Illinois Football Recruiting Thread

[The Dying Illini]

Is this satire or are you stoned?

So, how long do we need to wait for our first BOOM!?

Feagin’s a very good pass catcher. All the talk about him as a RB… he could potentially be a 200-250yd receiver (just for comparison, Cole Rush this year had 217 receiving yards).

Chase Brown had 240 receiving yards. I could see something close to that for Feagin if we really tap into it.

Cannot agree more. Really would like to see us use him more as a receiver.

football recruiting board is popping. Don’t think Illinois recruiting has ever been this talked about

Maybe a detailed RB coach can help him learn pad level. I do think that could really create a breakout year for him.

he's the only one here, AFAIK. so, I'd guess yes. that would be a helluva start

 

[Joel Goodson]

They will be lucky to make the CFP next year. Much more difficult schedule compared to this year’s cake walk

but they'll have a great (and handsomely paid) kicker

So outbid a bunch of Texas schools and Iowa?

Will Diaz be an upgrade from Bowick? I know he'll be in the slot (5"11, 180) whereas Bowick was outside, but just as that third receiving option.

It looks like we are in on another good receiver.

He can't possibly be getting more than $300k as a kicker, right?

 

[Joel Goodson]

we have a new pope?

Can’t blame the kicker for getting the best offer.

I think a kicker derailed Ohio states season and kept Ole Miss’ going

That will have a boatload of big $$ suitors.

Hambone popo!!

I think a kicker derailed Ohio states season and kept Ole Miss’ going

And scored the 3 points that put us over the top against Tennessee.
