A month give or takeWhen would this announcement be?
22 Scholarships are full with the three freshman and Dainja.Boswell is the next main target along with a possible Morez reclass. More names will come up in the coming months. 22 is done-but we will likely bring in a couple of transfers after the season
He’s at a prep school now, any reclass thoughts or straight 23?A month give or take
No reclass talk has happened.He’s at a prep school now, any reclass thoughts or straight 23?
It was a Roosevelt gif. You have to go with, "There's nothing to fear but Fears itself."I just hope we don't all end up with ... tears for Fears.

I think that makes more sense than, "There's nothing to Fears but fear itself."

I will certainly defer to 0440 and others way more knowledgeable than I am, but I would think it varies from situation to situation (different personalities, timing relative to the signing date, etc.), and the fact that Fears is only a Junior means he doesn't need to be in any rush.Is that a typical amount of lag between decision and announcement? Is it a "let's be sure you're sure" type of thing?
(Curious to better understand the process.)
Just depends on every kid. Rodgers committed to the staff 3-4 days before he announced it.Is that a typical amount of lag between decision and announcement? Is it a "let's be sure you're sure" type of thing?

He committed to giving 100% and being the best he can be. Also to giving up Mt. Dew, pure sugar it is.Has Fears committed in any way, shape or form?

If Grandison/Hutcherson came back wouldn't those be the extra covid year and not count toward the scholarship count, like Monte/Frazier?22 Scholarships are full with the three freshman and Dainja.
Kofi likely leaves, opening one spot.
Grandison/Hutcherson could come back, taking spot(s).
Pretty much looks like any transfers we bring in in 22 will be in response to guys who transfer out.
No - that bonus schollie thing was just for 2020-21 grads. Everyone else gets a free year, but they count towards the limit.If Grandison/Hutcherson came back wouldn't those be the extra covid year and not count toward the scholarship count, like Monte/Frazier?

I'm head over heels for this comment.I just hope we don't all end up with ... tears for Fears.

Don't forget Dain DainjaReally liking the future illini. Epps, Fears, and Harris gives us great ball handling. Podz, Goode, RJ solid at the 2, 3, and possibly 4 spot. Still have vets to lead like Curbello, Payne , Coleman and BBV. Likely not all will remain but tean looka pretty solid in 2 years
Makes me want to shout!
The limit is just on actual scholarships, though, right? Conceivably, couldn’t a deal be worked out where some NIL booster money paid for a player’s scholastic expenses? That might reduce the need to use a scholarship on a returning Covid-year player.No - that bonus schollie thing was just for 2020-21 grads.
