Cuz he saw how much Biefledt helped Indiana? I would've rather they let Spike stay here but they're high on Simpson coming in.

But if the guy isnt even good enough for you to suit him up, dont you want him taking a scholarship on a team instead of a good player? It makes no sense to me.

 

 

And Simpson is awesome, love him as s player.

Didn't he quit for the sake of his long term health?

 

Originally, yes. But after sitting out, he can't leave a year on the table.

Spike would look great in Valpo's back court next year, and it would put him close to home again.

So now not leaving a year on the table is more important than his long term health?

Apparently.

I don't get the point of blocking Spike and I'm a Michigan fan. Let him go wherever. Who knows if he can even stay healthy. Coaches have reasons that aren't made public. Happens all the time.

Right, let him tie up a scholly that a good player could have taken.

He would be a great player at a mid major. I always thought that was the route he was going to go after watching him play for a few years in HS. It amazed me he made Michigan's team, and contributed.

So Illinois insider people on twitter seem to think Tilmon to Illinois is a done deal, with Goodwin to follow. Announcement in the next week or two. If true, finally some positive news for the program

It looks like Meyer changed his prediction to Tilmon to Illinois today also. If they could get Tilmon and Goodwin in the mix, this would arguably be the best Illini recruiting class since the Self era.

NCAA releases statement confirming that South Carolina was mistakenly told it was in the NCAA tournament.

 

If you're a grad transfer, particularly one who was told there's no scholis left, you should not be restricted anywhere IMO.

I don't think any student athlete should have to sit out a full year if they transfer. But you can only transfer once to be eligible in 4 or 5 years.

Again, good for Spike.

I know Illinois has interest. I hope he has it in us.

He'd be a great fit for a team that needs a smart PG.

I hear #Vanderbilt has been waiting on Bryce Drew. NIT is over...just a matter of time.

Yep, have a feeling GT is going to end up with a terrible hire

I don't see a big program taking that risk on him. His hips are still bad. Hope I'm wrong

Drew to GT all but official

Not a fan of Drew, huh?

Big fan, was worried yesterday when it seemed Vandy would get Drew. Kind of surreal that Roger Powell might be an assistant at GT.

Ha, I missed the Vanderbilt part of that tweet, I thought it was referring to GT. Never mind.

Drew was one of the runners up at ISU.

It's interesting, as some members of Valpo Athletic Dept. are saying the rumor is inaccurate while some of the best GT sources say it's absolutely legit and should be announced early next week.

Drew to Vandy. Makes sense to me as that is a pretty good educational institution, and one that is pretty faithful to their coaches.
