Butkus was the first Illini coach to reach out to him so he is familiar with Megginson. This staff has got megginson excited about the future again and is starting to putting in the extra work to be successful. Look for him to only get better.

I'm not sure it really mattered who was going to be the coach of Illinois for Hill so to say one or the other is a bit redundant.

Not sure you can call it choking when the refs have called touch fouls on them and swallowed the whistle on a&m.

Isn't he already a five star recruit? Pretty sure he doesn't need an offer from the Illini to get high major looks.

He can run for President and the way things are going with the current races and after his press conference I might put him on the write-in ballot.

+1 I gained a lot of respect for her. She knew they type of person we needed and I think she got that person in the end.

The refs controlled from the beginning. It was the only reason it was close to begin with. This game should be sent immediately for review by the league and the refs should be held accountable. There is no reason to call the first foul but not call the second. I'm not sure I could count on both...

I agree that he isn't ready but I do think he could have a shot at being drafted. His numbers are where they should be to be looked at. He plays against BIG competition and has proved he can play with the best. For Groce, Hill leaving early might allow him to convince players he can get you to...

Which would benefit Groce more, Hill leaving to go pro or staying for his final year and maybe make it to the NCAA tournament?

I think its Illegal for the home team to do so in college sports. Remember the NBA is a circus and for entertainment only.
