Apologizes as I don't have time still to post the reviews of the three commits from yesterday. I had Blacks and Thieman before the commitment Simms later in the day.
Anyways folks for the moment hell ya. Thieman's I loved when I saw about a week or two ago he is in imo he a high 3* 5.7 rating. Simms listed as 6'3 317 by rivals left me looking he sure looks taller now scout says 6'4.75 332. I mention because it would easy to slip into the guard spot but with more because he needs a lot but with more of he could be a rt. He got a mid 3* 5.6 and remember needs to spend his day with s+c and o-line coach for at least 3 years.
Finally Black again looked taller I loved his o-line work and athleticism and even on the small amount of d-line they showed he was improving. Again mid 3* 5.6 and I could both Simms and Blacks rise before final grades next year.

Looks like we received another commit on Fathers Day? On Twitter, eye_ball76 says "Boy it feels great to commit to one of the top schools in the nation" #illini #Oskee15 #Fightingillini

Who is this player? *Edit - see now it is the ESL player.*

Both Taylor Zalewski (SR) and David Reisner (JR) return this year, so hopefully there will be some growth/improvement.

Eric Eshoo to NU.. Wish I could act surprised, but I'm not.

He was NW all along... Just was waiting for the offer.

Looking through the TE prospects offered by the Illini and they are in the running for maybe 1, Jordan Giberti. Reams is the only TE underclassman on the roster so future depth is obviously needed. Need Golesh to work some of his recruiting magic and find a quality TE.

Bama needed TE's BAD in this class, otherwise I think Illinois would have had as good of a shot as anyone at Brendan Scales.

The last Griff we had from St. Louis made a nice layup at the buzzer to beat the Hoosiers. Now our new Griff can catch a TD at the buzzer to beat them as well!

Good sized lad. Starting to bring in some StL talent. Hopefully we are gaining momentum. Where's Cali to break the film down?
