Seems like 2019 just might be turning a new leaf for Illinois sports. Is the curse finally lifted?
Been in the works for a loooong time now.Maybe it's because I'm in the midst of finishing my some dissertation edits, but "It’s being reported by Slater that Archie is transferring to Illinois" sandwiched between two generic descriptive paragraphs about the player is just lazy writing.
From what source is it being reported? Are you, article author Jeremy Clark, the source reporting this?
Perhaps I should be less pedantic interpreting a tabloid article on college basketball recruiting.

Yeah, definitely. If the current freshmen and Frazier all stay and you can add Kofi, January, Archie that has the makings of a very good team. Would still love to land Shannon on top of that, but that is what it is...

#TruthThere's obviously zero logic to recruiting. Kofi visits campus at the deadest time of year, witnesses our worst loss in a decade, and (is about to) commit.

Does anyone know when the news regarding the recruits will break?
Samba Kane would like some pub please. More potential next year than Higgs and January imoSo we could have as of today potentially the following for next year contributing:
Kofi - Top 25 player
Jones - Top 100 player
January - Top 100, may not qualify?
Archie - Top 100 player
Ayo - Top 50 player
Frazier - Proven PT guard who will be here 4 years imo
Giorgi - Low ranked-high ceiling player
Higgs - 1 year of practice and get in shape?
Griffin - Bardo type but much better shot!
Possibly 2 more Top players yet tbd.....we could definately be onto something if this pans out. That is a huge upgrade in talent
I'm going to refresh this page all day until we get news of a Kofi commit!!
We have to change our offense if Kodi and January are coming here. You can't run the pinch post with them up high. Will have to figure out how to get them in isolation in post, possibly pick and rolls which I have yet to see in the Underwood offense. Hopefully he can mesh all this talent together to be able to compete in the Big by next year.
