Plus the days go backwards there.
That would explain why Nicole Kidman & Naomi Watts never seem to age. They don’t just look young; they’re actually getting younger. (Real Life female Benjamin Button(s) if you will.

Indy Illini Fan: 1. With Wagler committing, and Lee predicted to be committing, would the Illini take a commitment from another guard, Furphy, in the Class of 2025? 2. Where do you think Illinois stands with Furphy? What teams are ahead of Illinois (at the moment) in his recruitment? Do you think Illinois has a decent chance in the Furphy recruitment?

not Indy, not an insider...where's the eff yeah! Crush chick GIF? Furphy's a pure point, Lee and Wagler aren't.

1. We’d take another guard … Would have to be the right one … Furphy would be in that group … I expect one of Lee/Wagler to potentially redshirt …

2. We’re top 3 with Furphy … I fully expect UConn to land one of Braylon Mullins/Darius Adams (hearing Adams is a done deal to UConn at this point) and if they got both … Would have think they’re 100% out for Furphy … I’ll get a better vibe on where we stand after the visit … But Brad wants him and we have a track record at this point to see how Brad does when he locks in on a kid … I like our chances … 🤷🏻‍♂️

Have things kind of trended out with Brown? Seemed like there was some noise there. Furphy's a fine guard to target as well...seems like he's more than capable of being viewed of a top 30-50ish player.

how good is furphy? idk much about int guys but interested to know. seems like he might be good?

is there anyone else staff is targeting (like mikel brown maybe)? tbh, if furphy is a top 30 level guy, we don't necessarily need anymore guards.

Hard to know how to react to HS commitments these days, but as always it's nice to see our staff locking up the players they target.
This is a young man that can be something for our Illini. Plus, he won't cost us 1 million in the portal. Great get and welcome.

Also for those that care about other Big Ten recruiting …

Jalen Haralson to ND … Gonna announce here in a bit … Was always going to happen as soon as Shrews hired Ghost as his assistant … Glad we don’t have to go against that kid, he’s a stud …

MSU is reportedly not going to land Darius Adams … UConn bound …

Mullins trending away from IU …

Mikel Brown visit looking less and less likely for us … Ole Miss, AZ, IU, Maryland, and Kentucky seem to be the 5 …

Any other recruiting info you want feel free to reply and if I’ve got info to share I will …

Great day for Illinois Basketball … Big fan of the Brandon Lee pickup … I-L-L … 🔶🔷
