I would guess a decision would come within the next week or 2.Any chance we get news about his decision or will that not be until later this month
Not expecting a big crowd. Hope that part of visit doesn't weigh in too much on his decision. Wouldn't think it would.Scrimmage at 5. Holyfield will be there. Show some love.
it just might be a big factor...Not expecting a big crowd. Hope that part of visit doesn't weigh in too much on his decision. Wouldn't think it would.
They know whats goin onWell then I really hope I am wrong. Hopefully some orange krush members got message.
The timing is good. Instead of taking the kid to a football game they can take him over to the NCAA tournament to watch Illini tennis.Not expecting a big crowd. Hope that part of visit doesn't weigh in too much on his decision. Wouldn't think it would.
Just saw BU, OA and Holyfield outside Illini Inn. Will that make the difference? Planning to be at the scrimmage later.Scrimmage at 5. Holyfield will be there. Show some love.

so we should start panicking at 6:30 tonight if we don't get a commitment?I would guess a decision would come within the next week or 2.

I actually think we close this out within the next week.so we should start panicking at 6:30 tonight if we don't get a commitment?
Definitely can't hurt.Hopefully, the Italy trip will be the tiebreaker, if the decision is close.
10 years? That's a lot of recruits... I think I'd want Kahlil Whitney over Patterson even in this class. Have you seen Whitney's mixtapes?I dont think there has been a recruit in the last 10 years I've wanted more than Patterson. He has all the tools to be a future star.

I would have to say that Jawun Evans and especially Jalen Brunson would have been more of a "want" for me. Carlton Bragg, Elijah Thomas, Quentin Snider, Cliff Alexander, KBD, Demetrius Jackson, Jabari Parker, Francis Okoro, this list could go on...
But I would also really like Patterson.
Bring some shades to Ubben! Looks like the University of Illinois!I'll be ecstatic with any Holyfield commitment, but am not so secretly hoping it's McLaurin-esque.
McLaurin would have been great for this past years team. Regardless, Holyfield seems to be a much bigger impact and has much higher regarded teams than Sam had.I'll be ecstatic with any Holyfield commitment, but am not so secretly hoping it's McLaurin-esque.
McLaurin was solid . Considering Holyfield's stats, I would expect much more offense from him.McLaurin would have been great for this past years team. Regardless, Holyfield seems to be a much bigger impact and has much higher regarded teams than Sam had.
I second your thoughts on Jalen Brunson. Saw the kid play in high school. He dropped something like 37 against Rockford Auburn and broke the HS tournament record the following game with I think 57. He was unstoppable. Two National Titles after that.Yes, I do have high standards. This is ILLINOIS BASKETBALL!
And maybe the reason our record has sucked is because none of my wants played for us. That has to change. They need to start landing my wants.
