Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

[Mr. Roberts]

Any understanding of why Stojakovic is waiting before making an announcement? Seems to be something both camps want...been talked about for over a week now. What's the hold up?!

Perhaps it's like a lottery winner. Get your tax guy and financial planner to set things up before you claim the prize.

Or not.

Per sauce last night, that will be explained once the commitment is announced.

Must be some good sauce! I like Taco bell spicy sauce...

I call it the "VIC-tory" lineup

Rumor circulating is he’s announcing before noon today.

Well it's already past noon in eastern Europe!

BIG, BIG thumbs up for your avatar: it's perfect, lol

Someone more fluent in Croatian, Serbian, or another Slavic language needs to come up with creative translations or spins on "State Farm Center" and "Orange Krush"

Put that on a shirt & it’ll sell like hotcakes

Edit: CampusInk I take checks made out to PizzaHutParkingLot

Do we know how much eligibility he will have? Is he a 1-year rental at 22? or could we possibly have a core for at least a couple of years?

no one knows yet, but the consensus is 2 years

Some had suggested they are expecting 2 years

Something new for all the doomsayers on here to freak out over.

Watch how quickly we all pivot to a commitment watch for Dez or Boogie this afternoon.

IMO you have to look at every recruit as a 1-year deal these days. Even that might be hopeful as they could decide to transfer at the semester.

 

[Muskie]

over.

Getting greedy here but is there still talk of signing another player? Lville thanks for all your info you have given us!

 

[Illwinsagain]

OK, I am off until noon.....I am telling myself.

Of course now, I have to worry about which timezone......

It may be related to his current, existing NIL and final payments

Well it's already past noon in eastern Europe!

But it's only 6:44 AM in California. Remember that he is an American.
