Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread (March 2021)

[JW]

Plenty of depth. He should take to Illinois like a fish to water.

Congrats and welcome.

Though I'm a little surprised we aren't aiming higher. 3 star recruit but likely they believe he will be a 4 in his senior year. Trust Underwood and OA over me.

One recruit down....many to come

Curious - who's "WE"? I can't think of anyone more connected than Tate.

Trent's father is the source. Check his Twitter. Or scroll back some pages on this thread or the 20-21 thread. It exists.

Now we just need a big BIG. Kofi got a cousin?

Walleye know we hammerheaded it home. We are the sharks and not the chum

Used my "walleye". Nice.

I used to wonder what superstar would want to come here. Now I ask which one wouldn't.

Just saw this on my Timeline.

My kid coached him in Summer Ball with Team Teague. I had no idea he was leaning this way. Been watching this kid since grade school before he transferred out of Muncie. Muncie Central missed him this last few years.

Excited to see him play for Coach and get coached up. Been doing work the last few years.

Would appreciate insights on his game and character.

Also, before I forget again, props to Combes for calling this ~3 weeks ago.

If I was him, the puns would get old. Kind of childish.

I'm sure most people he encounters on a regular basis aren't making fish puns.

Zagsblog on Bass: https://www.zagsblog.com/2021/03/19/class-of-2022-guard-reggie-bass-to-illinois/

"A few of the players reached out sharing their views and passion for the school which made me feel more comfortable with my decision, plus I get to play with my boy Luke Goode.” Love it. Get Washington and we become Team Indiana, lol.

Hey, today is Reggie Bass' birthday. Happy birthday!

Hearing rumblings already that e.j. may transfer if nba doesnt come knocking.. Should be interesting.

We're gonna need to petition to have 22 scholarships

Remember the Titans movie character. Was it Bass that got the game ball?

He would have had a lot more fun today if he had a do-over.

Last couple of games haven’t helped him. Is he showing up on mock drafts? I don’t follow that stuff, but I certainly thought he playing well enough to go.
