Illinois Hoops Recruiting Thread

[Fly Illini Fly!]

Kitt has a lot of similarities to Morez when he committed to us. Not super highly ranked but will be a late riser. Plays with other guys who are ranked high and still shining. Built like a unit and already has a BIG body with a year to play.

Morez was top 35 from the moment the rankings came out.

Morez was top 35 from the moment the rankings came out.

He was composite low 50s and rated 61st at one point his Jr year.

Kitt isn't a great comparison but Morez wasn't 35ish start to finish.

I think your thinking of morez old teammate James brown was rated really highly his freshman and sophomore years ahead of morez before morez emerged in the rankings

From the videos I've seen, he doesn't look to be close to the run/jump athlete that Morez was. But I hope I'm wrong and I've just missed the videos showing him jumping out of the gym.

Teammate James Brown was actually higher rated when Brad scooped up Morez. Brad was right.

I think Morez was more of a fringe 100s guy initially.

James Brown was the higher rated St Rita kid and then they kind of flipped throughout high school.

Would love him in 2027 and keep Brady in 2028.
