I think visits are capped at 48 hours. So I would guess he would come in mid-late afternoon today and leave afternoon on Sunday.

I believe he is not arriving in Champaign until after 9pm this evening.

Scott Burgess ‏@scottybscout 28m28 minutes ago Webster Groves (MO) 2018 PF Carte'Are Gordon @CarteareGordon cuts list to: ND Mizzou Texas Illini KU Ok St SMU St Johns Kentucky USC

Burgess didn't mention them in his list but if you look at Carte'Are's twitter pic you'll see he also has SLU on his final 11. Hope that billiken thing doesn't do any chasing --- that evidently is the thing we have to worry about.

About that, probably not a good time to bring this up. It won't stay at 1 once the big boys get settled, but he's got a potential killer class going.

If we have learned something from Bruce Pearl is that he isn't built for the long-term. How many places has he self destructed? Remember he was black balled for what he did to Deon for over a decade. He left Tennessee in disgrace and now he is back at it at Auburn. History will repeat itself.

Even the guys down south think there's a possibility it may happen this weekend. Hoopseen is also running a twitter poll that Trent has retweeted.
Will @_Trentfrazier1 commit to #Illinois this weekend?

TRENT FRAZIER HEADS TO ILLINOIS
Much has been said about the class that Illinois has already put together within the 2017 ranks. Holding the verbal of top-30 big man and top in-state recruit with Jeremiah Tilmon, along with previous commitments from two solid, tough guards in the backcourt in shot making wing Javon Pickett, and hard-nosed combo guard Da’Monte Williams, there is a ton of positive buzz around this group. This weekend, the Big 10 bunch will play host to its top point guard recruit, Trent Frazier.
Unheralded until this past summer where Frazier went bonkers with his Florida Elite crew at the Best of the South in Suwanee, the Sunshine State native heads north on Friday in getting a 48-hour glimpse of the Illinois basketball program. A 6-foot-1 lead guard that has become much better in facilitating for his team in the half-court, yet has remained his fiery self in scoring it at the basket and from beyond the arc, Frazier would be another top-125 add for John Groce’s crew. Georgia is expected to host the Wellington High star next weekend but one has to believe that the Illini staff will do all they can for Frazier to commit before he leaves the Champaign campus.

Frazier does seem about as excited as I've ever seen a recruit get before a visit. Fingers crossed we nail him down this weekend. Hard not to feel good about our chances.
