[QUOTE="GBPillini, post: 1206328, member: 13043"] Considering this is only the fifth losing season Illinois has had since Lou Henson took over I don't think that's very impressive. Also, his second year he brought in Leron Black (#48 RSCI) and Michael Fine (3 star). He's recruiting success so far has pretty much been in line with what Weber was bringing in towards that latter part of his Illinois tenure, and that was always considered Weber's weakness and Groce's strength. Getting a PG shouldn't be considered a major accomplishment, it should be a pretty common thing (even though it hasn't been a Illinois for quite a while). Also, while I'm obviously rooting for Lucas to be great, the truth is he's a 3 star recruit. I would love it if he is underrated, but I've heard that about to many Illinois recruits to count, that turned out to be rates right where they should be. Also, I like the '17 recruits so far, but again it's not really "program-changing" players that we have committed so far. [/QUOTE]
