I didn’t realize that had been out there on message boards. But I’m sure you are right in that Kentucky has surely done all their homework rather than just taking Antigua’s word for it.
IllinifaninIL: “Was thinking the recruiting battles between Nick and Chin are gonna be really interesting...”
Considering that for a good while the Illini were pretty much ignored/frozen out of the elite Chicago talent pool... the Orange is in much better shape today from where they were in recent memory for future recruiting The Windy City.
We can thank those who have just gone on to Bluegrass Pastures for their efforts, the bold and foundation decision by Ayo to stay In-State, and the recent on-court success of The Beloved for capturing the attention of top Chi-Town players again and making The Illini part of the conversation and back in the game as Program Players again against other National ball powers.
Just grab one or two of these Chi guys every year or so and keep bringing in top talent from All Corners Of The Globe and the Illini become not just a National but a World Player. You know how you see Bulls logo clothing in pics from all over the globe? Keep this going the right way and you might see Orange and Blue gear like that as well. The Orange have shown they can conquer The Caribbean and parts of Europe... now on to the rest of the world. There’s more than enough great talent now to go around. Don’t have to obsess about any particular place... but it’s nice to be back in Sweet Home Chicago.

Sorry if this already got posted but it looks like Huss is a great recruiter. Ranked #7 recruiter by 247. And this article is pretty fresh.

I would guess the timing is being coordinated with the Gentry announcement. Sounds like some are expecting it to all go down this week.

Yeah.....all he has to do now is go out and prove it
Like bringing Kalkbrenner with him?
Huss recruited Kalkbrenner to Creighton, not Alexander.
Kalkbrenner is interesting that Chin helped him get with the MIF AAU. Not sure how he ended up at Creighton. He would be an upgrade from Lieb.
The change in position would allow him to recruit off campus.

does alexander's promotion help at all with Kofi?
That was one hell of a door.

Put me in the camp that will be very surprised if Kofi is not back for one more year

All this positivity has me excited!
If anyone is bored tonight, BigTim is hosting a zoom to discuss how corrupt the NCAA is. I'm guessing his take will be that everyone is dirty except UK.
Also, he is quite happy TyTy is no longer interested in Illinois, but could we sneak back in if we make it official with his former lead recruiter, Huss?

If anyone is even more bored, please start a satire account called "Dim Tim". Post the link when you are done.
Anyone have the image of Ayo holding the scythe?

We have our PG. That said, that would be flippin' epic! Not happening though.
Was Tiny Tim too obvious?
