Hopefully I’m wrong tho
Still plenty of time for OA and the staff to work there numbers before Monday! 🗄

Ok, I totally understand that position. I'm hoping that your wrong as well! We are kinda trending in the CB department right now but I know how fluid recruiting is so they say, lol.No, I’m saying that the chances of Jones committing to us on Monday is trending downwards from slim... to none ‼‼
Not saying it’s completely out of the realm of possibilities but it’s not looking good at this point in time.
When you have a team that just entered the conversation a week ago and is now the perceived leader you start to wonder what other kinds of twists and turns this recruitment could take.
That’s why I said, if he does *ever* commit to us, it won’t be this Monday
Well this aged poorly.....Has Depaul ever not liked their chances on landing a recruit?
Well this aged poorly.....
Whats your take on Nesbitt and Mac?I will drop a little positive news in this recruitment bubble that’s about to burst!
... We have A LOT better chance at Bryce Hopkins than people think!
kentucky shmucky!! Hopkins will be are highest rated recruit in this class!!
You heard it here 1st!
unless Chet Holemgren and Michael Foster want to come play along, but they don’t. They want to get paid!
I am also hearing that the “power shift” of who is calling the shots at DePaul now has extremely upset the Bynum camp...
What’s he rated again??
Whats your take on Nesbitt and Mac?
He’s right. Still really like where they are with Mac. And the gas is back on the pedal for Nesbitt after not commuting to SLU.guys like 4040 or Moggs may not better than I but from everything I can tell the staff has not conceded ANYTHING here!
From what the Family is telling the staff we are still very much so in the thick of things!! Nor have the Nesbitt’s made a decision yet, so...

Meant to say know better instead of not better! And absolutely! Thank you 4040! Great info because there was definitely some break in the line of communication there somewhere and I’m hoping he doesn’t ever end up commuting to SLU ... EVER!!guys like 4040 or Moggs may know better than I but from everything I can tell the staff has not conceded ANYTHING here!

Ur sounding pretty plugged right now my friend. I must say..i love hoops recruiting when Illinois is good. A lot of crazy recruitments to follow.
i'm getting Romeo Weems vibes with this oneWell this aged poorly.....
let’s connect some dots here...
https://www.espn.com/blog/collegeba...3417/joe-b-hall-kept-from-coaching-ex-uk-pros
I know he’s not mentioned in this article, but Peevy is the same coach who was just hired at DePaul who orchestrated all of this for Coach Cal at UK ...
Peevy set up the camps and the clinics and the negotiated the 800K price tag for these events in the DR when other schools would go down there for the same thing and spend 40K. That’s a lot of money to spread around! But anything goes for coach Cal and Kentucky...
DePaul recognized the source and hired the man (Peevy) from the DR, who is now calling the shots at DePaul. Allegedly he has just as much juice, if not more, in the DR than Antigua..
There all connected to the same guys (Antigua and Peevy that is).
Shall I go on...???
I’m getting the feeling this is someone on our current staffThe real dot connection will begin when Peevy lets Leitao go and a replacement needs to be named.
Why is this so scary? I feel like this is a relatively common scenario for successful programs.i mean he was at South Florida and that didn’t really work...
I think OA is working himself up somewhere bigger than DePaul, but I could be wrong!
if that happened, Would sting really bad and be the absolute utmost WORSE turn of events possible!!
At this point, after thinking of those possibilities... I would almost run laps around the DePaul campus naked 10 times If they hired Nick Irvin and not our boy OA!
gosh that’s scary to think about!!

Big, big fan of the staff BU has here at Illinois, big fan of OA and would hate to see him leave, but I'm gaining confidence in Underwood to find another really good assistant who can recruit wellWhy is this so scary? I feel like this is a relatively common scenario for successful programs.
Are you implying Illini wouldn’t land any comparable recruits without OA? I get BU may lose some to OA, or need to shift the strategy, but is that anything a BU program couldn’t survive?

OA has recruited awesome, I wish he would stay here for many more years, but if he wasn't here Underwood would have a lot of money to find another ace recruiter - I'm not saying as good as OA, but someone who could still do wellIt will not be Nick. Peevy and OA were together at UK for 5 years. Some UK insiders think that the Wildcats will never win another NC without OA, because OA was so important to the success of that program. Heck, just take the guys off of Illinois that OA has his fingerprints on and where would be.??
