Underrated Recruit Nationally: Michael Finke
Finke, however, is one of the Hoops Report's top 10 prospects in Illinois. He's a legit 6-9, pushing 6-10, and will only get bigger as he fills out his frame and ultimately become an ideal 4/5 type at the college level. Big men are so difficult to find. A player at his size, with his passing level and shooting ability and range out to the three-point line, is coveted. Illinois may not have landed an instant impact player or superstar, but they certainly have a valuabe piece going forward and an underrated one at that.
