Here's a list of the last centers we have offered (I think I got them all. Also big shout out to rbachhuber for maintaining the scholarship grid). I have added some notes that are definitely not definitive about their/our chances etc. They are just some notes I have gleaned from the interweb that may be of interest and that may also indicate their inclination to committing to Illinois.
Balsa Koprivica C The 2019 5-star Serbian giant says that "Baylor, Florida State, and Gonzaga have been the main schools involved." I could find no indication that he has any interest in Illinois. UVs to Louisville (twice), Baylor, FSU, Kentucky, Miami (twice) and UCF. OA to Baylor. Said to be ready to release his final list soon. He said this back in July and nothing so far. I also happened to notice an old, over one year old article about his involvement in the fbi investigation into college basketball. But nothing since then
Kai Jones C Final 3--FSU,Texas and Baylor.
Tre Mitchell C 3 CBs to Notre Dame but there still seems to be interest in Illinois. Rivals has him having “high” interest in ND, UConn and Illinois. No others. VAIllini35 mentioned that he is taking and OV to Illinois next weekend (10/12) which is also reported on Rivals
Aidan Igiehon C On Aug. 28, 2018 cut his list to Louisville, Oregon, St. Johns and Kentucky. Kentucky met with Igiehon 10/3. While it hasn’t been 100% confirmed whether or not he’s been offered (or if the offer is committable), Kentucky is still in the mix. Most recently, recruiting experts Jerry Meyer and Andrew Slater picked Kentucky as the favorite to land Igiehon’s commitment, though Evan Daniels is sticking with Louisville for now, and it’s the Cardinals who lead the crystal balls.
Drew Timme CBs: Texas A&M leads followed by Duke (although he cut Duke from his list so obviously CBs need to be updated) and MSU. His list as of Aug. 2 Texas Tech, Georgia, Louisville, Illinois, MSU, TA&M, Purdue, Arizona, Alabama and Oklahoma. Underwood was the first to offer Timme a scholarship when Timme was 15 and Underwood had just taken the Oklahoma State job.
Jason Jitoboh According to Rivals, Louisville and Illinois are his main (high) interests. Taking an OV to Louisville Nov. 8. 247Sports adds Florida and Tennessee as also warm and has CBs to Louisville and Florida. OV to Tennessee Sept. 14, Florida Oct. 5, Illinois Oct 11
Kofi Cockburn Still hoping. Still interested in Illinois. This was written last July but per Adam Zagoria he is taking four visits (which may not be official visits, despite some other accounts) to Kentucky, Connecticut, Florida State and Illinois.
Oscar Tshiebwe He has, as most here know, taken his OV to Illinois and we are waiting expectantly. Appears to still be interested but I don’t think many think he is coming here. Others on this board have written about OT (and I think KC) in regards to if so and so commits to some school that may affect where OT and/or KC end up. I would refer you to those messages for more information.
