It has been locked up for awhile. He chose Illinois for a lot more reasons than just Chester and NIL.

"We chose to go in another direction." - Penn State Basketball Fans (plural?), probably
Penn. St. must be pivoting to that elusive 5’9”Nimblefarb kid out of Olney with the ultra-useful Model U.N. and Drama Club background…the one that we seem to keep taking a pass on him…not sure why? I’ve been meaning to ask if anybody had anything on the guy. Haven’t heard the name for far too long now. ;)

I-N-I! Welcome to the Fighting Illini Basketball FamILLy, Amani. Glad to see another talented, high character student/athlete with a supportive, non-drama family join the Illini. It‘s great to see yet another self-proclaimed “every day guy” commit just as our insiders said he would. Thanks, Indy, 0440, Lville, DB11Headband, et al! It’s also nice to be able to stop worrying about getting another hat switch announcement because Brad is not offering those type of kids with their drama-filled “support“ systems…

So are we basically in wait and see mode regarding ‘23 and ‘24 recruits and how they progress during their seasons and what kind of player we reel with a mid-season transfer? Haven’t heard much about anything being imminent.

Recruiting as we knew it is a thing of the past. Some years they will take 2-4 prep kids. Some years 1. Transfer portal is changing the game

2023-24

TSJ, MM -> NBA 100%
Skyy, Coleman -> NBA 75% ?

That will free up 4 scholarships
Right now we only have Amani signed for 2023
JMO I would expect 2 transfer portals upper classmen and 1 more HS recruit

Thanks, I get that. From your answer though I’m going to assume we are indeed in wait and see mode as far as HS recruits. I can live with Hansberry being the lone 2023 HS recruit should that come to pass. Nice to be in position to be picky and use all of the options available for bringing in new players.

If we have a great year I am assuming TSJ, MM, Coleman and Skyy are NBA bound

in 2023 if that happens we will only have 9 players on scholarship so Brad can bring 3 more in
