Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread (July-August 2016)

Dude, we are on a UI basketball message board, we are ALL nerds!

In mid July I might add.:thumb:

 

[illini8507]

Tilmon said himself that he didnt go to Althoff because there was a chance he wouldnt be eligible and didnt want to miss any time. Nothing about any transcript stuff.

That, and he and his lalu teammates really want to win Dicks Nationals this year

 

[jrichisamazing]

Very interesting. Think Tilmon will have some pull? Epperson's game dovetails nicely with Tilmon's.

Very interesting indeed. Hopefully Groce can get him on campus this fall.

What can Beilein do with an unknown 3-star guard?

Everything. I know who Kevin Pittsnogle is because of Beilein.

Yeah, Pittsnogle, LaVert, Burke...

Ha! I was referring to these guys, but that works too.

Or maybe these guys that I used to see performing at Mabel's back in the day.

 

[Illinimobile]

I realize that this is way off on a tangent doesn't belong in a basketball recruiting thread, but I just discovered this after my last post and thought maybe some might enjoy reminiscing.

[ChicagoChief]

It was pretty clear.

Just wanted to throw in Joe Alexander real quick
