Ka'Ra Stewart got kicked off of Mizzou's team for marijuana arrest. Wonder if TB is good with 2nd chances?

Do you think he'll flip if MSU offers?

Wow. Reggie spearman treatment is right. I am committed to Illinois but looking at other places also... Uhh, what? Lol I don't think I will ever get that. Would be good to keep him, but I wouldn't be devastated.. Didn't realize he was that highly regarded of in the state

I'd say there's a very good chance. But there's also a very good chance he stays with us.

So what is that? A 60/60 chance for us?

If i were a betting man I'd say 60/40 us... But I have no inside info. But from the look of that article he never really conveyed that he would really think about flipping if they offer. I think he likes our coaching staff and the atmosphere.

Ilovetheillini · Dec 18, 2012, 04:52 PM

I am really bummed that Kragen flipped. Should i expect us to get another DE?

I hope we can hold on to Jones

Ander1345 · Dec 18, 2012, 06:50 PM

Not bad considering our on the field the production. obviously still some time left for classes to take shape but you have to like where we are considering the circumstances.

there is absolutely nothing wrong(in this case it was the only option) with going with quick middle range recruits that are looking to play.

it just has to translate to wins now. It just has to.

Nice thing about being at the bottom is there is nowhere to go but up

illinidarrin · Dec 18, 2012, 07:33 PM

I dont have premium, but i just saw an interesting headline from Rivals about Gibbs. "Gibbs getting the feel for Illinois again". I'm hoping that means that he is really thinking about committing again.

Yes!!! Do you think we will get another DE since Kragen has left us?
