I've found screen shots of his Twitter which is deleted now but not his rivals profile which is for sure gone by now.

Rivals has a bad, bad reputation for this kind of stuff.
Mike Farrell -- the head guy over at Rivals -- is a piece of work. Dude has apparented tweeted kids asking them to DM him if they want to be recognized -- presumably a quid pro quo in which he ups their profile, and they give him privileged info. And his bias is pretty well known.
247 actually tweeted out a few things today in which they defended the composite rankings in the interest of transparency and reduction of bias. They're also overhauling the way they advertise/explain their rankings, which is a far cry from Rivals' Mike Farrell system.
Take 247 over Rivals on football anyday.
Although we would love Mookie, I wouldn’t bet money on this one.

He kept tweeting stuff out about his commitment was still 100% open the last few weeks and it got my hopes up for IL. Whoops

Looks like he will be a blueshirt. We do need the depth

Plohr says he doesn't know who the OL coach is going to be:

Barnes is the one who let us know that Miles Smith would be the LB coach. If Plohr doesn't know who the OL coach is going to be then I doubt it's McClain unless Plohr was told to keep it quiet.
Illinois has interesting connections to CBC. Patterson was a coach there before he took over as the Head Coach at TCHS. Randolph played basketball at CBC before transferring to Belleville West so he was in the same class as Plohr.
Werner actually posed the question on Twitter. Just a case of not linking source.
Pretty sure it is Bob McClain (offensive analyst).
I might take some flak for this on this board but I love those uniforms. I was unconvinced last year when they were first released but they’ve grown on me every time I’ve seen them since.
I love every combination that doesn't involve the white pants. All the tops are simple and beautiful.

Agreed, although I say it a lot, still think the gray ghosts would be better with orange replacing the navy.

Do we have any recruits coming in next weekend? I would think the recent success of the basketball program could be an asset with recruiting. I would think the State Farm Center will be pretty packed with a vibrant environment that we would want some potential football players to bear witness to.

In the immortal words of the Moody Blues, it's a "Question of Balance" as far as uniforms are concerned. Loved the white-blue-white when ILL destroyed MINN - if memory serves.
Just saw that Illini offered Nae'saan Dickerson, WR from GA. According to 247, Illinois has 31 offers out to WRs. Hmmm, might be a priority huh?

Was just about to comment that offers for the 2020 class are coming MUCH FASTER and frequent than 2019 and 2018 class offers.
