Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread (January-March 2016)
- Status
Went to the gym figuring by the time I got back it would be known who the mystery visitor is tomorrow.
Looks like we're still guessing!
Which is usually a good sign when the staff/recruit want to keep it quiet.
Maybe Justin Jackson? :noidea:
Who was it that posted Wednesday is the day? Surely they have some more info.
VictoryIllinois77. Had to sift through multiple pages of Chastain discussion to figure that one out though.
and to no one's surprise: not much to see here. Stars almost were aligning.
I'm going to guess its a transfer and I'm thinking maybe the goodluck kid or Simon from Arizona. Just a guess but should be interesting to see who it is and information coming

Terrence Lewis? Piper reporting he's visiting tomorrow. Milwaukee prospect.
So what do we know? Not a splash for me unless he's a stud...
Need this visit to be from a big. One way or another. Oh well.
Edit: It's a 2017 wing, EXACTLY what we need...
makes sense.... offered in late feb. good piece. borderline top 100 '17.
Loyalty insiders strike again.
Good to have him on campus though. Making in roads to Milwaukee area would be nice, if we can extend it beyond Lucas.

Stop complaining kid is easy top 75 kid. Terrence Lewis is very close with Tejon Lucas so that really helps us out would play the 3 here at Illinois. Kid is very long and athletic I am a big fan of his game.
I absolutely love what coach is doing with the wings tho yes we may have 1000 of them but the size on all of them in the recent classes : Kipper 6'7 AJ 6'5 DJW 6'7 Pickett 6'6 even Damonte is 6'3.

At this point the way Ohio State is losing players I'm very much ok with this visit
Never disappointed when a kid visits. This doesn't affect Goodwin or Tilmon and we've learned that you should never worry about scholarship numbers. If the kid commits to a wing heavy roster, he must be really really confident. Doesn't make sense to me given our roster but the staff knows our current situation more than we do.
Very good kid to get on campus, and need to do diligence, but with Pickett and Williams in fold, it would be hard to take him with Goodwin. Hopefully this is just recruiting, and not a signal of something.

I'm a fan of Lewis. Makes a good complement to Pickett. Long and bouncy, with nice touch on his jumper. The #1 SF on my list? No, but a good player. How many schollies to give for '17?
PG/CG: Da'Monte
SG:Lewis, Goodwin
SF: Pickett, Lewis, Goodwin
PF: Tilmon, John, Culver
C: Tilmon, John, Culver
You aren't going to hit on all those guys. Does IL have a real shot at any '17 SG/SF after Goodwin & Lewis?

Small ball is all the rage and will probably continue to gain popularity. Groce might be looking at one or more of these wing prospects to play the stretch four in small lineups.
