This is going pretty well!
Need three portal offense linemen
Joel Goodson
- how was I to know, she was with the Russians too?
I want the Cali Tongan, but BYU is gonna be tough to beat (considering he's a Mormon)
Tell him Brad can get him a Super Soaker NIL deal
Welcome Mr. Taylor
Wonder if Illinois kicks the tires on a guy like this?
Feels like they probably want to move away from the "undersized center" mold. --Says 6'2 300 but...seems flattering.
McMillen impressed enough to earn an opportunity. Would love to get some size/nastiness at that position. Felt like a lot of our line issues have stemmed from weak play in the center position.
Can't imagine these recruits, or just about any, would keep an underperforming coach's job in this current collegiate environment
I'd argue they are staying because they are reassured there will be better defensive coaching next year. I would think retaining the current DC would lose recruits...if im a defensive player i wouldnt want to play that soft scared timid style of defense.
What's the chances of him signing??

0% or 100%
More times than not, these guys aren't committing to a program, they're committing to a coaching staff. If Henry was deeply involved in the recruitment, I'm sure it's been determined.

this year? none (he's a '27)
Is Taylor an upgrade from Priestly? It's probably not apples to apples because Priestley should be at guard. Sounds like Taylor is very solidified as a pure tackle.

He plays RT for his current team which is likely his natural spot (but could move to LT).
I'm interested to see who replaces Davis and plays LT.

They are going to go to work in the portal this offseason. Budget is very hefty.
