Oh god, not this discussion again. Bruce has not even been able to prove himself and Illini fans are already calling him out. Its really quite sad. He missed out on 2 recruits, big frickin deal. We don't even know if we really know if we lost out on SL. He could of just chosen Duke to either 1) raise his stock for the NBA 2)thought he was doing us a favor by not choosing us 3) didn't want to risk his playing time. But that is besides the point. The fact is all coaches miss out on big-time recruits, which would include Coach K, Roy Williams, and yes, even Bill Self. I feel big-time players don't want to come here while other stars are here, only when they will be assured to run the show, but I mean that with whomever is running the side-lines.
We had a top-100 prospect visit last weekend, he seemed happy. I hope he commits, but if he doesnt we'll move on.
