Sad news in the world of recruiting....
While it's less than ideal, I'd like to see how other schools that aren't bluebloods fair in recruit top guys from their state. When some of these players draw interest from Duke, UK, KU, Villanova (with their recent success) and other schools who have been much more relevant than us, it's hard to keep kids in state when we haven't been relevant in nearly a decade and a half. I think the ones I'm most disappointed about are Lidell and Brunson, but I've only really been following UI basketball recruiting closely the last 2-3 years. Always been a fan, but just never paid attention to players until they played for UI.Sad news in the world of recruiting....

Any comment about Bruce Weber on this or any Illini-related siteIt'll be Kansas State. Weber putting together a solid class, guys who have a lot of upside.
Gentry doin' some 'cruitin'!

What was the knock on that kid? I know highlights don't tell the full story, but he doesn't look like a 3 star to me.DJ Gordon to Penn State...they got a good one there.

Some high school hoops. Bloom is #1 in state....too bad they don't play here.

I don't know what the knock would be, loved his game when I saw him at EYBL. Antigua had a connection with him, but we didn't make the top 6.

Miznoz strikes out again!Bradford to Kansas State.

Yeah. This is going to be off topic a bit but I remember that when Illinois was searching for a new head coach a lot of people wanted Martin due to his recruiting skills (at least that is how I remember it, I could be wrong). So what happened? I don't follow his recruiting but it does not seem as if he has been much of a recruiting savant. And hopefully that won't change.Clownzo needs to hire more daddies.
Any KKR sightings??
