Heard there is still a possibility he could sign early... Which would mean by the 17th.
wow...plenty of broken ankle bones and jockstraps on the court......Rose was a superstar.....reminds me of what Barry Sanders did on the FB field ....fake , double fake and he gawn.......I mostly agree that Westbrook is the more explosive athlete, but if you think the contrary opinion is worthy of that gif you're probably guilty of forgetting how amazing D. Rose was before his injury problems. He was absolutely ridiculous.
Hopefully, that's a Wednesday! Don't want to go to next signing period.Heard there is still a possibility he could sign early... Which would mean by the 17th.
Okay, thanks for the update!Nope - down to us and MSU.
If it were up to Ty he would commit to us tomorrow but his camp is telling him to slow down and take his time.
TIFWIW
EOW...End of WednesdayHeard there is still a possibility he could sign early... Which would mean by the 17th.

Is his camp's hesitancy to see how the season/roster plays out or to see what other schools might become interested after the initial signing period?Heard there is still a possibility he could sign early... Which would mean by the 17th.
I maybe understood camps telling a kid that wanted to commit to ILL to "wait" when we were bad, but i think we are past this now. If you are being told to wait to commit to a program that you love that looks to be in position to be a top 10 program moving forward and at least in the immediate future, you are getting bad adviceI feel like we never fare well in these recruitments. Ty wants to, but his camp says wait. Don't fault the kid for waiting, but it's one of those recruitments where I feel like you need to just wake me up if he signs.
Sometimes it's the recruit that wants to sign for us and his "camp" pressures him to go elsewhere (Whitmore/Corhen). Except when the recruit's family wants Illinois but the recruit himself wants to go elsewhere (Bryce Hopkins). Either we have terrible luck with conflicted families, or a penchant for post hoc rationalization.I feel like we never fare well in these recruitments. Ty wants to, but his camp says wait.

Agree. Still not quite understanding any objections any respective camp could have with our program at this point. Most BIG wins last 2 years. I would put our player development against any program in the country (Coleman Hawkins!?!). It’s early on NIL but we are a basketball crazy school and probably the top draw in central IL with a chance to tap into Chicago and St Louis markets too so have to at least be competitive. What’s rubbing people the wrong way?Sometimes it's the recruit that wants to sign for us and his "camp" pressures him to go elsewhere (Whitmore/Corhen).

Oh come on! We kill it in the “wasn’t his decision” recruitments!I feel like we never fare well in these recruitments. Ty wants to, but his camp says wait. Don't fault the kid for waiting, but it's one of those recruitments where I feel like you need to just wake me up if he signs.

Might be more about what the roster will look like next year. Is Grandison still on the roster? Kofi? Hutch? What does Kofi’s replacement look like?I maybe understood camps telling a kid that wanted to commit to ILL to "wait" when we were bad, but i think we are past this now.

Could just be family wanting him closer.Agree. Still not quite understanding any objections any respective camp could have with our program at this point. Most BIG wins last 2 years.

More than that. I think parents and coaches just don’t want him to rush into anything. We trailed for a long time and they did not push him to MSU then.Could just be family wanting him closer.
would be strange to let him go away for high school but be overly worried for college.Could just be family wanting him closer.
This guy?Anyone else hearing buzz about a Ty Rodgers commitment tomorrow?
