Illinois needs to start looking more at replacing their frontline players and landing a few top bigs here down the line. Would love to see a talented athletic big come to the Illini. I firmly believe OA will be earning his money and is all over this.
Boise State for a former top 100 recruit? Come on Ty, you can do better. Definitely a step down. Could have gone to a better Missouri Valley school then Boise State.
Not even close to a must get. Jaden Schutt was a must get as well. How did that all work out for us? Very well I would say. Were at the point now with these in state kids that nobody is a must get. If you dont grab that offer and commit then were moving on.
There are probably one hundred top college programs in the country that would run through a brick wall to have a roster like ours. Not worried about Duke, Florida or anyone else for that matter. We are going to be a literal nightmare for teams to match up against. Bring them all on and fear no...
Oh well. His loss. Its too bad adults are driving these kids recruitments. If it's fear of competition then we do not want you. I understand money is a driving force behind alot of this. We have one talented group of freshmen coming in so it should not be of concern.
Blackwell does not make or break us. Hes a pure score but we have so many weapons on this team as far as scoring. Pivot and move on. I am sure we are going to add another very good player.
