honestly this is the take. even if the carousel didn't go how it did this year and Walters stayed another year before taking a HC position somewhere, we'd have to worry about him bringing whatever players/commits with him next year. Hopefully BB/Henry have the pull with him, but we will see.
Exactly! Walters was always going to leave. He was always going to have recruits who liked him.

With previous staffs, sometimes it felt like we were just filling spots so they wouldn't stay empty.

But something about how this staff operates just feels different. The way we are consistently and intentionally improving our roster really inspires confidence.

1. Where did Missouri and Florida come from? I heard Kentucky while Purdue makes sense, but those two are random
2. Still scared of a hidden Michigan hat though. Insert "quiet kid (recruitingwise) is the most unpredictable" line here.

0440 said earlier today it was Michigan, then the same day they don't make his top 5. Something is weird in the whole thing as he always is on top of things, unless the Harbaugh stuff really took off today. After that collapse from the Colts Saturday I could see Irsay putting on the full court press.

Jyaire doesn’t talk about recruiting … But I know his HS coach very well and he’s said all along Jyaire loves Walters and Henry …

It’s a very clear top 2 and not a top 5 IMO but who knows with Jyaire 🤷🏻‍♂️
Hey Indy or 0440 or Lville or others, what effect do you think the so-called NIL advantage the Illini has over purdont will have in his decision ???

asking for myself & NL # 3....................................

2023 class now at 10 top-1000 guys (including Patterson, who's ranking would put him ~815). Get Elzy and that number goes to 11. For comparison, last year's class had 8 top-1000 guys, including Crisler, who's ranking would put him ~890. Last year's class was ranked 63rd with 26 enrollees. This year's class is currently ranked 45th with 21 commits. 33rd ranked class with Elzy.
This is what i'm saying! remember the days when- never mind. it's good to be back!
