One could argue this is always the case with the marketing machine that is the crystal ball but that's neither here nor there. I don't have any inside info on this one but it should be an exciting next couple of weeks

Groce has been to the Wilkes household.

Wilkes, no question. Wilkes and Tilmon would give Groce 2 five stars. Both of them would probably be here two years and that lineup in 2018 would be out best in a decade by far.

This isn't directed at you specifically fivestar but unless you're John Groce, it's virtually impossible to be correct on every recruit. By the time it goes through the grapevine and gets to an "insider", even one who's very connected, it's likely been at least slightly altered. We've all played...

Appreciate you taking hearsay as a guess but you're wrong. He might happen to end up at IU but that's the odds on favorite. Your speculation means no more than anyone else.

Jeremiah is huge in this recruitment. There's a very good chance this one goes our way.

Have heard this as well, but I'd be surprised if he moves within/out of district before 2018 at the earliest. It's always tough to project how kids this young will perform at the college level (Mike Shaw in 8th grade anyone?), but he's certainly one to keep an eye on down the road.

Groce back on the recruiting trail early this morning. Results be damned, we're not going to be outworked.

Sitting right around Illinois +250

Early this morning.

Wilkes' here early in the morning. Staff is going all out for him, Dee will be his tour guide the next two days.

He visited again in the past month as well.

It does, it means we still are in it even though his visit went incredibly poorly! That doesn't mean we're the front-runner or even remotely likely to get a commitment. Think of it as like when Depaul makes the top 5 for being the first school to offer.. This doesn't mean that the staff hasn't...

Late lunch wings :thumb:

Just to confirm, Wilkes has visited unofficially.
