That's the one radio show he just should avoid, there is zero to gain from it. Any other show in Chicago would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigruss Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 Rumors swirling that Illinois is backing off of Lovett, thinking that he won't qualify. Man that sucks if true, would love to have him learn for a year (Abrams/Tate/Lovett in that order) then split time with a SR Tate before taking fully over. Â Guess we'll be waiting another year for a pg... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amazing. 58 kids, but I get your point. Amazing on two counts: 1) the lack of talent on the roster that Butch has had to turn over; and 2) the fact that he's been able to fit that many kids into 2 classes.

bigruss Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 DJ has always been underwhelming at Simeon, he also has played out of position there quite a bit. He'll be a solid contributor with potential for more, and I'm just fine with that. He's got a ton of skill, hopefully he learns to be more aggressive so that he uses it and can reach that potential.

That's the thing, he isn't a poor shooter, he actually has a really nice shot/offensive skills. He just needs to use them and learn to be aggressive. Hopefully he gets there, worst case is he's somewhat like Joe Bertrand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well not just another top state recruit, but top PG from Illinois. Honestly, the only reason Lovett should want to go to SJU over Illinois is because of academic eligibility, dude would be surrounded by talent and would be given the keys as a sophomore (would just have to share with Tate), that has to be a big selling part to any PG. Â That said, this staff has missed time after time for a top flight pg, even though the offense should be centered around it. It honestly baffles me that we can't convince a top kid to see the amount of playing time/opportunity that they could have here, it could be the downfall of the current staff if they don't get one in 2016.

caulfield12 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) It would be nice if Iowa could find a young PG with athleticism, too. Edited February 22, 2015 by caulfield12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
