Why are we down to eleven scholarships for 2024-2025 and only seven for 2025-2026? Whatever it was, it must have been pretty serious. The penalty is for having obnoxious fans on a teams message board. Quote

I don't know how else to present future scholarships so I just use the "Open". But you see each year how many new recruits would be added to replace graduating Seniors. Assuming there are no transfers, etc which we know by now is not likely. So if you add 2 recruits in 2023 to the 4 recruits in 2024 and the one recruit in 2025 with the 6 players currently on the team you end up with a 13 player roster. I really hope that helps. Quote

We're so close to PCCC, sometimes their education gets in the Akron water. The effects aren't permanent, just temporary paralysis of above-basic thought. Gets one of us every once in a while. One suggestion, maybe you could put the previous year(s)'s recruit in the blank slots. i.e. For 2024, there are two blank spots, so it would be "2023 Recruit" in both, and so on. Or leave it blank so Can't State fans can't crack the code. Your call, @Illini Zip. Thank you for doing this for the board! 1 Quote

Sorry to hear that about Akron’s water supply. Ha!! Quote

Illini Zip Posted November 8, 2022 Report Posted November 8, 2022 I will update this chart hopefully this week. Been away from my desktop computer for awhile. Sorry for the delay. Go Zips!! 3 Quote
Illini Zip Posted November 23, 2022 Report Posted November 23, 2022 Zips add Darrian Baker and Marvin Musiime-Kamali. Also, I am making an assumption that Ryan Prather Jr and Prince Mosengo are red-shirting. 1 Quote
Illini Zip Posted November 23, 2022 Report Posted November 23, 2022 (edited) I am hopeful Mikal Dawson gets another year of eligibility due to his injury. I made that correction here. Edited November 23, 2022 by Illini Zip 1 Quote
Illini Zip Posted March 24, 2023 Report Posted March 24, 2023 (edited) Garvin Clarke, Kobe Mitchell and Prince Mosengo depart. Zips add Shammah Scott. Edited March 24, 2023 by Illini Zip 4 3 Quote
Reslife4Life Posted May 4, 2023 Report Posted May 4, 2023 Five seniors, those are teams that go far 4 Quote
Illini Zip Posted May 11, 2023 Report Posted May 11, 2023 Ali Ali returns and the Zips add Zachary Halligan. (Sorry for the delays guys.) 5 Quote
Illini Zip Posted November 17, 2023 Report Posted November 17, 2023 I believe the dust has settled for this period. The only question I have at the moment is when will Ali Ali get the green light to play. But I'm assuming it will be this year sometime. I'm staying with Mikal Dawson as a Junior with another year of eligibility. Marvin Musiime-Kamali and Darrian Baker are red-shirting this year. And the Zips added Rich Brisco, Eric Mahaffey and Sharron Young for the 2024-5 season leaving 2 scholarships open. 3 2 Quote

Zippy87 Posted January 13, 2024 Report Posted January 13, 2024 With Freeman, Ali, Tribble, Thornton, Hunter all graduating and Prather, Tavari, and Lyles all transfer candidates, there could be a ton of turnover this offseason. Quote

My guess is Prather is likely a transfer considering his lack of playing time. But Tavari and Lyles should be back. 1 Quote

Regardless, I'm glad we have guys like Sharron Young coming in (just got nominated to be a McDonalds All American). Quote
GJGood Posted February 24, 2024 Report Posted February 24, 2024 If Tavari and Prather stick around they would immediately be key contributors in 2024-25. I hope they both stay. I would love to see Lyles develop here as well but he seems to be a foul magnet, so I am not sold on him. Quote
Blue & Gold Posted February 25, 2024 Report Posted February 25, 2024 I was watching Prather during pregame warmups & he has the smoothest 3-point stroke on the team. Effortless. If the game slows down for him just a tad he could be something. 3 Quote

That looks so good already with one scholly left. Wow. Obviously guys like Prather, Nate, Tavari, and Scott need to take the next steps, but this roster is so much better already with those 2 P5 additions. 2 Quote
