how many in-homes can a school have? is there a limit? I've seen multiple visits to many of our recruits by various members of the staff. Just curious.

EDIT: Obviously they weren't all in-homes but I know I've seen where coaches visit homes at different times.

I think there's a limit of 7 face-to-face contacts with a maximum of 3 of those off campus.

will it ever get easier to be an Illini fan?

Been a fan over 50 years, I don't ever remember easier. But, thru the years there been some mighty good moments, that makes it all worth it.:chief:


Got to think this year might be other good moment;)

It was real easy 12-13 years ago.

Huge weekend for #Illini hoops on the recruiting scene. Had a good conversation with @jakeweingarten on some big announcements coming up.

Doesn't necessarily mean good news, but nice he had a good conversation.
I guess.

Speaking of Jake, I didn't even know we were out of it.

Do not believe false reports of ‘18 George Conditt eliminating Illinois from his top-3. They’re false, #Illini are still in it.

Conditt's dad tweeted a pic of George in a Lobos Jersey next to a pic in a Cyclone jersey and said pick one or something like that, the twittersphere went crazy thinking those were his final two

It's really too bad we weren't the last OV for any of our biggest targets. For some reason I have the usual feeling that we finish bridesmaids for Conditt, Castleton, and Nolley. I hope I'm wrong but it really hurts that the last thing on their minds is a visit somewhere other than Illinois.

Also, who is this Jake Weingarten guy and why are a ton of recruits talking to him so much these days?

Just crazy, but Jake works for Rivals/tOSU.

Its all good. Those who want to choose Illini will be grateful they did. Best wishes to those who dont and I hope their regrets are not too severe as they witness our success.
