Carney was here last weekend, I believe
Illinois Football Recruiting Thread
- Status
Some East St.Louis kids?
Fedd-Jackson is also in play. Illinois is in the final two.
Yet somehow didn't make the all-state team. :noidea:
KG wasn't a part of those tweets. Sternquist tweeted the hot columns tonight as well. There is still at least 1 commit that hasn't announced publicly.
We may be making an assumption that JS wouldn't tweet it twice. Doesn't seem crazy that Kendrick would tell the staff at the end of the live period and then wait to announce until his birthday
There were at least 3 hot column tweets. My guess is Carney is one since he's supposed to be an early enrollee according to this link from Septmeber below. Assuming that's still true, those hot column tweets were on the first day early enrollees could sign so it makes sense that he'd be one.

If they can win recruiting potential goes through the roof. It will never be Michigan or Ohio St level, but should hanged with Iowa, Penn St, Wisconsin etc. Winning is the next step.
Can I +1 that? I can't remember feeling this good about the program in... ever. Yooge gratz to all the staff and a big thanks for all their hard work. :thumb:
Noticed none of the recruiting sites show Hafiz committed to Indiana. Hoosier forums suggest a pulled offer. Karma strikes again.

Man what a nice surprise. Got back from seeing Rogue One and see this on Twitter. Welcome to the O & B Kendrick! #wewillwin
I just made the mistake of peeking at Ohio State's recruiting class. I shouldn't have done that.
We have signed the whole World Wrestling Federation. These kids are gonna lay the smack down on some people and its gonna rub them raw. Can you smell what the Love is cooking??
Wooo-hoo!

Sounds great! Hopefully, it's more than simply supporting a teammate and friend. I think so. Not suggesting Taylor is now a lock, but augers well.
But hey, the reality check is still very much appreciated. Now I don't have to do it. But still, one recruiting class at a time.
Very nice synopsis here. Thanks much. Hoping for more 4 stars.

Cool. But the thing that excites me is the avg. quality of recruit. Looks like the years of gunning for an avg. MAC-level class are over, thankfully. Finish strong and send the message that we will be reckoned with.

Let's get to routinely competing with and beating Wisconsin, Nebraska, Iowa et al. in recruiting and we'll see some good things on the field. If you're looking to compete with scUM and tOSU in recruiting, you're going to be disappointed. For all the success Wisky has had, they've never come close to tOSU quality in recruiting. So be it.
Here is a quite old picture of Zook's recruiting vs. ability to coach...unfortunately I lost the reference for time frame, but definitely Zook at work
