Another year down the drain.. why does Yak plays his starters the entire game when they playing like 💩. Hopefully we see an news article similar to coach Mullins tmr morning. Favoritism, doesn't work in basketball the entire season. Real coaches play to win.

Ojukwu had 10 points in 9 minutes and Fens 3 pts 3 boards in 4 minutes. If both along with Clay Got consistent minutes all year and were part of the rotation this team would of been a lot better. I suspect of those 3 2 transfer. Jones to me is 50-50 on transferring unless he wants to play with Carlos Harris. As I stated my buddy is an nba executive he said Carlos Harris is a stud and was vastly under recruited and will be a great find for Uic. Jones can move to 2 guard and play along side of him. Any idea if Rivera has eligibility left? I really think Yak needs to go. How can a team come out of the second half so bad back to back games? Does he not know how to make adjustments?

Guys fun chatting this year. I wish there was more positive to talk about but It was a really ugly season. I was thinking this morning there is no way Yak isn't back, you lose Yak you lose Harris and I don't think it's worth it to be honest.

I think gone for sure is Kennedy, no more eligibility, and Okani, who i believe grad transfers elsewhere. I think Rivera has a year left of eligibility and comes back. I hope CJ comes back, a potential backcourt of CJ, Harris, and Rivera would be nice. Replacing Okani's rebounds and defense will be hard, but I hope we can.
I might be wrong about eligibility; this whole transfer thing is so confusing.
Govey, I agree with your friend; you look at Harris's offer sheet, and there are not that many schools. Would have probably gone to Champaign had they not signed another pg.

On Senior night, they recognized Okani and Kennedy so assuming that Rivera plans to use his extra year.
I hate speculating on who will or won’t be returning. I just hope that whatever happens, it does so in a timely manner for us and for them.
CJ made strides and show he can be a scoring force. He can help form a formidable backcourt at UIC.
Excited about what a summer of Ojukwu could bring. He has crazy energy on both sides of the ball but it’s be smarter especially on defense. Great size for a guard.
I still think Clay can be a very good player.
Fens looked bigger this year and had expectations but was perplexing to say the least. Does he have a fit? Does he need work? Those questions answer if he returns or not.
Will be another busy offseason. Many questions.

Uic John Fens played 5 min a game how are you supposed to develop? At the least he could set picks block shots and board. He needs time.

I agree. When I said perplexing, I should have added it was perplexing he didn’t get more of a chance.

The writings been on the wall for some time now for Ford. Considering the rumors about moving conferences and a new university president, maybe a fresh start was needed.
