    I never for one second believed Hawkins was settling for a maybe 2nd round maybe not at all 2024 draft ticket and I do not for one second now believe he'll legitimately consider playing anywhere else next year. This to me is a straight "squeeze every NIL dollar possible" play - as he should -...

    Illinois Football Recruiting Thread

    I can tell you for absolute certain that in at least the 21 years since I first stepped foot in the halls of Marist HS we have not had any football players of consequence enroll at Illinois. Although prior to just over a decade ago there very plainly were not any football players of consequence...

    This the guy? Edit: Nvm, tweet from yesterday it looks like.

    10-4 thanks again for all your effort on that. Is there a way by which we can see who here submitted the CB?

    I see the tracker lists a Humrichous CB from 3 days ago but I see no such CB on 247. What'd I miss?

    Four out of the five and a half of them posted today. There’s been quieter days.

    At a glance Moretti would seem like the guy to have most recently decided it’s time to jet, given Boswell.

    Coleman no doubt loves a good troll but I'm kinda skeptical that he'd go as hard as that to troll his own fan base if he weren't planning to at some point here turn around and give them the "surprise" reveal that he's indeed coming back for one more go. That's just my .02 but I'd genuinely be...

    I mean they said outright the other day if we got OA back we’d be in extremely strong position for Brea. Every program in the country wants Brea and now it sounds like we’re getting OA back.

    It's not just that one ^ either, multiple UK outlets seem to be hearing the same thing this morning.

    He needs to hire a formal in-game guy. It's been brought to him and he's rebuffed it, to this point - adamant that he and the staff he has in place already are capable. But a lot, I mean *a lot* of internal control was willfully granted to him as part of the pitch to pry away from Eugene. If...

    No clue what this is supposed to mean. The players love Cristobal, the staff, the boosters - everybody. The dude absolutely bleeds Miami, something you don't get in a HC at probably 90% of programs at this or any level. He's of course not flawless, the GT game was probably the most...

    Have to push back on this a bit as Miami football is the one entity in the country I do have some pretty direct ties to. Miami's bag's very large. Ruiz was never the player many (not saying anyone here, just a lot of folks in general in the college football sphere) thought him to be, that's...

    Tiering is tough particularly near the top of the B1G because unless you explicitly state otherwise it's never entirely clear if we're tiering for the job they've done at the program in their time there or the job they're doing there right now. Because if it's the former there's essentially no...
