April 12, 20178 yr Werner says sources confirmed Coleman will be the 3rd assistant. I don't hate it, I also don't love it (Martin would've been huge). Time to go get Ayo now.
April 18, 20178 yr Author Jay BilasVerified account @JayBilas If truly students and not employees, there can be no restrictions whatsoever on transfers. Meeting adjourned. https://yhoo.it/2opprv2
April 18, 20178 yr I think Valpo is going to be your 10th Valley team. Obviously not Wichita and the Valley is going to be a bad 1 bid league for a while but it could be a worse replacement. Edited April 18, 20178 yr by Rowand44

April 24, 20178 yr Mark Smith announcing Wednesday at 6pm. Would be a huge get to along with Williams and Frazier.

April 24, 20178 yr Supposedly Mizzou's coaching staff has been informed that Knox will go to Duke, which would likely lead to Jontay Porter reclassifying.

If Smith does commit to Illinois, I wonder if Tilmon reconsiders again. Odd that we haven't heard anything about him other than a Kansas visit two weeks ago.

Mizzou should be worried. JT has significantly better offers from significantly better programs.

I don't know who is in the lead, but I know last year when I saw him, Roy Williams was there in person.
April 25, 20178 yr Not sure Mizzou should be worried about better programs, Illini fans have established he is only seeking a better offer so as long as we keep that up.
April 25, 20178 yr QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Apr 25, 2017 -> 02:18 PM) Charlie Moore has committed to Kansas As an Illini fan, I'm hoping this came about because the Illini staff informed him that Smith plans on committing tomorrow. Pretty reasonable considering all that I've seen over the last week or so.
April 25, 20178 yr No one really knows what Smith will do, but Piper is feeling good about it and that gives me optimism. Moore not going to Illinois is the shock of the day

Tilmon, and especially his dad, are open to the game (and yes, Illinois was playing that game hard for a long time). But if you recall from signing day, SLU opened the door with the money offers, but Kansas became the real threat once they knew there was an opening. I still think he ends up at KU or UNC or something like that.
April 26, 20178 yr This could be a very big day for Illinois. Supposedly, Brodgacci (sp?) is announcing sometime this week as well. 6'7 forward is down to Virginia and Illinois I believe. Getting those two would be huge and hopefully fill one of the last two scholarships with Tilmon (unlikely), or a transfer like Bragg
April 26, 20178 yr Signs are pointing in Illinois' direction....Piper is quoted as saying "he's coming"

April 26, 20178 yr I kind of want this recruit to not choose Illinois so I can entertain myself with Illini message boards all night. And yes I'm still an Illini fan
April 26, 20178 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 26, 2017 -> 06:27 PM) Biggest bag of cash. Right? If he sucks, it's the refs fault.
