Idk, but a commit or two this weekend would be great.

Had a super strong start with Peters and Moran, I'd like to see the staff build on that.

I think Nik Urban may commit this weekend

4-star athlete Rontavius Groves is visiting this weekend. He is from the same high school in Tennessee as Ke'Shawn Vaughn & Cameron Watkins.
Kentrail Moran is also visting this weekend.

Groves has a great offer list. What position will he play during college?

Is this just a guess or do you have any insider information?

Just a guess. A couple conversations with people with Duke contacts who think he is heading elsewhere. Elsewhere makes sense that it is us. Just deducing

Per his coach, 2016 Chicago Phillips LB Amani Jones committed to Illinois tonight.

He wants to bring 2 of his teammates as well. Who is he talking about?

At the very least, opening doors with a upcoming program full of athletes with another 2 or 3 solid 2016 players.

That said, I like what little I've seen from Jones.

Love the burst and hit stick Jones showed in the state title game.

I think his teammate Amir Watts is the real prize, I see a future NFL D-Lineman.

Welcome Amani.

Please convince Skanes and Watts to come along with you.

DL Amir Watts tons of potential
WR Quayvon Skanes only 5'9" don't want to compare him to Dudek (who is a star) but seems like height is big concern. Saw a tweet about Skanes couple weeks ago tweeted by former Illini Chris James who runs HEROH training in Chicago that said "they keep talking about my height but I haven't been covered yet" Love that attitude. Could be another good slot guy. Obviously not expecting him to be Dudek by any means but height may be a concern for some teams

Could this class have gotten to a better start? Great stuff.

Fits very nicely into that Darrick Brownlow / Dana Howard mold.

Fireplug that likes to lay some wood.
