It's that time of year. All basketball transfer portal news will go there.

The men's basketball transfer window runs Monday, March 24 - Tuesday, April 22.

They didn't have much of a case, IMO. He played in 5 games during the disputed season, so.

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. — The Illinois football program’s waiver for DL TeRah Edwards to be eligible in 2025 has been denied. Edwards will now enter the NFL Draft.

Statement from Bret Bielema

“We are disappointed by the NCAA’s decision to deny TeRah Edwards’ waiver for eligibility in 2025. We submitted TeRah’s case in January with the belief that his unique circumstances were grounds for the NCAA to grant him eligibility this season. Last week, we were informed that he would not get the season that we believe he deserves.

What can’t be denied is TeRah’s toughness, positive outlook, and leadership throughout this process. TeRah’s focus has been on what he can control and what’s ahead, as evidenced during his impressive testing at our NFL Pro Day. He has been committed every day to making his NFL dreams a reality.

TeRah has made a lasting impact on our program and our defensive line room. He has a bright future, both in the NFL and beyond.”

Statement from TeRah Edwards

“I appreciate the University of Illinois for fighting on my behalf and will forever be grateful for everything this program has done for me. This journey has shaped me in ways I’ll never forget, but I’m confident it’s time to take that next step toward the NFL and embrace what’s ahead.”

Someone posted on the Henson board that we were closer to a Natty in football than in basketball.

I have to believe that is true right now.

Who would have dreamed that a year ago?

That is coming back for sure?

His results came back. I don’t have it all written down but he ran a 4.61 forty. Not really the fastest. Thoughts on where he ends up getting drafted? Not seeing him going in round 2 or 3 now. For some reason I thought I read that the WR class this year was considered deep.

Breaking story.
