No Kane wasn't there. He left yesterday I believe.

No the play is Ramey.

Likely means Villanova is out... He's visited Okie St and Texas already. UCLA visit is Feb 16th. Looks like the Villanova visit was scheduled for the 10th. Depending on when Jahvon Quinerly announces, I'd assume that visit will be cancelled. Maybe we can sneak in?

+1000000 I'd rather get the hires right. Sounds like we'll hear an announcement Sunday or Monday anyway.

Yea if anything it sounded like he’d be okay with a move to Nagy’s new staff. Swami tweeted out something similar last night so not sure if these two ppl are connected or not

The person he heard was Brad Childress.

Think it'd be an intriguing hire, but an uninspiring one. I hope the other two are great recruiters, as you mentioned.

I would assume the plan for Coran is to sign in February. He was all set to sign in December, but now has to wait. Probably just has to get his academics in order.

K/P recruiting processes tend to develop a bit slower than other positions. I wouldn't expect anything until February.

Dead period ends Jan 11th, so we should have those positions filled by then. I would assume we'll start to hear more concrete names over the next week or so.

Didn't think McGee would actually be let go this soon, but excited to see who we bring on.

How many of the early enrollees would we be able to back count to the 2017 class?

Robert (@ALionEye) from Illiniboard.com has a great post on the roster turnover, giving it some context. I'd encourage all to read.. https://illiniboard.com/story/2017/11/28/roster-turnover/

Exactly. Yea this probably signals that Jimbo is taking the TA&M job. I would imagine Houston is going to commit to ND here soon (remember that deleted tweet of his..). Hopefully Verdis opens his up too. Being able to land him and Avery in the same class would be amazing.
