All of a sudden all these posts/posters advocating that we should never deal with the Irvins and their players, we do not need them, and we should teach them a lesson have gone awfully quiet.
Is it possible to have 2 nut punches from the same recruit in the same year?
It makes the most sense for his to plan his visits this way. With that being said, this is the only way Moore could respond to a question about his visits. If he said maybe, or no, then that would be an indirect way of saying that Illinois is eliminated. Also, we've seen first hand that recruits can commit on their visits even with other visits scheduled. Right now, it's sounding like we have a solid chance of landing him though. Just got to hope that LSU or SMU doesn't give him an offer he can't refu$e.
You can read into it however way you choose but to me, Moore taking a visit AFTER LSU and SMU tells me Illinois leads at the moment. LSU and SMU are visits that Charlie is interested in but I see it as more of a due diligence. Illinois will close this thing out if he makes it here.

If anyone can do it, it's us!

I would not say that Illinois leads, but IF he does indeed take all his visits (official or unofficial), and IF he makes it to Illinois before committing, and IF indeed Illlinois is his last visit, then Illinois has an excellent chance.
However, Illini writers, including Derek Piper, tend to put a positive Illini spin into their reporting. Those are indeed some big IF's at this point.
I'm more in the TJL camp and other options. So I can take or leave Charlie, have felt that way even before his rankings improved.
You read lots of things on this board.I think I remember reading that a while back on this board.
I understand probably any half competant coach can build trust with a recruit during the actual recruiting process but someone needs to show Charlie what Shaq Goodwin said about Pastner...
What'd he say? And Charlie committed to Memphis mainly due to Damon Stoudamire.

Wow - interesting article. Not an apple-to-apple comparison to the Illini since we haven't had significant transfers leaving like Memphis, but it begs to ask the question how much, if any, that JG has spoken to his players about his future in Champaign as their coach.
