Is Zachary Halligan a walk on and I saw that he played a little in 23-24 but not last year. I saw that he is a local guy but curious why he did not play last year considering we had numerous blowouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering myself if he had made the court and I was just fixated on Evan Wilson. I do think the walk-on role as we have known it could die off while being replaced by a couple more managers and a few redshirt freshmen each year.

Unfortunately Zach was injured this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maintaining stability in the backcourt is key. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This coming season will be used to evaluate what we have and what we'll need to target in the portal. The more players that develop, the less we'll need to target.

Let'sGoZips94 Posted Friday at 04:26 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 04:26 AM (edited) Eric Mahaffey has allegedly grown to 6'6". He's the same height as his brother now without the muscle build (yet). @Illini Zip Sorry you have to do more scholarship chart work than originally expected.
