Depends which scouting service u follow closely. 247 and the crystal ball isn't the only scouting services out there. Bossi from rivals has said in the past iu is in great shape with Wilkes. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Or crazy the things people say on internet websites and pass it along as the truth. For me I would need a little more factual proof then a poster on an Illinois fan site saying that was the case. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I hear you, I grew up with those guys as well but college basketball is a different beast today. Kids can pretty much go anywhere and they know they can get noticed. Does mr basketball mean as much today to these kids as it did in years past. Heck the Indiana all star team had kids not attend because they had other stuff going on. We might of missed out on only 2 years of Gary Harris but we did get 4 years of yogi(some might argue he could of been mr basketball). Would having Zac Irvin on our teams in the last 3 years of made them any better then they already were? In my opinion I don't think they would of been better and we might of missed out on a player like Troy (good Troy) Sent from my iPhone using https://siteowners.tapatalk.com/byo/displayAndDownloadByoApp?rid=74591having' a top rated class doesn't always translate to being successful on the court. Our last top 5 classes 1st year didn't even make the tournament. I still see Wilkes recruitment going like Theo pinson a couple years ago. Most people in Carolina thought he was heading to Bloomington and end the end he choose to play close to home so his family could see

Just curious do u think when the 2017 class is final that Illinois will still have a top 5 class? Kentucky, Duke, North Carolina, Louisville and others are just getting started. No way Illinois ends up with a top 5 class. They are up there now because they got early commitments. It will be disappointing if we don't land Wilkes in my opinion because he was the staffs number 1 target. It's irrelevant if he was a "in state" or "out of state" recruit.

Brandon Randolph (No. 40) tells me he will announce his college decision tomorrow night. Arizona, Syracuse, Oregon, Wake Forest involved. @jeffborzello Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Espn and some others had Miami the favorite in that recruitment. Every scout involved in that one said it was too hard to tell since he and the family kept his recruitment within his circle. Wilkes seems to me like he is weighing his options and has 3 schools he really likes. No way he is worried about a roster spot being open at iu. In my opinion from following his recruitment for 4 years I feel this will be one where the hometown school pulls the 5 Star stud. At least he better because I want a reason to go southport on December 10 for the tournament he will be playing in Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Well he didn't listen to whoever wanted him to go to Georgetown since he went to Nc State Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

I think crean is always looking to upgrade the roster. If a talented big wants to come to iu, there will be a spot. There are many things I worry about when it comes to iu basketball but scholarship numbers will never be one of them. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

Clifton Moore is a late-blooming skilled forward. More of a long-term stock for the Hoosiers but one with definite potential. @adamfinkelstein Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners
