2020 Bball Recruiting- Guard (IL) Adam Miller possibly in play

Submitted by woosterwolverine1224 on April 15th, 2020 at 7:54 PM

For those who have not been following the recruiting chaos of the past few days. Current Illinois commit and 4* Adam Miller (SG) did NOT sign with Illinois yet and it is believed that if Ayo Dosunmu does not stay in the draft, Miller will sign with Michigan. This would be a GREAT pick up and could start the Juwan and Chicago pipeline, granted as of right now, this will all depend on Dosunmu. Ayo declared tonight but left the door open to return so hopefully this one can fall for the good guys. 

Also, those on Twitter should follow The Real Sources. Former player Ant Wright has pushed them and they seem to have incredible connections to the high school basketball travel circuit.

 

There is speculation that Adam Miller may not sign with Illinois.

If your going to Illinois its for playing time. If you gotta sit behind a player and earn time should come to a school that will actually develop you and let you get Media attention in the NCAA tourney. rather than 11th place in the big 10 and no playoffs.

Show him Nunez game footage and tell him this is the guy he has to compete against for minutes. That should do the trick

What cracks me up about situations like this is hes waiting on his decision based solely on whether another player comes back or not and then you have UK and Duke who can sign 7 five stars every year and none have any issues with potential playing time throughout the process.

The players aren't all alike. You rarely see two 5* bigs in the same class. Miller was never going to be interested in Duke or Kentucky. I don't think his issue is playing time either. He wants to be the star guard on his team. He recognizes Ayo will be if he returns.

This would be a nice get as Michigan is going to be paper thin depth wise (if there is a) next year. We really don't have a 3rd guard at this point. Bajema is essentially going to be forced into the DDJ role so I hope he is at least ready to contribute offensively. Nunez is likely going to need to see the court most games as well so I hope he can at least be Just A Shooter.

Brandon Johns may end up being the primary backup for 3 different positions. Williams & Dickinson are going to see minutes regardless if theyre ready due to lack of bodies. And this is assuming we have Livers/Franz on the roster. If either of them leave our entire bench is true freshman and sophmores who couldnt get on the court; that will be ugly.

I am sure as hell glad we have Austin Davis right now.
