I think anyone who is able to should buy some Unknown merch tomorrow to support Yuri. Even if it isn’t a shirt you would usually wear, you can also give it to your kids, nieces or nephews, etc.

New interest from Forte's twitter follows: -Mo Njie 6'10" 245lb Soph. Center from Eastern Michigan. Averaged 6pts 5reb and 1blk per game in 19mins/game this past year

Hahah love the Mizzou trolls coming out to play. I think Pickett said it best “With the talent they have, you can see they have a lot of good pieces and could win their conference and get to the (NCAA) tournament. That’s really what I’m looking for.” It’s unfortunate that he didn’t see what he was looking for at Mizzou. **incoming SEC>>A10 blah blah our horizon league and MVC transfers are going to revamp our team blah blah blah**

Nice interview, liked the look inside of what an official visit looks like and what sold Kramer on SLU. It’s funny that it actually sounds similar to what some MBM’s have thought the selling pitches have been to other players. Jordan Goodwin “you will be this Marcus smart type player” Gibson “we will use you like these parts of fortes game” Perkins “we want to develop you like javon Bess” okoro “we will use you like these parts of French’s game” Not quoting these from other posters but just can imagine them being part of the pitches.

Oh gotcha, I don’t have any past odds in front of me but would say that is probably better odds than most years

New twitter follows for Phil Forte that are in the transfer portal: -Trendon Hankerson, 6'2 SG, Junior from Northern Illinois (averaged 11, 3, and 2 last year in 33 mins/game) -Dexter Dennis, 6'5 G, Junior from Wichita State (averaged 8, 5, and 1 last year in 31 mins/game) -Juwan Gary, 6'6 SF, RS FR from Alabama (averaged 6p and 3r last year in 15 mins/game) -Morris Udeze, 6'8 F, Junior from Wichita State (averaged 10p and 6r last year in 24 mins/game) -Connor Vanover 7'3 F, Junior from Arkansas (averaged 3p and 2r last year in 7 mins/game, saw minutes cut in half from previous year) -Tyrone Baker 6'11 F, Freshman from Georgia (did not play any meaningful minutes) - follows forte back

I believe he's saying that with SLU's roster for next year he's interested in betting on them at 200 to 1 to win a national title next year.

Some highlights of our newer interest, Chris Loofe playing with Michael Porter Junior Elite

Dunk contest

More Follows for Forte today: -Kaodirichi Akobundu-Ehiogu 6'9 F (Texas Arlington) Good luck Guy Phillips -Jalen Finch 6'1 G (Jacksonville State) -Jacobi Wood 6'1 G (Belmont) follows Forte back -Tyler Beard 6'2 G (Georgetown) -Ben Carlson 6'9 F (Wisconsin) -John Camden 6'8 F (Memphis) shout out @brianstl Side note: Stu Durando has recently followed Grant Basile and Tamell Pearson Also I may be addicted to this......

On the back of Traore's transfer news, new follow of the day: -Peyton Sparks 6'9 C (Ball State) Freshman from Indiana who averaged 13.5 and 8.5 and 70% FT shooter

As everyone else has said, this one makes me sad. Was looking forward to his development. Good luck to him!

That would be insane

New Additions: -Jerrell Colbert 6'10 C (LSU) -Patrick Cartier 6'8 F (Hillsdale College) Interesting one, DII grad transfer with 2 years of eligibility and 2 time DII All American

I believe the issues are with buses carrying student fans and not the basketball team’s bus.

In my twitter work today also found an interesting name that is followed by Giacoletti and Stu Durando, Baba Miller a 6'10 wing that plays for Real Madrid (previously U18 Real Madrid), but hasn't gotten a lot of playing time since his call up. In this write up they have a lot of praise for him. "I’m pretty high on Baba Miller since Real Madrid signed him. Coaches always say he is a very coachable and unselfish guy. I think it’s very important for him to have tons of minutes to develop his talent at a competitive level, so maybe a college program could be a perfect option for him. In my view he is the U18 prospect with the highest upside and ceiling we’ve had here since Luka Doncic. If his progression goes the right way when his draft arrives, I see him as a sure first round pick and a lottery in the best scenario." https://id-prospects.com/baba-miller-scouting-report/ Sounds like a reach recruit for SLU but would be awesome.

Am bored today so made a list of guys that are currently in the transfer portal that Phil Forte follows on twitter: -Chance Moore 6'5 G (Arkansas) -K.J Williams 6'10 F (Murray State) -David Skogman 6'10 C (Buffalo) -Dalen Ridgnal 6'7 F (Georgia) -Eric Williams Jr 6'7 F (Oregon, follows Forte back) -Ben Vander Plas 6'8 F (Ohio) -Wesley Cardet Jr 6'6 G (Samford, follows Forte back) -Javon Pickett 6'5 G (Mizzou) -Kale Catchings 6'6 F (Harvard) -Keylan Boone 6'8 G (Oklahoma State, follows Forte back) -Tamell Pearson 6'10 F (Western Illinois, follows Forte back) -Will Richard 6'5 G(Belmont) -Grant Basile 6'9 F (Wright State) I know some guys have been talked about on here and some may be from previous HS recruiting but I thought it was an interesting list to fuel the wild speculation.

I know it's not going to happen but would love to see Illini fans reactions if Terrance Shannon has a dream with a billiken in it
