Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread (July-August 2016)

[BillMo]

My sources would be SHOCKED if frazier doesn't commit this weekend. It's about 95% likely. Take it for what it's worth

My source is 99.99999999% sure he committed as soon as he saw the hall at night, but it wont be said till sunday

Too bad Derek wasn't in town to talk to him along with Dee.

Any breakfast sightings? Hopefully they get a full day of Illini events today.

What do pancakes and highly sought after recruits have in common? They go well together on Sundays. I hope to enjoy having both tomorrow morning!

Trying to guess of board meltdown if he doesn't commit....

If he doesn't, I'm already excited for the strain of desperate optimism around Scruggs' imminent commitment (and/or possible extant silent verbal).

Scrugg's AAU coach said they will take all their visits. Still haven't gotten confirmation if the MSU visit is postponed or canceled altogether.

Tuesdays verbals with Monday leaks are popular following weekend OV.

Unusually quiet board for when we have an OV from an important recruit.

Yardwork before the rain.

My friend spotted Groce and co at OPH about 20 minutes ago (1045)

edit: see I was beaten to the scoop.

Yum! Brew up some more of that java for closers!

Any PG has to love Dee being there. So glad he's part of our staff!

Most recruits who did not grow up Illini fans (PGs or not), probably do not remember, or may not even know, who Dee was. Yet, it is his personality that makes him so valuable.

Is that Frazier's relative? Uncle maybe?

Based on his posts looks like an uncle.

 

[CAHALL15]

It may not be relevant at all, but Frazier is following 10+ Illinois accounts on Twitter with among those being Groce, Tilmon, Dee, Sam McLaurin, and multiple Illinois media accounts.

Who is accompanying Trent Frazier from Florida ?

His mom, dad and highschool coach.

Sounds like "If I am going to commit, I want you all on board."

 

[OWWDig]

Sounds like "If I am going to commit, I want you all on board."

He may not be an instant impact guy - or maybe he will be. Regardless, I absolutely love TF's enthusiasm for the O&B...and it seems to be contagious with his uncle all the way in FLA following the weekend closely.

WANT!
