Illinois Football Recruiting Thread

Concerned? Yes.
Deeply concerned? No.

Last time I checked, we were 18th in the B1G in total ranking, but 9th in the B1G in average rating.

The inquirer reporters have mentioned this is going to be a much smaller class than last year, so average rating is probably the number to pay attention to.

Still though, it’s likely to be a step back from last year. Which could be a pivot in strategy to save more money for retention and transfers. Seems like we lost a few pieces we wanted to keep this last offseason. They might want to ensure that doesn’t happen again.

The perfect man to respond. Makes sense.

TY!

Really weird connection here, albeit de minimis. Dude’s dad was the sales person when I was looking to replace my roof. Dad looks like Goldberg, so the genes are legit.
