(Georgia Tech? - my memory fails me here) filled their guard slot with someone else.

They took Jarrett Jack.

Looks improved. I see a little Tom Michael in his game.

I see a lot of Larry Bird................I really really do............

 

[Battle89]

They took Jarrett Jack.

And I thought someone 'above' them got a player, which made Jack fall to them, and Deron fall to us. Am I right or making this up?

I thought UNC was somehow involved in this domino.

UNC got Raymond Felton and GT got Jarrett Jack.

Chester has ID'd lots of kids who have really risen in terms of offers, notoriety and ranking. I'm gonna ride with his judgement. Also, it appears that Underwood has gone from intrigued to pretty enamored. Again, more than good enough for me.

Well he is a backup plan. Let's hope we can grab M. Lewis. Piper said earlier this week he thinks LSU might have a slight edge.

Scott Richey:
Class of 2024 four-star guard Mikey Lewis on his official visit at Illinois.

Stopped at Bielfeldt on his tour at a pretty good time this afternoon with Hall of Famers Deon Thomas and Kenny Battle in the building. #Illini

I'm thinking that I am all for a high scoring combo guard!

hoping for DeNiro, followed shortly by Denzel or just skip Bobby D altogether.

pretty flippin' impressive clip, especially for a newly minted soph. If that's representative, he's in high 4 star territory, if not 5 star

I’d treat it like a Denzel if he starts following the walk-ons

Lewis ... Butler ... Gill ... Fears ...

 

[ORANGEANDBLUE2011]

I saw Mikey today at the game and he looked like he was having a good time. He was chatting with Chester and a man who looked a hell of a lot like Brian Randle if it wasn’t Brian Randle. I have good guts for this one!
