Best concert tee ever.

Any recruiting updates for our beloved? Just saw 5* Brandon Miller commit to Bama. Nate Oats' second 5* commit this cycle. I guess Bama is now more willing to throw money around for basketball as well. I would love to see Illinois recruit at the same level given our history as a basketball school.

It's just left-over football slush fund money.

Yes. Steve Buscemi is a cool guy.

They are getting Noah Clowney later today... Stole him from IU at the last minute.

Hearing they are the ones to beat for Rylan Griffen and Jarace Walker.

Pettway and Hodgson are absolute sharks on the trail as well... Oats is building himself a powerhouse

Awww, that's a crying shame!

 

[whatahack]

Yes. Steve Buscemi is a cool guy.

Yeah but...are his growth plates still open

 

[BostonIllini]

Yes. Steve Buscemi is a cool guy.

I heard he's also sneaky athletic. Plays like Larry Bird.

The 2nd best thing after recruits commiting to Illinois is other B1G schools missing on recruits, so I'll take it.

Actually, Larry Bird wasn't all that athletic.

Speaking of Ty Rodgers....DB hb11 any updates, you seemed pensive Saturday.

MSU is pushing hard, but the beloved are in a very good spot with Rodgers. Could see a decision soon.

He was just there....is that good?

It’s never “good” when one of your important targets is visiting other top schools on his list. But it’s part of the process. Hope we can close this one down soon.

We need to get ink to paper on these two in early signing period!

Agree. Both look like absolute dogs. If we can somehow add Rogers, I think that’s a 3 dog class.

Pretty sure there's no issues with these 2. Harris has even been putting a countdown to signing day on his instagram stories every once in awhile.
