good point. it is disappointing, though. to have top instate kid declare illinois his leader, then commit to a rival in-league school a few weeks later is a bit disconcerting.
but to be honest, i was always somewhat skeptical of turner coming to illinois. the st. joes-illinois history is not good, and i was always bothered by the fact that turner has a lot of family in columbus and spends a lot of time here.
that, and you have to give matta props. dudes a helluva recruiter. still has something to prove as a coach, imo, but a great recruiter no doubt.
Weber should just not even try in Chicago, he is just losing them left and right.
