Illinois Football Recruiting Thread

Am a little slow cause I just realized from the tweet that his mother is Val Warner from Abc7, she does talk about her son playing football.
will be so fun when the narrative changes from "but we find diamond in the rough 3 stars" to "yeah we get top recruits and still develop them"

there's a ton of value in 3 stars, especially higher ones (which is where we're trending). the trick is being able to identify them.
I hold our staff in high regard on the ID front. track record there is good. I really like our top targets. this class is gonna be loaded, regardless of the top kids. so refreshing to be on even footing (or better) with most of our rivals, incoming talent-wise. this group gets coached up and tanked, look out

We're already winning by running a lot, using 2 high quality TEs probably makes a lot of sense given that.
for sure, my comment wasnt meant to take away from the skill the staff has shown. its more that its fun to reel in higher level talent to start with.
Colorado just offered JC Anderson.

At least you didn't say we won a bowl game against a SEC school. Then it'd be a really crazy dream.

Odds of prime being there by his Junior year has to be less than 5%. 5% might be way too generous
I can tell you for a fact that JC’s parents are not going to let him play for Deion … JC is a Big Ten type of kid … And ND … But ND should be in the Big Ten but we won’t get into that lol …
Believe it or not … Not everyone likes Deion despite what he may think …

I didnt like Deion as a player or tv guy, then I really enjoyed him at barstool I think he realized he needed to humanize himself he didnt take himself too seriously there. Now I truly truly cannot stand him
I’m pretty sure Colorado just goes to the top 300 on 247 and offers … And that’s their recruiting strategy …

Pro? Or College?
Curious from the insiders, how much of this momentum is due to us now having revenue sharing $s to make us competitive with offers? I know the results and putting guys in the NFL helps, but the did the revenue $s level the playing field too?
