Assuming that we get Hollinger, looks like the remaining needs are
1) 1 RB
2) 1 more Edge
3) 1-2 more DBs
4) Could always use another lineman
Guessing we'll have right around 20 commits (9 outgoing seniors + 4-5 in the draft + 4-5 outgoing transfers)

Was just thinking about this, 4-5 more scholarships seems right. There are few seniors on the team. I’m guessing we see a much higher amount of transfers after this season than last year.

spot on. WRT transfers, guys who've been supplanted by younger guys are going to be the bulk. and, yes, I'd be shocked if there are not more than this year

Pretty much gave up on commenting on basketball topics and started hanging here and women’s B-ball. Much pleasanter, on topic, and fewer people looking for a reason to be offended by every post!Raise your hand if you ever thought you'd see Illinois Football recruiting as an escape from Illinois Basketball recruiting.

You have to assume that someone at "Nebraska HS Football" really disliked having to post that...and I'm quite alright with that.

As with everything, when it comes to Illinois sports, it matters if the Illini are ranked highly, and it's irrelevant if the Illini are not ranked highly.

Really odd for Nebraska to only recruit Pyfrom as a guard. I get that you want to be transparent on fit but you can frame those discussions about being open to tackle if he can prove himself in camp, etc. But I don't know their scheme so maybe it's more obvious to their fanbase on why he is a better fit at guard than tackle.
