Yeah, him and Ebanks were the one with that clause in their LOI that let them out of it if Sampson was gone. The other two recruits, Pritchard and Roth, would have to be released from their LOI's by IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palehosefan Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 Butch Davis and John Blake really have it rolling recruiting now. UNC picked up their 2nd top 101 Scout commit today and has several other 4 and 3 star types already in the fold with 10 commitments now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maggsmaggs Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 Stewart is an Illini fan. His cousin I believe is DJ, so thats another in. With Jerrance on board, we will not lose many Illinois recruits, especially ones south of Chicago. I say the odds are 75-ILL, 25-field, and that maybe be understating it.

How good is this kid supposed to be? Northwestern returns everyone, and will this kid help any? I'm always pulling for Northwestern (except when they play IU, of course).

Brian Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Surprised Brandon Paul made it. He was very good at times but also inconsistent. Really hit his stride after the holidays. He could be the best of the bunch of those Weber recruits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerrance didn't recruit Richmond, Weber is the reason they got Simpson, Price was the lead recruiter on Paul and Griffey, for Head Jerrance certainly helped but Lu and the Head family love Weber, Legion certainly was thanks to Jerrance, and DJ committed much earlier than he would have thanks to Jerrance. Bertrand would have been Illini no matter what once he got offered. Keller was a Jerrance guy as well. The fact people are giving all the credit to Howard is absolutely absurd.

They'll be much better than they are this year, that is for sure. I really don't expect a freshman in HS to base his decsion off such a thing regardless.

Jerrance didn't recruit Richmond, you're right, but he sure as hell is the reason why he's sticking with the Illini. It was in some article awhile back. Simpson is nothing special. He will be no better than Shaun Pruitt. They will definitely not be as good next year without Brian Randle who isn't even that great. Yes I do realize they have Jamar coming back next year, but he is not as good as Randle. McCamey really hasn't shown much and I do expect him to get a bit better, but it will be very very hard for them to do good next year, especially considering the rest of the conference will be a lot stronger. This year was a down year for the Big Ten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
