Can I keep saying Mookie Cooper to create maximum frustration? Or is it one of those things that if I keep repeating his name that it will come true?

There are other Illini sports boards????Its all over other boards. Notice that is plural. Kid goes to Michigan and the cat has been out for a couple of days at least.

If it's a Michigan commit, boy would I love if it's AJ Henning. If it's a kid from Michigan........no clue. Maybe Josh Priebe? He's a NW commit, maybe that's more wishful thinking of trying to poach one of their commitments during a down season.
Henning would be a monumental flip.
Long way to go beofre that's a serious conversation piece. The guy going crazy with Henning talk needs to slow himself down.

On the Mookie front, the buckeyes just received a commitment from Marvin Harrison Jr, the #54 overall player in the 2021 class.Can I keep saying Mookie Cooper to create maximum frustration? Or is it one of those things that if I keep repeating his name that it will come true?
Like I said, we missed on the three main slot WRs we were recruiting, no reason to not keep trying to flip at least one of themOn the Mookie front, the buckeyes just received a commitment from Marvin Harrison Jr, the #54 overall player in the 2021 class.
Oh I have no idea if we are trying to flip him, or if he does decide to re-open his recruitment if we would even be an option. But it's crazy that Ohio St currently has FIVE WRs that are rated higher than Mookie committed to their '20 and '21 classes.Like I said, we missed on the three main slot WRs we were recruiting, no reason to not keep trying to flip at least one of them
I am just talking as a whole about the slot WR recruits we were in on. If Mookie is solid to tOSU as been reported here, despite the talent in front him, I don't see why you wouldn't at least keep trying on the other two. They are not committed to a program at tOSU's level at least. Should be easier (not easy, easier than recruiting against a top 4 team) to flip if we keep winningOh I have no idea if we are trying to flip him, or if he does decide to re-open his recruitment if we would even be an option.

Those 5 have an average height of 6' 2&1/3" vs. Mookie's 5'8&1/2". It worked out well for Davy Jones of the Monkees, so he's got that going for him.Oh I have no idea if we are trying to flip him, or if he does decide to re-open his recruitment if we would even be an option.

Not to jump too far ahead but after looking at the top 2021 Illinois prospects, I'm guessing next year will be a big focus out-of-state. Three of the top five are already committed else, another is Dominic Bass (big priority for Illinois, but already has a UM pick), and the final one is from an area that Illinois has traditionally done very poorly (Winnetka). You have to get farther down the list before you start finding prospects from areas this staff has been successful. It's early and these names will get shuffled around coming next fall, but that 2021 class is going to be so important with all of the seniors.
6' 3" 185 CB from texas.....would be HUGE considering the lack of depth at the positionLSU transfer Mannie Netherly is visiting this weekend:

Illinois wants him as a WR.Not quite. He’s a great kid, Jeff Riordan did a phenomenal job with him in HS but he was a WR who needed to stay at WR. At DB hes stiff and he’s lost. Might try him at safety.
Still an intriguing talent and he is a great kid, we could do worse in the portal but this kid has a long way to go and only 2 years to get there. Wish it weren’t the case but truthfully, he’s no further along than Devon at this point.
Illinois wants him as a WR.
