I don't purport to know about the other guys ranked in that area in this class, but it had sure seemed to me like Frazier was a Top 100 guy based on where I've always understood that line to be. Congrats to him.

No kidding. The guy is practically bathing in laurels in Florida. It's only right he be recognized a little better for it.

I saw a bruninga highlight video of him dribbling between his legs in slow motion.....Just dribbling. In my opinion he doesn't pass the eye test but that doesn't mean that a kid with the right work ethic and attitude can't get any better.

Was he a better or worse dribbler than Jack Krap?

Knox is rolling up UNC predictions including one from a Florida guy on a day when Knox was in CoMo and Miznoz fans still think he's going there. More of a chance Tilmon and Knox end up together at CH than Mizzou. Although K might have the last word on that.
Think Knox just wanted to party with Porter for one last weekend and got Mizzou to pay for it.

Find me a player that Mizzou fans don't think they're getting right now. They're probably floating scenarios where guys walk-on.

I think Luther Head is going to pay for Jeremiah Tilmon to go there when they fill all their scholarships.

Tilmon drops because he did not impress in HS games with enormous size and athleticism advantage. I do not think he's ranking is illini-related. Frazier did not drop in Rivals as a illini commit and re-commit.

2015 class is about rightly assessed by the recruit website, except DJW is overacted. TJL in 2016 is underrated. HM, KN, LB were top 100 recruits and they are indeed good. Mav, Colbert and Finke were not there.

So I would say illini players were assessed generally correct in the past few years. If there is a team get biased of recruit ranking in B1G, that is Wisconsin.

It's this Saturday in Louisville. He was a late edition to the roster. After or before the game, his family will make the short drive over to Lexington.

The weekend after that "I've heard" he is planning an official visit to Ohio State.

Never mind. Looked it up. I suppose everyone knows this already but Mark Smith is playing in that classic. One of only two "undecideds"

Woj saying Bridges is leaning toward staying at MSU . Would probably be favorable for us regarding smith. But yikes, pray for the rest of the Big Ten

I didn't feel he got the recognition he deserved for how he played this past season. He looked a video-game created player out there a majority of the time. Scary, scary good.

If Bridges stays, MSU has a lot of firepower next year. That team is going to be scary.

Ben Carter and Schilling's potential redshirt recovery are keys too.

Brian Bowen said other schools not on final list have reached out to see if they can get involved. Oregon, Missouri, Ohio State among them.
