Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread (September 2018)
- Status
Well this obviously shows the level of fear that UK might have over us luring in Oscar this weekend along with the other two....they had to offer, otherwise lose out to the ILLINI for a high level recruit. Don't want to take a chance and be that school with the wrong hat chosen later.....uhhhh, wait....nevermind.
Doesnt really change anything. It still most likely depends on Wiseman. Does anyone know if Wiseman has a commitment timeline set yet?
Think it changes everything.....unfortunately.
It would have been a huge surprise if they hadn't offered during the in home visit.

According to this today....next spring? https://www.commercialappeal.com/st...y-2019-jalen-green-penny-hardaway/1332667002/
Wiseman is also really close friends with Jeffries who just left UK and the stink that came after....I am guessing that play a part in a final decision. Memphis is sitting really well with him, and he has the clout to bring the other 2 in.
If I was reading tea leaves which I never do, I just drink with them....I would say at least 2 of the 3 if not all 3 will be at the same place....dont count out Hardaway on this one. If that plays out UK would be open to Oscar to go there?

Must be Chappelle GIF day at IL today.
Yep. I didn't really think he'd make it here this weekend, and I actually hope that he doesn't. Focus on the two guys we actually have a chance with.
You really think he wants to play behind the best recruit in the country?

I said this before, but he just doesn't seem like the kind of person who goes to Kentucky. Idk.

That's a potent combo of coach and program.
We keep saying that.....yet so many of these kids go there anyway.
And we know exactly how they feel.

Does this somehow affect us?
Shannon is listed as cool with them according to 24/7....somehow I believe that Shannon with Liddell along with either Timme or Walker will be our class. 6-7-6-8-6-9 additions and all active. Man that would be nice and still getting us back to "Flyin Illini" status.
