Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

Very fascinated to see how Cayden Daughtry will turn out. In terms of HS hoops, he’s had the most spectacular run quite possibly ever.

The only knock…. is he’s 6”0.

The spelling of "ILLIDIE HARD" was intentional. And still haven't had one response about my post other than evidently no one has clue!
They’ll likely come from Europe, good chance we might not even hear those names until they commit ala Mirk

I know the oh boy is sarcasm but it kind of makes sense to target prep wings.

Bigs take the longest to develop and tend to stay in school longer than wings(if you're 6'7-6'8, athletic, and can shoot you are going to the NBA).

You have a much better chance of getting vet bigs in the portal than you do you adding an athletic wing that can shoot.

I'm sure they will add bigs at some point but I would expect them to be targeting upper classman to replace the twins when they leave instead of going expecting freshman bigs to fill the role(Kofi was nearly a unicorn tbh).

Do you realize that no one on this board had Vaaks or Coleman on their radar at this point last year and now they’re leading our back court? Ipso facto, we’ll probably have a really good big or 2 ready to take over for T & Z at this point next year.
