Got about 7 minutes of discussion after his announcement by on how much our team has improved and what he will add. Great visibility for the Illini at the AA Bowl.
I mean elite…oops, wrong coach

We have solid WR’s now. That will open up the run game as teams will not be able to cheat in the box. Great pick up. Next year might be special.

What's this bump our class rank up to now?
Four-Star WR Malik Elzy Signs with Illinois - University of Illinois Athletics
Elzy announced his commitment to Illinois live on NBC at the 2023 All-American Bowl at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Texas.

I believe he has already signed... Fighting Illini.com has announced his signing
so he signed back in Dec, but everyone kept it a secret?

I heard that the plan was to sign his LOI during early signing day, but keep the announcement secret to the wider world until today.
Then again I am posted the Elzy announcement in the wrong thread, so I might b a dubious source
247 has us ranked 40th, so I think the Elzy commit moved us up 2 spots.
I never get tired of the
B-O-O-M !
Now beat Wisc in basketball.
If my Math is correct, I believe Olano has already accounted for 10 points today.

Major part of our offense next year I'll bet. Great pickup, maybe BB's biggest recruiting win yet.
7th in the big ten now over teams like iowa, minnesota, and wisconsin feels nice

With another warm body with any sort of star rating, we could jump Mizzou next

I feel great about Elzy. He's a difference maker and that's what we need to move up the food chain. But he's here in June, not now, so learning the playbook and getting his routes down is going to be a challenge. There's no way he'll be a redshirt, but I'm tamping down immediate large impact until proven otherwise.
