This. We can win big with Curbelo. 4 years of Curbelo? Yes, please!
I think we have a great chance with all 3. Arkansas is KK's home state but they already have a 4 PG commit. For Curbelo I dont see him going to Oregon as they have solid guard commits in their 2019 class and they are targeting big names like Jalen Green and Nimari Burnett. Miami is our only threat for Curbelo. Adam Miller is technically down to 3, Illinois, Az State, and Az. Arizona has Dalen Terry and probably will get Puff Johnson. Arizona State has Marcus Bagley and is targeting top combo guard Josh Christopher. I'd be surprised if we didn't land at least 1/3.Being the pessimistic Illini fan, with good reason I might add, I wonder if we get any of the three (Miller, Curbelo, Robinson). I mean, I think the various sources are indicating that Robinson is heading to Arkansa (Mussleman is coach there and can bring 'em in), Curbelo seems to be leaning to Miami, and it just seems as if Miller is just not convinced to come to Illinois (albeit, that is just a feeling I have) and haven't some people in the know say he is going to ASU? I think we have a good shot with both Curbelo and Miller just like we came down to being one of two or three teams for other players who ended up going to the "other" school. Like I said, the pessimistic Illini fan in me says that they are going elsewhere.
Would we take all 3 guards
I know our football team is the talk of the nation right now but this is a huggggge recruiting weekend. Where is all the news and updates!?
The simple answer is no. 1 of Curbelo or KKR in addition to Miller.
KKR unlikely. Arkansas is killing their visit this weekend.
On KKR and Arkansas.... Home football experience in Fayetville on Saturday (loss to Auburn 51 to 10) was not as great as epic upset celebration at UIUC.This is correct. I'll be surprised if KKR does not commit within the week. Arkansas sort of had him on slow play as they dabbled with Kyree Walker. Strange bedfellow for Arkansas but Muss has never been known as the cleanest.
I still standby, it's Curbelo and Miller but maybe not till after the first signing period.
