Been reading posts on here for years, however I'm getting season tickets this year so I figured it would be a good time for me to join this group!

 

Anyway, I like the signing of Muila.  Whether he ends up being a starter or not, its good to see this for depth!

I absolutely LOVE the tweet from Hank Plona...... " JD is an elite defender, the best leader/teammate, great rebounder, and ultimate winner! JD is a future pro".  The parts that excite me the most are "elite defender" and "great rebounder".  Can't wait

Muila just committed to SIU, per Heff on Twitter!

 Nice we have our big 

Would it be okay to maybe get another?  Asking for a friend.  😉 

 

yes, i've always dreamed of taking on two on the same day.

hats off to wood.

I cannot help but find it mildly amusing that we surmise, tout, and expouse the virtues of various named “possibles”, and then boom, out of nowhere comes an unheard of player to fill the gap. Who had heard of Marcus Domask before he committed, or of JD Muila? See what I’m saying?

GREAT NEWS!!!  

Now add Filewich or D'Avanzo or both!  D'Avanzo would be a one year player and is a stretch post player.  He would be a good complement on the court to Muila, Dembele, and Filewich.   Filewich would be a four year player and is a Cameron Krutwig type player.  He has a very high basketball IQ and can find the open man on double teams. He could even red shirt if needed if D'Avanzo signs on!

 

Or Louth Coulibaly... the guy is an animal!

I agree. Not sure why we haven't officially offered. This kid is a beast under the boards. Good student; 4.0 GPA.

During my research on recruits today, I noticed that many of them are listed as Honor Students or High IQ.  Seems Mullins is indeed going after high calibre individuals.  👍

I was skeptical at first, but after doing my homework its pretty clear Muila is a perfect fit! Now I wanna be greedy and see us snag D'Avanzo AND Coulibaly. 😎

I like this kid. Among other things I love the way he finishes under the basket. He goes right up strong with the ball and doesn't take that unnecessary extra dribble our bigs did and end up losing the ball.

Really glad to see Mullins finally listened to the expert advice here and (no doubt reluctantly) decided to recruit a big! I really don't think he realized we needed one, so good work, Insiders!

I'm sure if we all keep talking about that need, he might just sign another one, so keep the pressure on, guys! 

🙄 😆

Looks like JD has had some knee issues the last few seasons, albeit minor this past year.  Still, everything I've read continues to talk about his defense, heart and leadership.  Exactly what Mullins was looking for and what this team needed.

Out of curiosity, how many offers did JD Muila have?

I told you to have faith in what wood said. 

Wasn't a lock....just a tidbit here and there.  

You scooped Heff by a good 2 hours lol 

Heff might have been tipped off but I think he got it from Muila's instagram post lol
