I like the direction "27", is trending. I still want East St. Louis flyers and Mount Carmel men filtering home to Champaign. I would stay on the OleMiss kids, going to be major upheaval in that program. They have a hand full of our top 30 committed. Good job staff. Impressive and I'm excited for Coach Wheatley gets humming! 💪 💪

Johnson is an NFL type of player. James is kind of underrated as he could be a really good LB with added strength. Paulsen and Rice were good evals who are still getting better.

I like where they are as far as who they have in the fold. Illinois has shown the ability to flip some targets including a few of the last commits. I see no reason after a pretty good year (And even more support) that it won't continue.

The line is at something like 7.5 and I feel they're underrated this year. With how I project a big jump from the OL and even more offensive production, they'll be both a pretty good and exciting team both on offense and defense with true impact/NFL guys on both sides.

It should be a fun year on and off the field IMO. They have another pretty good foundation already laid and the summer isn't over.

What's the regression going to look like at QB? Hard to talk about being underrated when that particular position is an unknown.

Any chance Stepp can pull off the 1-2 punch of Konkey and Knowles? That would be one heck of a size and speed WR combo to land.

I'm still hoping they can add Murray-Kelly as well. Elite WR trio with speed to burn (And Knowles is 6'3 with legit 4.5+ speed).
