Remains involved off the bench Goode finished Wednesday's 96-91 OT loss to Northwestern with eight points (2-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 21 minutes.
Impact Goode saw 21 minutes of action during Wednesday's loss to the Wildcats, closing with eight points, four rebounds and one assist. The 6-foot-7 junior, who recently returned to the bench following Terrence Shannon's return to action, continued to see a steady role against Northwestern. Goode has averaged 7.5 points, 4.1 rebounds and 0.6 assists on 24.2 minutes per game this season (19 appearances). and he figures to remain solidified in Illinois' rotation moving forward.
JANUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE
Moves to starting lineup Goode will start against Farleigh-Dickinson on Friday, Jeremy Werner of 247Sports.com reports.
Impact Goode will replace Terrence Shannon (suspension) in the starting lineup. This will be his first start of the campaign. He's averaging 7.5 points and 4.5 rebounds per game in 2023-24.
DECEMBER 29, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Converts from deep in win Goode finished with nine points (3-5 FG, 3-5 3Pt) and six rebounds across 18 minutes during Monday's 80-52 victory over Eastern Illinois.
Impact Goode knocked down 3-of-5 shots from deep while hauling in six rebounds during Monday's win over Eastern Illinois. The 6-foot-7 junior appeared in only 10 games last season due to a foot injury, averaging four points and 1.6 rebounds on 13.7 minutes per game. Goode saw a sizable role in the Fighting Illini's opener, but it remains to be seen how rotations will align themselves against tougher competition.
NOVEMBER 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Makes season debut Goode closed with zero points (0-1 FG) in five minutes during Saturday's 69-60 victory over Rutgers.
Impact While Goode didn't see significant run in his season debut, he was one of just three Illini reserves to see the court, which is a good sign for his prospects moving forward. The 6-7 wing could provide some outside shooting off the bench down the stretch after going 16-for-43 (37.2 percent) from distance across 28 appearances in his freshman season.
FEBRUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Stays on bench Saturday Goode (foot) did not take the court in Saturday's 81-79 loss to Iowa.
Impact Good was dressed and declared to be available prior to the game, but he ultimately didn't make his season debut. Saturday's tilt happened to be an intense, back-and-forth showdown between conference opponents jockeying for position in the standings, so it's possible a potentially-rusty Goode simply wasn't yet a rotation factor. Goode's true availability and spot in the rotation pecking order will likely be disclosed Tuesday when the Illini host Minnesota -- a team dead last in the conference with a 1-11 record in league play.
FEBRUARY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Officially active Saturday Goode will be active for the first time all season as the Illini get set to face off versus Iowa on Saturday, Scott Richey of The Champaign News-Gazette reports.
Impact Goode was able to return to practice this week and will be available to play Saturday for the first time all year. The 6-7 sophomore will provide some additional depth after averaging just under nine minutes per game a season ago.
FEBRUARY 4, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to practice Goode (foot) will be in uniform for Saturday's game against Iowa, Joey Wagner of 247Sports reports.
Impact Goode returned to practice on Thursday for the first time this season after sustaining a foot injury. Though he will be in uniform, it is unclear if he will be cleared to play. If he is unable to play, his next chance to return is Tuesday against Minnesota.

Not fully practicing yet Illinois head coach Brad Underwood said Monday that Goode (foot) is "not in full practice yet" and remains without a clear timeline to resume playing, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports r...
Impact Goode is scheduled to have a doctor's appointment next week before Illinois provides another updates on his status, so the 6-foot-7 wing can safely be ruled out for games Tuesday versus Ohio State, Saturday at Wisconsin and Jan. 31 versus Nebraska, at a minimum. After appearing in 28 games for the Illini in 2021-22 and averaging 2.0 points in 8.9 minutes per game, Goode has yet to play this season while he works his way back from a fractured left foot.
JANUARY 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Making strides in recovery Head coach Brad Underwood said Thursday that Goode (foot) is working back towards practice participation, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact Goode had a doctor's appointment Thursday and things seem to be trending in the right direction for his potential return. The 6-7 sophomore suffered a bone fracture and was forced to undergo surgery shortly before the season kicked off. The team should have a better idea of his timeline once Goode starts getting incorporated in practice.
JANUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Doctor's appointment Thursday Goode (foot) has a doctor's appointment Thursday, according to Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports.
Impact The appointment should help Goode receive a better timetable concerning his return date. Ideally for him, the new estimate will be more accurate than a "few weeks" Illinois' head coach said during December.
JANUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Could return during January Goode (foot) could return during January, according to Andy Kimball of the Decatur Herald.
Impact Four days before 2023, Illinois' head coach Brad Underwood said Goode could be "back sometime in the next few weeks." He is expected to sit out when Illinois and Northwestern play on Wednesday. However, Underwood's statement indicates Goode could return during mid-January.
JANUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Sheds walking boot Goode (foot) was seen getting shots up ahead of Saturday's game against Alabama A&M without a walking boot, Scott Richey of The Champaign News-Gazette reports.
Impact Saturday marks the first time Goode has been seen working out without a walking boot. Head coach Brad Underwood mentioned there is hope Goode could be back at the start of the calendar year, so look for him to potentially be back Jan. 4 against Northwestern if all goes well.
DECEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Set to be reevaluated in six weeks Goode underwent successful foot surgery and will be reevaluated in six weeks, 247 Sports reports.
Impact Goode suffered a bone fracture in the team's secret scrimmage against Kansas a couple weeks ago. Goode was expected to take on a larger role this season, but this surgery has thrown a wrench in those plans. A best case scenario seems to be a return to game action by mid-December.
NOVEMBER 7, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Suffers foot fracture Goode sustained a bone fracture in his left foot during Saturday's scrimmage against Kansas and will undergo surgery on Friday, Jeremy Werner of 247Sports reports.
Impact The timetable for Goode's return has yet to be determined, but he likely won't be available for the team's season opener on Nov. 7 against Eastern Illinois. In his first season with the Fighting Illini, the 6-foot-7 forward saw very limited action off the bench. Goode is still expected to see restricted playing time in 2022, but Ty Rodgers, Ramses Melendez and Matthew Mayer are in line for added minutes while the sophomore remains sidelined.

Illinois basketball: Q&A with head coach Brad Underwood
Illinois basketball coach Brad Underwood discusses his new-look team, recent NCAA Tournament woes and more, John Fanta writes.SEPTEMBER 20, 2022
Effective off bench Goode (back) closed Friday's 94-85 victory over UT Rio Grande Valley with five points (2-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one block in 18 minutes.
Impact Goode missed back-to-back games due to injury, but returned Friday as the Illini's leading reserve in both scoring and minutes played. While the 6-7 wing made a valuable contribution here, there likely won't be as many minutes to go around once Andre Curbelo (neck) and Trent Frazier (knee) are able to return.
NOVEMBER 27, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Out Tuesday Goode (back) won't play in Tuesday's contest against Kansas State, Jeremy Werner of 274 Sports reports.
Impact Goode wasn't participating in pregame warmups prior to Tuesday's matchup, so it appears likely that the guard will miss a second straight game. The freshman may be available to return against Texas Rio Grande Valley on Friday.
NOVEMBER 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Out with back spasms Monday Goode will not be available Monday against Cincinnati due to back spasms, Scott Beatty of 93.9 FM WDWS reports.
Impact It's unclear if Goode will be able to return in tomorrow's game against Arkansas or Kansas State. Goode is unlikely to provide much of an impact this season off the bench.
