The more I think about it, I couldn't be happier it's not northwestern. Goodwin could have led them to the tourney once and for all(more like a couple times, potentially)and sparked all kinds of life into that program. Could have been a major, major boost for their recruiting. Would have been no bueno. I'll take it.
I think the whole Northwestern thing was just words based on how the Internet world reacted (many Illini fans). All signs pointed to Illinois having the lead in his recruitment until probably the last couple of weeks. He could've been the next Denzel Valentine, yea, he's shorter, but in the college game, he could be a 2 or a 3 if he grows another inch or two.
