The latest CB pick for Ayo is Jerry Meyer to Kansas :(

Would not look to much into that. I am sure he will change his CB multiple times, as the process continues.

BU & staff are doing all they can possibly do to get Ayo in the O&B. I think that a couple of other schools are in the mix as legitimate landing spots. Kentucky being one, but they have yet to extend an offer.

Kansas loves to raid Illinois for Talent. Looks like they are aiming to have a Chicago Public School Point guard on the court at all times.

It's a safe bet, it generates traffic, and it gets him a nice big score if/when he's right.

Kind of a no-brainer thing for Meyer to do. It's too early to get actually concerned.

in the article the author mentions he doubts we offer Liberty. Any particular reason why?

I'm assuming it's based on available scholarships versus where the Illini currently stand on higher-ranked recruits (Ayo, THT, Finke, Conditt, and others.)

I am going to be honest. I go to a lot of games. I am from Chicago. Now I don't consider myself to be a recruiting guru, but I have never heard of the kid. I know he is not a top 100 player or close to it. He might be a reach for the big ten like Pickett was. I hope he develops and does well except when they play Simeon.. lol

Random observations from the Twitter pics: THT has some LONG arms! OA is a BIG dude.
