This shouldn’t be a surprise … When it’s time for O to freaking cook … He always delivers …

That’s why he gets the big bucks …

Someone asked if we’d land a top 40 kid … I answered no … Which is true … I hope this is close enough … 😎

Although I think Rivals has him top 40 now ?

I don’t know or really care about rankings … LOL

Kid will be a dude … That’s what I know …
Are we done with the high school guys or will Brad take one more

How good do you think he will be? Will he make an impact right away?

The almost complete lack of continuity from one year to the next is what bothers me the most. It gets harder to cheer for the Illini when you are constantly asking yourself who you are looking at from one play to the next.

How do you fix that? Take away NIL and all of the other rights that the players fought so hard to win. I sure as heck ain't gonna advocate doing that.

So... I am gonna try to get over it, but I still don't like it. It is a problem without a solution.
I have found that if I place a small bet on the Illini to win the big ten before the season starts it holds my interest all season.

I agree, Indy. This kid will be a dude! I like his versatility, his basketball iq, and everything about his game. 247 lists Morillo as a SG. On3 lists him as a PG. He's a SF on ESPN. He's a PG on Rivals. 247 ranks Morillo as the #56 overall prospect in the Class of 2026. Rivals ranks Morillo as the #32 overall prospect. Great job by Coach Orlando Antigua with Morillo's recruitment. Indy, what school was our main competition at the end?

Credit where it’s due to Brad and staff …

Constanza price got out of control … Pivot … Cam Holmes wants to stay out West … Pivot … Jervis was playing games about asking price … Pivot … Adam wants to stay east coast and honestly didn’t give off good vibes on his visit … Pivot …

And we land a top 50 kid who IMO, may be the best fit of all of them for our team and culture …

That’s how it’s freaking done …
