I feel bad for THT if he genuinely wants to go to Illinois. That would suck to know where you want to go and get your heart set on that and then have a rug pulled out from under you. Just MO, but those that say this isn't a big deal are wrong. There's no way to spin this as anything less than a huge blow.
but... it's not really a big deal. The Illinois stock went up to $100 after Ayo committed, went up a few bucks when it looked like THT was going to come, and is probably back down to $100 if he doesn't commit tonight.
Nothings actually changed from a week or so ago.
