Roy Schmidt (and his bro) aren't exactly the font of Illini recruiting. Then again, even a blind squirrel finds an acorn every now and then.

How in the world do you see Roy's tweets? I've tried several times to follow him but he denies me ha

This is the team Frazier and FE beat yesterday. SS is also in the championship bracket playing on court 4, Frazier and FE on court 5.

Agreed. The competition didn't seem great so you'd expect him to dominate which it looked like he did. The kid has got some tools to work with.
Reminds me a little of Josh Sharma
I love this response from Borzello...

@jeffborzello harry giles and tatum on duke is huge for the whole CBB world . A real contender , not a waste of a year
Jeff Borzello – Verified account @jeffborzello
@whiteboyshooter Yeah, that waste of a year was brutal for Simmons. No. 1 pick. Going to a blue blood worked out well for Cheick/Skal, right

This tourney puts the Frazier doubts to bed, amirite? Kid looks legit.
Could it be Frazier?

The birdies are chirping. Groce in STL twice in one day.
Yep. The rumblings are getting loud again. Hope we're about to add another big horse to this Illini stampede!

Florida Elite wins 70-60. They are in the final four of the championship bracket. Did not see that coming. Play Southern Stampede EYBL again tomorrow morning at 10 CT.

Totally legit. John Groce has a real ability to spot talent early.

For years, we've been pointing towards the Class of 2017. Seems like it's really happening.

It's like we're playing chess and just about everyone else is playing checkers. After years of playing checkers. So sweet.

Yep. John Groce has made a few adjustments in his approach to recruiting, and he now seems to be dialing up all the right numbers. :thumb:
John Groce is SoFloAntonio confirmed
College basketball is more about talent than coaching, and it's especially about having talent that fits your scheme. If Groce finishes this class with Goodwin, Frazier, and someone like Smith, he's going to have a stable full of thoroughbreds. We might look back a decade from now on this summer as the turning point for Illini hoops. The anti-Groce crowd will be so confused.

NY2LA: Update on 2017 wing Terrence Lewis | Story: http://www.scout.com/college/basketball/recruiting/story/1686845-ny2la-coaches-see-terrence-lewis …
NY2LA: Coaches see Terrence Lewis
“The schools recruiting me the hardest are Illinois, Xavier, Iowa State, Auburn, Miami and that’s it mostly I’m planning to take visits in the summer,” he added.
Although Lewis hasn’t set any visit dates, he does known which schools he wants to see.
“I’m going to visit UNLV, Oregon, Xavier, Iowa State and Miami probably or Illinois again,” Lewis said.

Unless we get Goodwin or another Top 50 kid instead, I think it will be just a pretty nice top 20 or so class.
Tilmon was huge get for sure.
Right now we have two three star guys and if we add Frazier another three star.
Really need another big dog to make a Top 10 type class.
Still behind the type of classes being reeled in by top tier programs, but definitely a nice step for us.
@NateLatsch
Jordan Goodwin just had a one-handed putback dunk that I really hope someone got on video. (And I wish I had.) @STLEaglesBBall

Justin Young @JustinDYoung 12m12 minutes ago Saturday stud: Trent Frazier of Florida Elite is taking on all comers. Was terrific (again) today. Has team in #BOTS Final Four.
How different you can feel about a player in just one week's time. I was a skeptic and while this wasn't Peach Jam, it was a legit tourney with 72 17u teams including some Nike EYBL squads and he's been one of the best 5 or 6 players in it. My opinion counts for nought but I'll be happy if we get him.
