Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread (May-June 2018)
- Status
I was thinking of a picnic in Alaska, but now I'm afraid this may start an Anchorage vs Champaign pros/cons list.
Interestingly, Tevian is 1 spot ahead of Zion Griffin. Big rise for Griffin IIRC.
That is the 247sports ranking, not the 247sports composite ranking. In the composite, Jones is 114th and Griffin is 117th.
The difference between 247sports' own ranking and their composite ranking is a frequent source of confusion. For example, E.J. Liddell recently went from 90th to 84th in 247sports ranking; which some misconstrued as a drop. He is still 62nd in the composite.
"The 247Sports Composite Rating is a proprietary algorithm that compiles prospect "rankings" and "ratings" listed in the public domain by the major media recruiting services."
"247Sports produces ratings and rankings that contribute to the 247Sports Composite. These ratings can also be viewed along side the 247Sports Composite for a comparison."

Where are you seeing this?
247 has him at 278 in the composite and 344 overall. He was top 100 for 2019 I believe though.

Who is Schmidt and how did they get him to volunteer to test these things?

I am liking our chances with Kahlil Whitney.
Hearing list likely to be cut before HS season, possibly sooner.
I REALLY want to believe you but your username is giving me the shakes for some reason.
Sorry about the multiple posts on the same topic, but this is instructive.

Didn't see info regarding visit but if this is OV , it would be his last. That would mean no visit to Arizona. Feel better about our chances vs Neby. Was this info of visit from a scout, nothing posted on 24/7 ?

Lincoln is a lot closer to KC than Champaign. Not sure I like our chances in that one any better than versus AZ.Didn't see info regarding visit but if this is OV , it would be his last.

Actually he did have an Illinois offer. He seemed to be one of the plan B options if Ayo didn't work out.
Old joke, but he probably refers to to your username starting with "Indy" as IndyOldSchool (EJ Gordon's dad) posting on Illiniboard.
I didn' t hear that buzz. If you heard a buzz, pls advise where you heard it
