimistic but we have a track record.

[asiseeit]

Well, I am not as optimistic as I was a week or two ago. I was counting on MB and Meeks. Now seeing a season a game or two north of.500 and no NIT. Watch KP average a double double for the season.

[MadDog]

Just my opinion, but Degray was way better than MB in the first game. I don’t think the situation looks so grim.

[ShockerExpress]

To be clear, the Taylor tweet saying he wasn’t likely to be eligible was from a day or two ago. And was him, I assume, guessing - based on how all this has gone.

The one saying he would likely get a decision before the opener - was Mills at his presser this morning. Seems like maybe he (Mills) was just being overly optimistic, but perhaps he knows something?

I think the only way he becomes eligible is when he announces he’s transferring to Kentucky.

or…

The NCAA announces he’s eligible this season on February 28, 2025.

*******: "llinois center and Croatia native Tomislav Ivisic is eligible this season, the school announced, following the completion of an NCAA eligibility review. Ivisic, who will be classified as a sophomore, will make a financial repayment by donating to a charity of his choice as part of the reinstatement process."

Yeah, right.

And then the books "get fixed".

Excuse my ignorance, but what are the "financial repayments" for? Did he get a loan? Is it a fee?

[Shocktoberfest]

It's laughable that the NCAA pretends to have any teeth enforcing these rules. I'm in the camp of just play him and dare them to stop us. Then sue. Why not?

There is NO WAY KP goes for a double double, unless the items are soft three foot misses, and times beat back on defense...and I LIKED him!!!

I believe it’s because he was paid to play… which is ironic.

You mean like every D-1 athlete who receives NIL payments?

No no no. That’s way different.
