Good question. I assume it has to do with not being able to talk about specific recruits until they've signed. Maybe they just leave it up to the player to tweet it our or something if they want.

So, isn't anyone stalking CM on social media? Did he post anything that would give a hint?

Which is why it probably isn't CM that JKat was talking about, Irwin would be telling/tweeting someone.

Quiet as far as how they went, but not quiet that they happened. A few national writers were tweeting out the dates of his visits.

Those were officials though. This would be an unofficial just a couple hours from home. Recruiting analysts may not get wind of it if the player doesn't tell them.

We got word of the unofficial to Georgia Tech. The Irvin's aren't very tactful when it comes to secrecy.

My thoughts as well. It was out there he was at SMU & GT. For Illinois only a Piper quote he would visit.

Didn't we get word of that the next day?

I believe so & it certainly is a more significant trip to GT. Just seems a bit lighter on the Illinois side in general, throw in the Fire side & being the home state school that likes to get trolled...would have expected a definite if he had visited by now.

I'm not really sure of the timing there. It could be. I just don't think if there was a visit it was Moore, or we'd have heard.

I think this refers back to another rumor I heard a couple weeks ago.

ESPN 100 PG Charlie Moore told ESPN he will visit LSU today and SMU on Sunday. Former Memphis signee.

2016 point guard Charlie Moore will visit LSU on Wednesday, source told @CBSSports. Best PG remaining in class.

Speaking of Charlie, he had an UV to GT yesterday.

Looks like TC the day after on GT, stuck the main tweets on 2 officials.

And what might that be?! It's a slow day at work and I could use some rumors to daydream about.

My info regarding GT UV came from tweet from Jon Rothstein/CBS. It now appears to be gone. Anyway somebody can check "archives" on Rothstein's tweets??

Charlie Moore (@Charliem_2), who visited LSU & Georgia Tech this week, is on campus at SMU for his official, per @BillyEmbody. Illinois next.
