[QUOTE="lstewart53x3, post: 1681553, member: 10313"] Maybe you started watching Illini basketball during the end of the Weber years? Because from where I stand: Historically, we’ve always recruited well, regardless of the strength of the conference. Some of our best seasons have come in years when the conference is down. Of course, you’re free to root for whoever you’d like, but B1G teams performing well, does not help us. Look at Alabama, in the SEC, recruiting very well, yet in a poor conference. Memphis recruits incredibly well in a small conference. So does Gonzaga. Tennessee recruits well in the SEC as well. I could go on & on. Other B1G teams losing non-con games does not impact our ability to recruit well or get high seeds in the tournament. [/QUOTE]
